Crisis Pearl Drilling Ideas
« on: December 23, 2004, 01:02:16 PM »
If someone could read my review of the Vendetta Pearl and give me an opinion on drilling The Crisis Pearl to compliment it I would appreciate it.

Also, has anyone thrown the Crisis Pearl on blown heads/track like the last game of a Sport League... What did it do?

Dave,..I have a Crisis Pearl drilled with the pin above and to the right of the finger hole, cg is about 1/2" on the pos side of the midline on the midline. Surface was taken down with wet green scotch bright on a spinner, then came back with B'wick 800 factory polish to a good sheen. This ball is very smooth, and hard arcing, playing in when there's a burnt track. It doesn't jump off the dry,..which I really like. I changed the surface because the factory polish seemed to make the ball a little jerky. jim

Thanks! I was hoping you had already experimented with changing the surface.
