  • Tim you are way off, look at the other videos before you arrive at a 8/14 and "leave the math to me". You just left it to me.........

  • it's 6.86 over 12

  • Wow, I would not hire that guy. He's Probably management and hasn't swung a tool in a decade or so.....

  • If you are offering expert advice please finish the advice completely.

    4/7 x 2/2 is 8 over 14 ;

    so you're pitch is 6 over 12 or 6.5 over 12;

    WHY DO I NEED TO KNOW THE PITCH?

  • First!!
