1. What drill pattern should I use, I was leaning towards 4L.
2. What pin position and top weight should I request, I thought 3"-5 1/2" pin and 1-2 oz top weight if I use 4L.
Just looking for a ball I can keep to the right of the head pin when it really dries out in the late league I bowl in. I thought my new blazing inferno (hard) would be it, but it reacts exactly like my vicious attack but with a stronger back end. So i will probably retire the vicious and use the blazing for now.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have mine drilled pin over ring finger, CG aligned below (about 1" from center of grip) and polished. I use it for broken down lanes but it's not meant for stripped or Sahara Desert conditions...

But 4L is safe if you have a good amount of "hand" or if the oil is really short and light. The Slay/R is good for light to medium-light oil, but since it is resin, you still MUST have aminimum amount of head oil.
Being such a mild ball, 2L or 3L is probably also OK.
I have used one; having a lower track I used 2E, and it was fine for light to medium-light oil.

Thanks for the suggestions. So the Slayr will be a good choice for when the lanes breakdown and the blazing moves too much?
Uhhhh maybe, maybe not? If you already have a blazing, consider a power groove dry/r or even a urethane groove. I think they would be a better fit for what you are looking for.

TOOOOOOOOOOOOO far left...
Thats the problem. After moving so far left, I lose a good entry angle and can't carry. I need something to enable me to move back right and get it down the lane. But I want something with decent backend movement, thats why I thought the Slayr would be a good choice.
agroves - thanks, I'll take a look at the power groove dry/r and the urethane groove.
