My BWB drilling (yaa pic's)

[ravenhammer]

Any way got it drilled up today, decided to go as close as possible to my BW and use surface changes to amplify the different reaction between them.

Any guesses as how it compared?

[drw02]

about a foot early with roll and 5-7 boards stronger?

[BubbaRay]

I would say it starts to roll just past midlane and has a very strong backend

Now the pics are clickable to enlarge if that matters.

It was hooking about 2 feet sooner and 8 inches less than my BW and continued to hook through the pindeck. I hope that it will do a lot better in league as I was bowling on unknown conditions. I was expecting much more snap than it provided.

What drill is that? could be #4, but i cant tell...

I have #1 on mine and the snap is rediculous, ill post a couple pics in a bit

Shouldn't the thumb hole be closer to the HMB for more backend snap? Mine are only an inch and a half from the HMB. Those look longer,or is it just the pics?

Inch and a half seems kind of far companred to mine :p I have pics posted on my thread if you want to see a drill for good length and backend...

But yes, rowdy is right, the thumb should be a bit closer to the HMB for more backend..

[ravenhammer]

It's 3 inches on both. My BW flips pretty good but not the BWB:confused:

[Tuff01ram]

The HMB on mine is 1 inch and it has tremondous snap on the backend, for the way I roll!

The backend reaction is based on the angle made from drawing a line from your Mass Bias to your pin, and then your pin to your PAP. The angle made where the 2 lines intersect at the pin determine its reaction. The smaller than angle, the more sudden the hook, and the larger the angle, the more length you get.

It doesn't really have anything to do with the distance from your thumb.

When I first read it, sudden made it sound like back end reaction, instead of arching motion.

The Larger Angle will help created the backend reaction most people think they need.

I've always thought the strongest position for the mb was halfway between your track and your val; therefore, 1-2 from the thumb hole would roughly be the halfway point for most people. If the mass bias is 4-5 inches away, you can almost be certain is wasn't put halfway between the track the val.

Thanks, words seem similar at 1:30am :p

Not a problem, your statement help me. (Had to re-read it a couple of times.)
