Novel Concept/Idea: The Bowling ball does not matter??

[Mike White]

A very good read! How you drill the ball does matter, along with the surface! Two balls drilled differently with same surface will show huge differences! I have two pin up balls, same make and model, Deadly Aims,,

one pin up center, the other kicked out even with ring finger.

pin center same fresh factory surface does a sweet gradual arc to the pocket!

Pin even with ring finger, kicked out, a long arc but hokey stick move to the pocket

Good article link above.

Do you read what you yourself type?

"A long arc, but hokey(sp) stick move to the pocket."

That is a contradiction right in itself.

Hockey stick move, means skid straight, then a quick change in direction, then roll to the pocket.

A long arc means less skid, and gradual change in direction.

It is hard to get a ball to hook twice.

ITs a matter of semantics Mike!! I will make it simple and produce a video of the difference in movement due to drilling with both balls given the same surface.

NO I rarely proof read, but I am glad you do! Keep me on my toes Mike!

Sorry, i forgot. You are right about the surfaces though, i would like to see the video and the difference in drilling between the 2 balls. That would help some of our fellow members.

Varipapa was a great competitive bowler as well. Many think his wins in back to back all stars in 1947-1948 at the ages of 56 & 57 are among the greatest achievements in sports history. The all star was the predecessor to the us open and had a 100+ game format.
