Layouts for 2 Gusto's

Post by reds1975 »

i just received 2 Gusto's. 1st ball is 3-4" pin with 1.9 top. 2nd ball is 3-4" pin with 2.7 top.
Looking to drill ball # 2 like a 30 x 5.5 x 60. Ball # 1 I am considering a Rico drilling because of the low top weight.
I am looking to use these balls on a short sport shot like 33 to 35 ft with strong back ends in the middle of the lane and tight outsides.
I would love to hear what Mo would suggest for me.
What hand you bowl with-Right Handed
Speed –about 14.5 mph
Rev Rate-285
Initial Axis Rotation-about 30 %
Initial Axis Tilt-17%
What surface you want the ball for? Synthetic
What lane condition you are bowling on most of the time-for this layout sport shot-33 ft with strong middles and heavy outside oil
Do you think you are speed or revolutions dominate? Revolutions

Any suggestions or idea's?? Thanks in advance for any help!

I always start by figuring out your benchmark.
Your rev dominance puts you at 105* total
your tilt/rotation with rev dominance is a 1.75:1 ratio
Asymmetrical Benchmark 65-4-40

Your suggestion 30-5.5-60 basically puts the Pin in or very close to your middle finger.
I would suggest (pin in middle finger) 45-5.5-~60
A slightly larger drilling angle so your ball isn't revving up too early. Your low rotation gets the ball to read the lane early as it is.
I think a Rico type drilling would be a good way to complement. ~45-5-80 P4

Not a fan of Rico! It's not valid mathematically or dynamically.
