To add to this since I have a ball with a 6" pin, I can say that this is what I see happen. Your flare rings are pretty much on top of one another. The small distance where there is a space between them, the space is less than the oil ring itself.

What would recommend for strokers with low ball speeds?

Besides lessons to improve your ball speed, and rev rate, I need more info to give me an idea as to what lane conditions you need the ball for.

House shot, medium-light oil.

What's wrong with the black widow pearl you have now?

I have a Black Widow with the pin drilled over the middle finger, and the ball still flares about 4-5 inches. Could this just be from the Black Widow having .06 of differential?

Is there a weight hole in the ball?

Nope 3/8 side 3/8 finger

If you have a lower Track, then the pin over the middle fingers is probably more like 5" than 6" that is why it still flares so much.

This is why it is important to measure ball layouts from the pap instead of from where the pin is on your grip. If you measure from the pap you will be able to match your ball reaction better to what you want.

Nothing is wrong with the pearl, but the ball was drilled conventional pin (45 degrees) and not from PAP. The driller told me that I can do more with the ball from my release. I also had asked for one with top weight 3 and pin 2-3, instead he sold me the one he had on stock with top weight 2 and pin 1-2. My original choice was the Ebonite Bash or Clash, but he said it's better to go for a high performance ball. I've really enriched my knowledge of the sport because of this site. I'm going to check out Erin's x bro in law Bud at Homestead or Skip at Cambrian. I was trying to get a basic idea of the layout for my next ball. I wanted to know what pin layout (pin above or below fingers) is recommended for a stroker with low revs on a house shot with medium-light oil.
