Question
I'm more of a stroker type bowler, where is the best location to drill a gravity shift bowling ball and at what oz. forward on the weight block.
I would place the pin near the ring finger, above it if possible. Place the CG 2 inches right of your center of grip and make sure the Key is right of the thumb hole. If needed, the extra hole should be just below your PAP. This will help get the ball down the lane and make a sharp move at the breakpoint. You can alter the surface to adapt to the lane conditions you bowl on.
Good luck,
Chip
