Do Layouts Make a difference? | Not Urethane Blue Hammer | The Hype | Bowlersmart 

That 3 inch pin looks perfect for the fresh Cheetah. The 4.5 might be good once the front of the pattern breaks down.

You did a brief promo recently for the CB Gripper. I got a couple of them, and they are outstanding! I don't have any idea how they work, but I didn't even realize that I had issues with grip consistency. Now I don't throw a shot without using my CB Gripper! No residue, good for throwing at unruly teammates; what's not to like? I highly recommend this excellent product.

I'm getting back into bowling after 5 years of not bowling and your videos have helped a lot. Thank you!

nah the intro song go hard for no reason 😂

Another great video sir. That pattern looked extremely difficult!

The 3 inch pin ball looks really good for you hutch. That should be in the bag

Awesome video. My OCD wants the two different layouts to be on the opposing balls for aesthetic purposes due to the pins. I know it doesn’t matter, just a weirdo haha.

Pin to PAP dictates flare :) On a ball with a symmetric core, a pin to PAP distance between 3 and 4 inches gives you the most flare potential, with 3 3/8” pin to PAP giving the maximum flare. I just laid out my NU Blue with a 4x30 layout and it’s absolutely perfect on shorter patterns!

You come back and ill bowl with ya!!!!!!! Im in The west burbs now

Excellent game Charles with the 3” pin..

I'd buy that ball today if i didn't already have a purple hammer. That baby blue cover is eye catching.

I heard eyeballs and damn looked around in a panic for a DI, made my day lol. Great video good tips, clean fundamentals!

I used the NU Hammer this week on THS, keeping the speed low, and just learning what the ball would do. The THS is a lighter version and dries up quickly. It is a beast! 241 (1 split), 248, 236 (1 split) 725. Will take more learning to see if it will be used all night, but definitely a keeper for late in the set.

3 inch looked very good. Would like to have seen you move right and play right up 3 board with an up the back end over end release. The percentage way to play cheetah.

I got lost in there somewhere...I guess for me the shorter pin (if that's what I saw) was the one I liked best. Thanks for the video.

My Tour-D was drilled like the 4" pin. Had to change it. Hit soft and few strikes.

I had 2 purple hammers with almost these exact layouts, and I had the same results. Going forward I'm gonna be drilling my urethane strike ball with a shorter pin

Good for you for getting out of Chicago!!

CHARLES!!! Good stuff here my man! Makes me want to grab a 3” pin next!

My personal opinion is that layouts not only matter, they matter way more than people give them credit for. You're never going to drill a ball stronger than it's max potential, but you can absolutely drill a ball weak to the point it does almost nothing. I have 2 Hustle Camos one drilled 4x30, and one drilled 6x45, and they are night an day different reactions. The 4" layout is early and very strong... the 6" layout barely moves on anything other than very dry lanes. I also have 2 Raw solids... 1 drilled short pin 2.25x45 and one with my standard 5x30, and again super different. The 2.25" layout rolls off my hooks a mile... and 5" layout is way cleaner with late midland roll and moderate hook. Anyone who says layouts don't matter, or are only 10% of ball motion, are full of it. If you're throwing a ball on an appropriate shot, you'll see the difference in layouts clear as day. It's only when you're throwing balls on either way too much oil, or way too little oil, that the layout differences get overshadowed. And if you're do that, and don't realize it, you're not the guy I'd be taking advice from in the first place.

Gotta hit the 4inch on with 180 grit

Pulled out the purple hammer for a game today it doubles as a spare ball,Played 25 to 7 and carried everything. Not convinced i need this one yet

Can someone explain in detail what is a 3 inch pen and a 4.5 inch pen, and how does that affect the way the ball rolls down the lane?

shoutout NC man, I'm in winston-salem

Looks like im drilling mine like my purp daddy (purple hammer) lol

I’d want it right in the middle. Maybe 3.5.. based on what they’re doing for you.

Should have recorded before I got rid of the extra outer limits. Same angles kept the 4.5 pin dropped the 3 3/8 it was so bad for me lol let my teammate have it. Either way good video Hutch. Actually seeing then side by side is huge.

Yooooo The Theorem Vs The Brutal Collision 👌🏾👌🏾🔥🔥

You don’t normally change layouts right? If so, will you start now?

So I'm JUST getting back into bowling, I have a black widow 2.0 hybrid right now, and am looking for something I can throw a little straighter.. maybe on dryer lanes. Am I correct in assuming this NU would be a good choice?

3:50 voice changed and I thought that I was watching GG channel for a few seconds 😂.

Layouts only really matter for dynamic cores. If the core doesn't flare or do much, changing the layout is not NEARLY as important as changing surface prep. I plan on getting a second NU Blue using the same layout but with a 2000-polished finish (vs 500-grit sanded).

great video

Never seen a gutter almost knock the 6 pin down.

What’s your speed and rev

Hopefully you answer, on fence about the quality of shirts. I am a XL on good quality T shirts a Walmart T shirt XX. Please let me know so I can get the pink before it’s out and the green. Are they cool wick like yours

What was the speed?

Your thumb and your back spin, quit the spin and stand to your right and hit the 1 pin. No curve, release your thumb

Where are you out of?

Yeah you said the 17 mark but you hit more like 14 or 13.

Forcing it, she'll be inconsistent with the floor

What spare ball is that?

Weee wozers…. You said it hhahahah

If you want to see what’s it’s like to throw a bad shot with any ball watch these videos. I watch just to see you miss your mark every ball you throw. 🤦🏻‍♂️
