4 new balls to drill. Need layout suggetions.
« on: January 10, 2005, 11:29:19 AM »
Ok, got 4 new balls, and I have some ideas for layouts but I wanted to get some opinions.

Warp Zone: 1-2" pin, 3.2 ounces top weight. I was thinking pin under ring, cg in palm to keep the flare down. (cg in palms kep the flare down right?) I want this to be a hard arc/control ball.

Nemesis: 2-3" pin, 3.1 ounces top weight. I was thinking pin under bridge, cg swung right a bit. I want this also to be a hard arc, but want it to wait till a little farther down the lane.

Intense Inferno: 2-3" pin, 3.0 ounces top weight. I was thinking pin over ring, cg stacked, or even swung out with a weight hole for skid/flip. SKID FLIP! I want this ball to be used what its ment for, to go long and turn hard.

Chrome/Yellow Power Groove: 2-3" pin, 3.3 ounces top weight. I was thinking another skid/flip drilling. Pin over ring maybe? I want to try a pin over bridge to see what it does, but Im not sure. My PAP is about 5 3/4 over, 3/4 up. (last time I checked) What type of reaction would a pin over bridge, cg either stacked, or swung a bit right to under the ring finger give me? Same thing, I want it to be skid/flip.


ON EDIT: I went and figured out my PAP, and it appears to be about 5 1/4 over, and about 1/4 up. Not sure what type of tracking this is? (high, low, medium???) But thats what I came up with. Actually it turned out the ball I was throwing has a weighthole RIGHT on my PAP, which is a total coincedence because the driller didnt know mine lol. So yea, knowing that, can you give me some drill suggestions? I added on to the end of each ball what I want it to do. Please guys, Im going tommorow to get these drilled, need help!

PSA should be marked i would think.

Your track?  Seems somewhat high.  I think "high" tracks are 5" over and more or something.

VAL= vertical axis line.  The vertical line that goes through your PAP.

ok guys and girls (if any girls are posting, just being PC lol), you have to realize I am a complete IDIOT when it comes to the actual drilling of balls. If my PAP is 5 1/4 over, and 1/4 up, what does it make these drills? I need actual terms. (pin over *insert finger*, cg to the right of *whatever* psa *wherever it should be* in comparison to thumb/fingers wutever) PLEASE! Im dumb.

Ok so how does this look:

Warp Zone-pin under ring, cg right with a weighthole
Nemesis-??still not sure??
Intense- Pin over bridge, cg out right
Power Groove-Pin over bridge, cg stacked.

Nemesis will probably be pin under ring, cg stacked. Sound ok?

This isnt in the wanted/for sale/trade section guys! KEEP IT TO YOURSELVES! I need thoughts on drilling. Would a pin over bridge drilling be snappy for me?
