Layout Advise Please

Post by woza »

Been reading through alot of posts of people specs and recommended layouts to try and get a better understanding


Bowler Specs
Right Handed
RPM - 325-350
Speed - 17
Tilt - 5
Axis - 55
PAP - 4 1/4 over 3/4 up

So in summary
Speed Revs - matched
Rotation - Average Range
Tilt - low end range

So I am guessing a ratio 2.5 to 1

Puts Benchmark at 65*4*30

Am I on the right track

Looking for layout options for a full arsenal and then recommendations for sports conditions - Long Medium short - generally matches up well on long struggles with medium/short

Thanks in advance

I come up with 105* Totals due to the low tilt I add another 10* from the Matched speed to revs.
2.5:1 Ratio Asymmetrical Benchmark 75-3-30

I chose the shorter Pin to PAP because of the low tilt.

Asymmetrical Layouts
Totally Strong ................... 60-4-25
Midlane ........................... 50-3.5-35
Benchmark ...................... 75-3-30
Long and Strong .............. 90-3-30
Control ........................... 75-3-50
low flare ......................... 90-2-30

Symmetrical layouts
Benchmark ..................... xx-4-25
Control .......................... xx-4-50 Pin in the ring finger
low flare ........................ xx-5-25
