John, if done correctly, this ball will not roll early. In fact, it'll give you more length than anything else. After drilling the ball with the pin on your axis, place a weight hole 10" from the center of your grip, leaving 3/4 side weight. You won't have to worry about hitting the weight hole if the pin IS on your axis, becasue the ball won't flare.
This drilling is good for playing outside lines and/or when the backends are dry. When the front starts to hook and you start moving levt, but now there is carrydown and the ball starts leaving 10 pins and/or comes up light, it's time to put it away. Good luck with it. =:^D
