heavier oil drilling
« on: March 16, 2013, 10:23:07 PM »
I am curious if it is better to drill a ball pin under or pin over for heavier conditions, I have a ball that I drilled with a rico drilling or basically pin in center of grip thinking it would be good on heavier shots. just looking for some input, if you need to know the ball is a Brunswick revolver.

the factors that influence a ball motion are:

coverstock - 50% of total reaction
core type - 20% of total reaction
texture - 15% of total reaction
layout & tweaks - 15% of total reaction

the above data is from a very knowledgeable person in the industry

point is, work with a reputable shop and they will be able to dial in what you are looking for

I ordered another Brunswick revolver, like this ball and they are cheap right know, question is do I drill it with 4x4x2 like storm says or maybe longer pin to pap thinking it would store more and finish stronger on the backend, actually covering more boards.
