WOW!!
Got mine a few days ago. Drilled D/T layout #1 (or close to it). Ball was 15oz, 1-2.5 pin, 3.45 top. Put pin just slightly under ring (not as far right as the layout chart shows), left CG in center of grip.
This is my first D/T ball that was drilled for me (threw about 4 balls with a friends Black Vendetta and a Cure Pearl, but couldn't get a good read cause the grip was now where near close).
With the VPP, the hitting power on this ball is amazing, a distinct crack at the pins. Best I can describe that ball is a "hard, controlled, arc" through the whole lane.
Wood house, some moderate carry down, and threw two games after a few practice balls to get loose and work the thumb out. Had 236 (two opens) with the last 8 strikes, the two frames I didn't strike - 10 pin (flat on the release), and a 4 pin, tugged the ball (didn't have my plastic with me or I would have made the spares, this practice session was all about seeing what the VPP would do). Next game, front 10, then 10 pin (again release problem, but this time not being flat but bumping it out too wide).
Overall I was impressed. I even tried a few different hand posistions and the ball acted the same.
Will post another review after a weekend tourney.
