Question
Hi, I have been bowling for a couple of years now and have bought a lot of balls. I never really had a favorite drilling since my pap has changed a bit over the years. But i guess my pap is kinda weird its 3" over 1" down. I have had some problems with hitting finger holes. So i was wonderin if you could give me some layout suggestions that i could use since i just got 2 new balls. Thanks A Lot.

Answer
I would recheck your PAP.  The 1 inch down could be a problem but the 3 inches over should make up for that.  The horizontal number would place your track far away from your track.

What kind of balls do you use now and where is the pin?  What are the 2 new balls?
