4x4x2
« on: September 10, 2014, 12:33:22 PM »
with this layout on a ball with less than 3 oz top weight, does it always require a weight hole? Can this layout still be within the once limit, thus no weight hole req?

Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

I put that on most of my assymetric prices.  I adjust the cg by moving it left to avoid a extra hole. 

Pincgmb layouts where the cg is shifted to the left an inch will also make this layout 'typically' easier to drill without an extra hole.

Many of the storm balls that I request will have the cg shifted left, especially if you ask for a 4-5" pin.

Depends on your pap. If you a low track player, maybe. High track, you'll probably need a hole, especially with 3 oz of top. On sym ball, you'll have to use a determinator to get the true PSA of the ball. Then you can remeasure the layout. Other than that the only thing you could do is go off the predrilled measurements.

my axis is 5 1/8 @ 3/4 up. It most likely needs one...plus, it flares over thumb hole. I just don't want to have a flare reducing hole and make the ball even have a sharper backend reaction with the OOB it has now.
