Pin to pap distance is one of the dozens of factors that can affect the on lane motion of a bowling ball.
It is controlling how the core is oriented at the moment of release.

Also what pin distance is best for which type of layout.

The only difference is the psa to pap distance.
A viewer asked about effects of pin to cg distance and.
