Sysmetric Cores....Pin under RF and CG kicked out 1 1/2" to 2" max.

Assymetric Cores....Pin under RF and MB on the VAL and not more than 5" max. from PAP

Rather than using different drillings on balls for different looks, I usually but not always, use the same drilling on different balls to get the different looks.

Works for me.

Folks,

Who gives a rat's *** where the holes are with respect to your finger holes? That has zippo to do with bowling. When are any of you going to realize that?

Yumpin' Yiminy.



Charlie, I'm shocked assuming I read this reply correctly. You're suggesting (?) that drilling pattern has no influence on ball reaction? In that case, how about pin-axis for everything? I've learned, for example (through long, expensive, often painful) experience that pin above ring or at 1:30 to ring (i.e., 4.5-5" pin-pap, high rg) works best for me for a late midlane flare read with energy retention on the backend. I've also learned I prefer the 'look' of low Rg balls in spite of their downside of losing cleanliness through the heads in many instances. I think that's the general gist of this thread ...

Maybe charlest's saying that the important thing is the pin/mb distance with respect to your PAP?  Whereas most of the reply we have so far, they only say where the pin/cg/mb are in relation to their fingers holes.

Yes, this is what he is saying. Its probably mostly due to the fact that people don't know their pap/don't bother to actually measure out their favorite layouts...

Great control and A LOT of movement.  Pin over bridge and MB kicked out has worked well for me; it gives me decent length and a BIG backend move.

I don't really have a favorite layout, but I do tend to keep my pins from 4.5-6" from my PAP(5 3/4 over, 3/8 up).

I am going to have to put my vote in as the "girard" layout from a few months ago.  I decided to lay this out on a Goliath, and have been very pleased.  Great read... excellent carry....  no problems.

anything is workable as long as the ball fits like a glove in your hand...an uncomfortable is as good as an unusable ball....
