EU - How do your want yours drilled?
« on: December 21, 2005, 01:09:36 AM »
I plan on using this ball on heavy oil - shooting outside and also shoot it deep on medium like maybe 4th or 5th arrow. I looked at the drill specs and I like the Stacked drill but with the pin about 1" below the ring and 1" out to pap. Do you think this will work for what I want it to do? BTW my friends sez I'm a power stroker.

Remember this ball is light load particle and its still pearl,  Particle pearls aren't really "Heavy Oil" balls.  It does have a super low RG which will help it roll earlier but I still advise against considering it for true heavy oil, the pearl is probably goign to skate on you.

take a look at my uranium layout in my profile, i think thats the layout you're talking about.

i used the ball for the FIRST TIME last night during big money league playing on a christmas tree pattern.
here are my scores...
http://bowlingtracker.no-ip.org:2222/personalstats/ViewStats.asp?PS_LeagueID=6565

the layout is very versatile, i can get any reaction i want based on axis tilt.
skid/snap, hook set, hard arc. hard arc worked for me last night, and hook set still had massive hitting power.

i stayed behind the ball most of the night, the first game i was trying to feel it out, the money shot with this ball is starting out with your right foot on the center dot and shooting in between 2nd and 3rd arrow.

with the same layout on the Enriched Uranium, i'd say you're correct about playing straighter on heavier stuff and playing inside on medium.
it'll react close to the same, just uptick the oil type it's meant for by 1, from light/med to medium for the uranium to medium to med/heavy for the Enriched Uranium, never the heaviest stuff, as it is a pearl ball

this ball hits like a tank on medium with that inside shot, it was checking up early trying to play straighter (1st game).

i highly recommend this ball layout for people that are flexible players regarding revs/speed/axis tilt.

An SCB or a Solid Uranium for Oil would be good.  I plan to drill mine either 4x4 stack  or maybe a 5x4 pin above and cg out an inch.

Based on the drilling specs, stacked will give the most out of this ball and will especially benefit you.
