Rev Rate.

[TotallyDefiant]

What I love about my ball is there is not need for me to put the white tape on my ball in order to count the revolutions due to its color pattern. Typically what I am seeing correct me if I am wrong. But your rev rate in the first 15-20 feet seems to be higher than what it is for the full length of the lane. Is this correct or am I just way off base here?

While it is possible for the rev rate to be higher in the first 15-20 feet, I don't think it is a common thing to occur.

If you throw the ball at 18 MPH, your rev rate would have to be in excess of 700 RPM for the rev rate to be highest in the first 15-20 feet, than for the full length.

Again that assumes they haven't flooded the lanes the full 60 feet, gutter to gutter.

I'm gonna have to go to the lanes and try to figure all this out now lol. I've always been curious of what mine is just cause but never knew exactly how to determine what it is.

I did just that at practice today. Found the PAP on my ball and ran tape up to just above the finger holes. Found that my revolutions are right at 375 at 17 mph.
