Stacked how?  Would it be a 5 x 5 for you?  Would it be a 4 x 4?  Full leverage?  Stacked really doesnt tell the whole story.  Plus, what worked for him may not work for you.  Have to map it out on your PAP coordinates to get true layout.

I Think going to do a 5x5
appreciate it and I understand all info needed but just trying to get a rough idea of course

hoping to possibly pick it up tonight, with it all drilled but we will see,

if you have suggestions for it all input would be great



current arsenal
Sharp Noise pin up
Nomad Pearl pin down
Smash Zone pin up
Morich LevRg pin up (shined up)
Morich LevRg pin down (dull)
Twisted Fury Pearl Rico drill


Trying to replace out the LevRg's as it's time of course..

I dont have alot of hand, as some ppl say they can tell by my pap,
looking for something when slicker, and even as start breaking down can move some in, instead of normal down in and in shot..

Thanks again

I would stack it stronger than 5x5.  It is a higher rg core, and for guys with lower revs is going to need some dry to really react nicely.  You aren't going to be able to move in on the dry with it unless you have some hand, or a stronger drill.

ok then what kinda drilling would you go with, that way when i move it, it's not a weak 10, or a 8-10 from me not being able to really drive it thru?


once again thanks

ok well if need to move in, I guess i have the other 2 balls, so what would your suggestions be for the drilling on it?

for oil good reaction that still carries

one of things that keep me down more then I feel should be is carry.  
even if it's the first game only of league or game and half

I'd try a 4x4 setup, and see how the ball reacts. As mentioned bfore, with its higher RG and lower differential, you have to put the pin in a stronger position than usual. 5x5 would be pretty weak.
As a next step, you might add some surface, if the ball tends to slip beyond its break point.

so a 4x4 huh, I have been reading alot of people liked theres at either 2k sanded or 2k abralon, so that kinda gives me another idea to start with on it

Thanks again for all your help on this

Bass,

Brunswick has warned us, when drilling this core (used in the Twisted Fury linealso), to drill it at least 1/2" stronger (pin to PAP) that you would normally, due to, as several people have already mentioned, the medium-low (.036") Rg Differential of this ball's core. That advice has worked 3x for me, having drilled a 16 lb TFP, a 16 lb TF Solid and, just the other day, a 15 lb Twisted Fury Pearl.

ALso becareful about the MB position, as the mass bias/PSA strength is in the .023" range, which means it has a very significant effect on the breakpoint shappe of the ball's reaction.

Good luck.
