Did it start with a low top weight or something (ring finger drilled deep)?  With the CG being off of your midline as far as it is...I would've thought a weight hole would've been added to the ball.  Or is there one and we just can't see it?

I'd be careful with EXACTLY one oz. of side weight.  It my be 1 oz. at your pro shop, and 1.1 oz at another.  Why risk it?  It's not going to affect your ball reaction.  Just my 2 cents.

granted cg no matta in an assy. core but unless I'm not seeing something the cg being that far from grip center I'd almost lay a wager there is more than 1oz side weight, just by drawing lines and using a straight edge the cg is more than 2" rt of center, more than 1 oz imo, according to my measurments using a set of calipers the cg is 2 1/4" rt of center line, more than 1oz side, I'd ask the shop when they last calibrated their scales or ask them to rescale the ball, we all make mistakes.I'd guestimate the side to be more like 2 oz +
