How to drill-5 inch pin
« on: March 22, 2005, 08:53:26 AM »
Storm Hot Rod

I want the strongest drillling possible. I have a medium, low track. I normally have the pin in line with the PAP or slightly under the fingers. If I drill the ball max leverage, the pin will be above the fingers if I keep the CG near the grip center.

Can anyone recommend a drill that will allow for maximum flare while keeping the CG near the centerline of the grip? I was hoping to avoid a X hole. PAP details in profile.

why do you want to avoid the x hole

this would give more options and more flare potential

I am avoiding a X hole because no one in the house knows how to properly use the Kauffman scale.

I will probably just do it myself. If I put the pin next to the ring finger, the CG will be near the thumb.

ttfs -- If you have access to a Kauffman scale, the Jayhawk site has very good instructions on how to use it:  --  JohnP
