World Class Pearl Particle
« on: February 09, 2008, 03:39:51 AM »
Just curious as to how you have it drilled. Just ordered one yesterday, just looking for suggestions. I throw alot of different equip. - not brand loyal. I have a LM's Big Bang which I do like alot, but have been throwing a Black widow pearl as of late. My favorite drill is a 4" inch pin and then placing the MB at 45 degree angle with it on my VAL (on asymmetrics), gives me alittle length with good midlane read. Think this will be good on the WCPP maybe at 2000 abralon?

Thanks for your time.

The drilling is not unusual. It's a good start, based on your delivery and the oil/lane surafce.

However, given that the WCPP is a particle and given that it's a Lanemasters, I would hesitate to sand it to 2000 grit unless you had a highish balls speed.

I suggest you test that drilling first with a stock surface; then if it is too long or too flippy, use a green or grey nylon pad BY HAND to scuff/haze the surface a little at a time, until you get the ball reaction and ball path you desire. If you really need to go to a full 2000 grit sanding, all well and good. But if you skip the intermediate steps and you needed to use it at one of them, you'll be kicking yourself.

I have a WCPP drilled 4 1/4" x 45* pin beside ring finger and get a great reaction when I have enough oil to get it down the lane(it definitely needs oil). I tried it at 2000 grit sanded but it matches up best at 1000 sanded
for my game. When I can get lined up with it I love it, but when it starts
drying out and you can't keep it from burning up(you will start leaving corner pins) ---- put it away.
