WOW lots of hook in that line up, it is hard to say I don't know how you have the rest of the stuff drilled that would make a real difference. But looking at the rest of the stuff you have I would say drill it pin low maybe underneath your ring finger with the mass bias out about 3-4 inches get it rolling nice and early to handle the heavy juice.

there was a post a while back stating rico drills on Mo's cores aren't advised.

I'll try to find a link...

Why drill a particle rico? Nvm, a basic levarege layout will also do. But you could put the pin over the finger line to get the ball to start its hook a little later

Just another reminder that you can't take a strong asymmetric ball and throw a "standard" drilling on it and get the best results.  Look a the suggestions on Morich's site or find a driller very familiar with Mo's equipment.

I personally love the smoothness of the WMB.  For me, it's the ultimate control ball for med/heavy to heavy oil.

ryan, I also had read the previous post about not drilling a WMB with a rico drilling. I did a rico drill on a WMB anyway, using a weight hole at 1 1/8 back from the MB, as per Ric Hamlin's advice. I drilled this ball up for a young lefty with a low track. The ball arcs very nice with no over/under at all. The bowler used it and won a local youth tournament last weekend with it. The WMB with this drilling appeared to be very forgiving when he missed inside (it would hold well) and did not overreact on the outside up and in shot. VERY NICE!

That sounds a typical reaction for a WMB, at least mine anway. I wonder how much of that reaction was "the rico?"

slap, in regards to the WMB I honestly don't know, but I do know the effect of ball layouts and expected reactions. I do want to try this on a symmetrical ball with the same bowler. I'm thinking of plugging up a sym ball and trying it again to compare reactions.

slap, I see by your photos that you also have a Toxic and a Vibe. Would you care to comment on how you like the reactions of these balls with the layouts that you have? I've got both NIB and will drill up soon.....
