I just received this ball as a gift from a famlly member.My problem is that i think this ball will just hook to much for my style of bowling.I am sixty-six yrs.old and play down and in at around 15mph.My pap is 4 3/4 over and 3/4 up and i am right handed.I bowl on Brunswick Synthetic lanes that are oiled on the medium side.Any help would be appericated,thank you.

Pin above middle finger, CG kicked positive to allow for reaction tweaking X-holes. This layout would be easiest to do with a 3-4" pin.

Try putting the pin 5 1/4" from your PAP, and the CG 4 1/2" from your PAP. It should probably end up close to what J Mac said. You can easily tune the cover if this still hooks too much, but it should probably work out good for you.

You might have been better off with the Rival. I agree with the layouts suggested, however you may want to adjust the cover with polish.
This ball is a 4000 pad OBF. You may want to try Ebonite's Factory Finish polish, or even their Delayed polished.

But first I would try the box finish, and then adjust.
