I need more information, telling me you are a power stroker is not really good enough.dozer324 wrote:Looking for layout advice for a game breaker 3, on a THS, medium volume. sometimes can be a bit wet dry.

To get good layout information without watching you bowl I need accurate release specs.
Tilt, Rotation , Speed and Revs

Re: layout advice GB3
I always start with the Benchmark and work from there.dozer324 wrote:Looking for layout advice for a game breaker 3, on a THS, medium volume. sometimes can be a bit wet dry.

Your stats are matched speed to revs with med tilt and rotation.
95* Total and 1.5:1 Ratio, Asym Benchmark ...... 57-4-38
I recommend a Control layout if you are experiencing wet/dry conditions.
Drilling angle to the Cg ....... 65-4 3/8-55 balance hole 1.5" below midline on the VAL
This is a Pin in the ring finger layout

GB3 is symmetric, does that change anything? and when you say pin in the ring finger, I need to shift the grip placement after laying out the ball to get the pin lined up with the ring finger?

Re: layout advice GB3
Yes I know the GB3 is symmetric. The Dual Angle system starts with the Asymmetrical Benchmark, then all adjustments are made from there. So that is where I start.dozer324 wrote:

The Layout I gave 65-4 3/8-55 is the Symmetric Control layout for your specs.
The numbers I gave will be really close and yes you adjust the grip to make sure the ring finger drills the pin out completely.
