My 15 was delivered today, although my requested pin distance either wasn't available, or was ignored.

Anyone get one and drill it? I ended up getting one. Asked for a longer pin, but got 2-3. Kinda close to 3" though so it might work. But was looking to see if anyone has drilled it and can provide perspective on what it may be akin to.

I think everyone is waiting before they drill theres, or waiting for them to sell out to re sell them.

They are sold out.  I've only seen a couple pop up for sale so I assume some people are drilling. Would look great on the lane, but I'd really like to have an idea how it rolls.  I don't like drilling balls just because. Only if the fit an obvious current hole.

Drilled mine last Thursday and threw on Sat on supposedly fresh shot. I had the cover taken down to 2000 to open the pores up. Pin above ring and mb next to thumb. Ball is a beast and my first gas mask cored ball. Carry is phenomenal compared to my Paradoxs. I have Greater Tulsa Open this weekend so it should be a good test on what the ball is capable of, heard they were pretty oily.

I had one of the Gold Widows with the black labels. Box finish was polished and just did not roll good for me. Adjusted the surface to 2000 and eventually 500/2000 to get a very nice more forgiving reaction.

Trying to fit them in arsenal gaps maybe a little difficult but its the widow core with different mixes of good covers. It's hard to go wrong. 

And yes it does look really good on the lanes.
