This is a twist bank I have posted before, both the ob and cb are 1/4" off of the rail as I recall.
I have been having problems posting shots for the members have not been able to open them.
So this is a trial run, and let me know if you guys can open it. If this works then I want to put up another bank that John H. liked, but I got to find it!
Thanks, and enjoy!

Great shot...I definitely do not have that one in my bag of tricks...yet. Thanks for sharing.
As I recall I put an unique stroke on that twist bank, to where the cb spins like a top. Not sure if that is necessary or not, but I believe Doc was successful in doing this bank, and he stated; " that yes the cb spined like a top".

On twist banks the closer you are to the ob the more spin you can transfer. I general use a slightly elevated butt, but not much. Freshly cleaned balls are generally harder to twist, I believe this also depends on what is used to clean them that makes them slick. Your draw will improve but not throw. I say this because you get frustrated as hell but it could be just to clean of balls.

If you go to back pages of this forum about 3 or so pages back, you will find my thread devoted to only twist banks. There are a total of 26.
If you continue to search back pages you will find several banks that I have done.

Thanks Billy Jackets and Crabbcatjohn for your favorable comments, I really appreciate it!
