There are several reasons why this is a good thing.
Bowling ball pin placement and top weight.
While shopping around for a new bowling ball i checked out a couple of my local pro shops and a few online retailers.
The static balance side weight finger weight etc has little influence in ball reaction and is lest significant in the overall ball selection.
It is also the point around which the ball wants to rotate.
Having either too much or too little top weight can have an effect on the after drilling reaction and is the major factor in the need for size of and placement of any extra weight holes you may end up needing wanting.
Given an infinite length and time a ball will eventually rotate around the pin either with the pin down on the lane or on top of the ball.
Top weight is defined as the actual weight difference between the bottom half and the top half of the bowling ball.
That being said you choose pin distance based on the intended layout.
Top weight is added by the manufacture so when you put holes in the bowling ball the weight that is removed will keep the ball in legal weight with usbc rules.
The drilling layout pin placement i e the top of the weight block should compliment the.
The pin marks the top of the core inside the bowling ball.
In this creating the difference blog we take a look at how top weight effects ball performance.
The core design is the engine that drives the ball.
When a bowling ball is designed the ideal top weight is around 3 ounces.
Chances are that if you are noticing your ball speed decreasing it is indeed time to consider changing to 14 pounds.
P1 and p2 holes generally will favor shorter pins p3 and p4 holes will favor longer pins.
Bowling ball technology and design in lighter balls has never been better.
The cg placement has such a minuscule effect on ball reaction that it is considered inconsequential.
The proper core will enhance the ball s performance.
The way you throw the ball has nothing to do with top weight.
A dodo scale the scale used to measure static weight of bowling balls is needed to weigh the ball for top weight after drilling.
The term top weight refers to the static imbalance that is built into the ball as an effect of the manufacturing process.
This allows for the holes to be drilled into the bowling ball removing top weight so that the ball s top.
If a bowling ball had zero topweight there is a real good chance after drilled it could be illegal.
Plenty of young people would benefit from dropping the weight of their ball too.
