Title: How is my Action drilled?
Post by: inslyx on December 09, 2006, 05:55:45 PM

Please take a look at this pic.  I wanted this ball to roll earlier and flare a lot, as it's going to be my heavy oil ball.  Here's how it's drilled, let me know if it should have a weight hole, as I think it'll probably help me get closer to my desired reaction.  I got this ball at a great price, so it was worth experimenting with Columbia 300, as I normally use Hammer.

You need to give us more information buddy, what is the measurment to your pap? Including cg???  Without some of that info nobody out here can give you a good answer.

So your cg is probably kicked out to the right at about 5 o'clock? That is also kinda weird that the serial number is next to the thumb unless you have an unusual drilling on it.

Why is that unusual?  I believe Columbia puts the serial number below the CG marking.  I had a Chaos drilled like that, rolled early, flare was probably in the medium range though.

So, what's the consensus?  Do I need to get more information?  The Pin is 1-2", tops.  Maybe even closer to 0-1"

Looks like it is just a standard early roll lable drilling. I would have gone a little closer to your pap for a early drill but this to me looks to be your run of the mill lable drill for early roll.

Thanks, C-G.  Do you believe a X-hole will help me achieve more of the reaction I'm wanting?  Because right now, I'm just not satisfied with the aggressiveness of the ball.
