Dependent on PAP, I'm guessing an early rolling, arc back-end type of reaction. Just a guess though.

Do you guys know how much it would possibly be to get it plugged and redrilled?

It all depends on the driller. At my old place it was 20 too plug and redrill, plus the price of inserts.

Without knowing the PAP of the bowler, you can't tell what the ball is upposed to do´. Furthermore. the CG marking (a small punch) cannot be seen clearly on the pic. For a gigh tracker I'd also say it is an eraly rolling, very smooth arcing drilling. Good control for oily lanes. For a low tracker this one could be stronger, more back end. But that's just an educated quess. The ball itself is rather rolly for oily lanes by design, so I'd suspect that it belongs/belonged to a high tracker.

Looks like the good old pin st 1:30 little bit of side weight.  This is a generic drilling used when the PAP is unknown.  I disagree with the rest about the early rolling bit.  The cg is in the center of the grip, not providing thumb weight for early roll.  The mass bias (6-3/4" on a straight line from pin through cg for symmetrical) is on the left side of the thumb hole, possibly in the track, providing an arcing motion.  For early roll, the mass bias would be right of the thumb.  If the ball does happen to roll early, it is because of the cover, not the drill on this one.

Where do you see the CG marking? That white spot in the grip center? Or rather the white speck at 6:00 from the pin, for a stacked position...?

Its right next to the light bulb reflection(the cg).  The Brunswick "B" is at 12:00, the label left of the span.  This is a simple label drill.

Yes, looks like this, but I am not sure. Nevertheless, this emms to be a pin-in ball anyway, ang therefore roll smoothly.
