Title: Just ordered a Hellraiser Revenge
Post by: Deadman on May 17, 2012, 09:25:20 AM
Just ordered one, and i'm seeing what everyone else thinks of the layout for it. Reading on here and looking at reviews alot of people like the ball which is one of the reasons i ordered it, along with needing a good heavy oil hooking ball.

The most luck ive had with balls are when they are drilled pin above the fingers. Looking at Brunswicks recommended drilling for asymmetrical balls, i think i might go with the one that has the pin above the ring finger for length with the high track. I don't really want it to pick up mid lane much.

Any Suggestions?

It all depends on what you are looking for the ball to do. My Revenge is pin above my middle finger with the mb about and inch right of my thumb. It goes thru the heads very easy and has a nice kick on the back end. I would recommend going between 4 1/2 inches all the way up to 6 inches from your PAP depending on what you are wanting.

Did you follow a certain drilling by Brunswick? Pin up always works for me

Got mine drilled yesterday. My local pro shop got a brand new ball drill, and the owner is friends with Mo Pinel. He came in to show them the drill, and he actually ended up drilling my ball! All i told him was i wanted it pin up and strong. Drilled it like so and let me tell you, it fit like a glove...perfect. First ball ever I didn't have to work the thumb out AT ALL. I had a PBA league that night and we were bowling on chameleon. I got the ball in the 10th frame of the first game. Used it my fill shot and worked well...hooks alot which is what I wanted. Tomorrow in my house shot league Ill be using it so we will see!

Several guys throwing the ball in my summer sport league.  Most of them are using it polished.
