The Zone series is sort of funny, in a sense that I personally find some asymetericals are hook set naturally. But the zone series is asymeterical but more continous for most players, because the cores are not extreme in design and intermediate diff is not as high.
But you are still able to retain the properties of asymeterical layouts. I see alot of times players wanting to place pins farther way from the pap to get more length and less reaction. With Symetericals this does apply in general, but you often push pins farther turning it into more backend and more over under. I like using the zone series because you can take vapour zones, and place pins at 4 1/2 inches to 5 inches from pap and make a backend monster, but then for someone else that wants something smoother and controling over reactive backends i use a 2 1/2 pin to pap layout with the MB below the thumb and they have stable smooth roll.
For asymeterical balls look for lower pins with closer pin to pap layouts for more stable roll, for more jump/sharper reactions to dry place pins higher and farther away.
