Need clarification on the WIKI fitting guide (linear finger

I have a drilling appointment today, and I need some clarification.
The Morich fitting instructions include a table of suggested finger pitches in relation to linear thumb pitch.

But What exactly is meant by forward/reverse?
My Drill sheet lists pitches in relation to the center of the ball
So with the thumb an up Arrow is forward, and a down arrow is reverse.
On the fingers it’s the exact opposite. Up Arrow is reverse, Down Arrow is Forward.

Now when the Morich fitting guide suggests forward for the fingers, which one is it then? Towards the center of the ball or away?

Forward fingers (or thumb) is in towards the palm of your hand.

Hello TonyPR

Thank you for the clarification.
That was my initial thought as well.


I'm using this drill sheet at the moment: http://www.jayhawkbowling.com/Pro_s_Cor ... ut.jpg.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

So when I find an online drill sheet, that only has an up-arrow on the fingers indicating linear pitch, is it forward or reverse then? Most other drill sheets don't have seperate boxes for forward/reverse, they just put in an arrow.

The jayhawk drill sheet you have there tells you what you need to know.

The directions for forward and reverse are the same on all sheets, the boxs are just a place to write the numbers. Some sheets just have a line, some just a cross with arrows on it. It doesnt matter which, the directions for forward and reverse are same.
