Balance Hole:
High rev rate bowlers should not place balance holes more than 5" from center of span.

Mass Bias Degree Placement:
Mass Bias Degree Placements are determined by the angle formed by a line drawn from the pin to the Mass Bias mark versus a line drawn from the pin to the PAP. Mass Bias Locations are a secondary dynamic influence in determining ball reaction. The pin position relative to the PAP is the most important influence.
The Follwoing are the influences of the Mass Bias placements:

  • 0 degree Mas Bias
    • Early Roll with smooth breakpoint
    • Best for heavier, fresh oil patterns with clean backends
  • 45 degree Mass Bias
    • Early Roll with strong breakpoint
    • Bestfor heavier oil patterns, lower ball tracks and faster ball speeds
  • 75 degree Mass Bias
  • Medium Length with more angular breakpoint
  • Best for inside angles, higher ball tracks and medium oil patters
  • 90 degree Mass Bias
    • Medium length with smooth breakpoint
    • Best for medium oil patterns with clean backends or slower ball speeds
  • 135 degree Mass Bias
    • Medium length with hook/set backend
    • Best for higher rev rates to control over reaction

All layouts are for right-handed players. Please reverse the layout for left-handed players.
