Help with the Code
« on: March 22, 2008, 07:02:54 AM »
I just received my AMF Code from the ball raffle I won a couple weekends ago.  I am looking for a good lay out, but as slightly confused.

On the drill sheet it gives both symmetric and assymetric core drillings, and says the CG is marked by a punch on the ball, and that the triangle would be the "spin spot" which I have no idea what that means lol.

Can anyone help me out here?

From what i've read on the ball it has an asymmetrical core. So first and formost you'll want to go with the asymmetrical drilling instructions.
The Punch mark will be the CG and the triangle will the mass bias or prefered spin axis or spin spot which ever you want to call it.

there is no punch mark on the ball and no MB.  The triangle is the cg at least it was on my Code and the same with the ones that are at Anne Marie's pro shop.

This ball is symmetric.  The triangle is the cg on this ball.  Our drilling instructions are for multi use.  Please consult the symmetric drill side of the sheet when laying it out.
