a little help?
« on: April 12, 2007, 09:07:43 AM »
i'll try to put this the easiest way i can. had a chance to throw a buddies awsome finish. however, my buddy is a lefty. i was SUPER impressed with this ball drilled just the way it was, which was...to me, pin under middle finger (ring for lefty) and mb kicked LEFT of the thumb about 2 inches. pin to pap would be about 5 1/2 for me, and mb to pap would be about 7-ish inches?

My question is this...becuase i'd feel...weird about drilling a ball for myself left handed (and to make it easier to make the ball statically legal), if i leave the pin where it's at...under my middle finger, and move the mass bias to maybe 1 or 2 inches to the right of the thumb...how much different will the reaction be?

Thanks in advance.

You're talking about shifting the mass bias 5-6 inches - 2 inches left to the thumb, another 1-2 inches to cover the thumb, and another 1-2 inches to the right.

I would think that it would make a big difference in reaction.  How much, I really don't know.

I looked at MoRich's site and can't find any drillings that recommend you put the MB in your track area.

If you are happy with the reaction you saw, drill one up that way.  If you end up not liking it, you can also plug and redrill.
