Matching up my Total
« on: January 31, 2007, 09:11:15 AM »
I had a NIB total land in my lap. 15lb with 3.9 TW and a 2inch pin.

I am kinda trying to eliminate an Ebonite Crossfire from my lineup. I would like a complete overlap of the two. Ebonite has given me excellent tools in finding the pocket with that and the V2 sanded, but they were never score monsters. All of my honors and acholades are with Brunswick hardware.

Heads up:

Same pin distances
Total is 2.514 RG and .05 Diff
Crossfire is 2.47 and .045 Diff

Crossfire is drilled roughly 3 3/8ths from pap to pin and CG (super strong ball)


Good idea to drill up the total the same or similar?

Hmm.

You want the pin down? How bout if I went about 6" and went under my middle finger. I have never tried this layout.

Well my best drillings are pin downs and low Cg's. Im afraid ill end up with the I was getting out of my ultimate with pin over ring finger with cg stacked. It was dud on hook and backend, but it scored.


This also happens to be one of the earlier ones. Rough buff dull finish?

Haha, I do want a complete overlap, I threw the 6" inch distance out there for kicks to hear your thoughts.


Pin is in the 8 o'clock position from the ring finger (lh). It's down and out, almost touching the ring finger.

The Cg is inward. Close to the center of my palm.

I have my pap. I just dont have the distances from my palm

I think you are in for a dissapointment on this "overlap" concept unless you polish the snot out of the Total or have your crossfire at 200 grit, I feel the total is much stronger.

most people are under the misconception of the crossfire being weak. It is a flat out monster. it was def. an elements ball that threw me off. It bites oil no matter what. We'll see. Ill post an update when its drilled back home.

My strong red zone, slate quantum, v2 in sanded form, cherry bomb cant touch it.
