when i was in indianapolis for the jr. gold national championships the reps from columbia said that the ball works best with leverage drills.  i believe the one guy actually drilled it with the pin above the ring finger about half an inch and said the ball reacted funny.  then he found out that he had to lay it out differently then he said the ball reacted really nice.  might just be the guy trying to market his product which is his job.  lol.

I saw a few of these last month down at Kegel. Some of these guys were using 4" pins on their EXP1's and some polish This thing is pretty strong, but I also have to say its pretty legit too. It doesn't really quit in the back despite it driving in early.

I will probably end up getting one or two of these soon to try it for myself.

Yeah, the drill sheet that comes with the ball basically offers like 8 different layouts for different RevRate to Ball Speed matchups.  All the drill patterns range between 3 3/8 and 4 1/2 inches from the PAP.

Ball is a good oil ball with fresh backends.But it does not like carrydown and is not the hook monster it has been advertised to be.It is very controllable and does not roll out.Good for long oil with hooking backends.I have thrown it for over 40 games on different conditions.Drilled exactly like Del warren said strong with the balance hole thumb quadrant.My angle evolution tour handles the oil better and the gp2 out hooks it. Good ball but dont believe the hype
