You are matched speed to revs but your slightly high Tilt and Rotation make you slightly speed dominant. Sweetspot =85* totals 1:1.25 Ratio

Hi Eric, are you sure about the benchmark angle sum of 105 and benchmark layout?

Re: Ball and layout suggestions
I am sure now that I messed this one up. I added to the totals when I should have subtracted. I had the Ratios backwards too. I will edit my original post.deanchamp wrote:Hi Eric, are you sure about the benchmark angle sum of 105 and benchmark layout?
