Phil, I have to admit an increasing fondness for the Element and Vendetta.  Are you planning any additional balls with the Element's or Vendetta's core and a variation of the soaker coverstock?

I found a drill that I think I'm going to like....

I had a Vendetta Solid, 5" pin, drilled with the CG right above the thumb hole with the pin about 1:30 an inch from the fingers.  It goes plenty long (polished) and have a really nice arc to it.  This layout has taken the "bouce" effect I'm always fighting with.

Phil, tell your boy Don over at Astro Bowl he did a good job.  I need to throw it some more, but so far it's very readable.

I have a blank Thing, but I'm going to save it and try this layout on the new Thing.  My fingers are itching to throw it!

Well, I didn't drive to San Antonio to bowl the tournament.  I went there to get some layout ideas from Chad.  I needed someone to look at my equipment and then punch a ball.  The squad I was bowling I had four guys behind me, Chad, Don, Charlie, and Hartsfield.... all telling me what to do, where to lay it down, where to stand, where to look, yada yada.  Heck, even Audric gave me his two cents!  Too many chiefs... especially when throwing a brand new ball!  I was just trying to get a read on the ball.

I bowled the buy one get one free squad, and left Sunday morning without bowling the free squad.  Haha!
