Is there anyone who could give me some advice? I just got a new NM and BW neither one has been drilled yet. I don't know much about drilling because my first ball was a black cherry bomb that I got used at the local pro shop the ball had been a lefty's ball and I'm a righty but anyway the guy that drilled it asked me a few questions and drilled it. It worked fine for me I avg about a 190 and i was lookin to improve on that with my new balls so where do I begin? What ball should I use and When?

I'm not sure it was my first ball and He may have told me but I wasnt paying much attention I was too excited about gettin to use it.

Look at the ball and post where the pin is (should be a yellow dot on the ball somewhere around your fingers) and where the cg is (should be within 1-4 inches of the pin. It's not colored in but it looks like someone took a pen and pushed it into the ball)

I have 2 NO MERCY'S.  My first one has the #6 layout on it.  The pin is above the bridge(5.5" from my pap) with the HART 3/4" left of thumb.  This ball has a good mid lane read and a strong back end.

My second NO MERCY has the pin above the ring but a little right.  It's 4.5" from my pap and has the HART 3" left of thumb.  This ball has a little stronger mid-lane read than my first one.  It also has a bigger back end.

It seems to me that the further left one moves the HART the bigger the back end becomes.  I was able to move mine 3" left of thumb.  This put the CG 1/2 oz of negative side weight.
