Title: throttle Xcelerator...... how to drill
Post by: bighook69 on May 14, 2005, 11:06:23 AM

I got the Xcelerator and might i say IT IS BEUAUTIFUL!!!

I need a drilling for a med/dry reaction, how do you guys think i should drill it up? I was thinking about drilling it up with pin above the ring finger and cg in palm...

OH YAH, ball specs are, 3 inch pin, 2 ounce of top

The reactive coverstock on my Throttle/r is called Accelerator???

Is that it?

Very reactive.  Ready to jump at the first sniff of dry!

REgards,

The covers on all the Throttles, with the exception of the Throttle/UP are all Accelerator.

I have never heard of the Throttle Xcelerator, I think Columbia is done with the Throttle series.

I'd guess it was the overseas equivalent of the Full Throttle. The specs say Reactive and the finish is 1200 grit concentric, although the picture is polished. The fact thatit is reactive and has that 1200 finish says Full Trottle to me.

Yep it looks like a polished Full Throttle.  That is not a ball for medium dry but medium up to medium oily me thinks.

My throttle R in pearl can barely take medium light.

Big REACTION!
