Im getting ready to drill a 2 inch pin to pap, 4 inch pin to pap and a 6 inch pin to pap......3 different ball reactions, 1 spare ball. Done Thanks for the videos. Im amazed at how many people are afraid to try short pins, so im going to show them shortly, oh yea.

What's the best ball you have drilled short pin?

[@jamesm8360]

I'm drilling up a UC3 with the 2 inch pin. Asymmetrical core, it flares so little carry down. I have a Lung disorder, so have to throw the ball slower. If I need smooth and hit, 2 inch pin. If I need long (slower speed), than 6 inch pin, good arc to pocket. And 4 inch pin for strong roll when oil is heavier for me. Will update after drilling it. Good bowling to all.

Update: I been throwing a mix spare ball my last 2 sets. I shot 709, and 716. Yes a mix spare ball. Drilled straight up mind you. So i wanted to build my arsenal from least hooking (flare), to next ball up or more flare then previous ball. So i went with a brunswick twist entry ball. I drilled it with a SHORT PIN 2 inch to pap. Its a symmetrical core, with a factory polished cover. Im only throwing about 15 mph until i get my strength back this is why i went with this ball. Oh boy......first game on fresh house shot it would push down lane until i hit dry friction, then it would corner and continue to pins and continue threw pin deck splitting the 8,9 for a strike. Hooked a little more on the fresh than i thought but very controllable , had to move into 15 to 8 first game for a 199. Now after lanes got some use ball came alive i shot 245 second game with folks watching wanted to know what the hell im throwing that carrys so well. Second game i moved right and was 13 to 8 on lane. 3rd game i had 11 strikes for a 267, yep first 5, left a ringing 10, that i missed. Off the sheet for a 711 for my first SHORT PIN 2 inch to pap. 3rd game was a nice surprise as i was looking at 13 and now could swing out to 8 or 7 or 6 back to pocket for a strike. The scores arent important, the ball DID NOT QUIT! No roll out at the pocket! Im a stroker, off the hand it is a bit lazy looking as it travels down lane, then about 40 foot length, it starts to corner turn towards pocket but very controlled movement until it hits the pocket, which at that point it flat continues through the pins and finishes towards the 8 pin or splits the 8......9..... well im impressed, I believe i just convinced 5 bowlers to try short pin drillings tonight! Thanks Mikey.......Will update more as i progress through this transition. Please have at least 1 SHORT PIN in your bag!
