It's so good to see someone else who only throws the bowling ball with two fingers, no thumb. This channel really does help me when figuring out what type of ball reaction i may see on the lanes. Thanks!
I have about 5 videos with the Heckler. It is definitely a MUST have for us no thumb guys. I have had the ball for about a month. I am a 221 book avg bowler. Over 40 games with the Heckler my avg with that ball is 243. I shot a 300 with it in the first 10 games. The ball is INSANE!!
this core can be drilled to be a low-diff tour ball with diff in the 30's with a low pin-CoG, or a high-diff high-intermediate ball with a tall pin-CoG like the one you demo'ed. The difference between the values when you change the finger location is major!
I appreciate Dv8 focusing on the no thumb using bowlers, as I am one, but I feel they have a ways to go to make it worth our time. As he said in the video the balls they have released thus far just haven't been good enough in the categories they precide in to be worth using over balls made for "traditional" bowlers.
I used their layout guide in 1 and my normal layout on the other. My go to layout is 45/4.5/45 The one using the middle zone and their no thumb guide is WAY better. I have it drilled right in the middle zone for the most control and its layout is 55/6.5/40 The ball is INSANE!!! I sent my PSO to the Brunswick meeting in Denver before release and they spent 3 full hours one day showing them exactly how to drill this ball. I suggest drilling another using the guide and watch and see how much of a difference it actually makes. Check out some of my Heckler videos. I think I have 4 or 5 on it over the last month or so. Drilled that way, I can actually strike from 10 aiming at 8 all the way across every channel as far left as 45 on fresh oil. Even was using from 25 aiming between 10 and 15 on a burned down lane. I have a 300 on fresh oil in league and a 299 and 279 on burned lanes with the one I drilled using their guide.
I would describe it as fresh-ish. Out of respect to the folks at Weston lanes, I typically use the extra pair they oil for leagues on the following day so as to not create additional expense for them. So, the lanes are always unused but the pattern does have quite a bit of resting time from the point of oiling to when I review. This also allows me to create a reasonable amount of oil transition without having to throw each piece 60 times as we would see during a typical league night.

Is this a fresh oiling?

I started throwing thumbless due to my non-traditional grip causing arthritis in my middle finger. Almost 62 and biggest change in my game ever.
Glad its working out for you my friend!
@bowlersparadise2255 one of our hired guns in league owns a 226 ave...no thumb, one hand bowler.
No thumb? Shoot, I bowl no hands. Jk 😂
