So our house extreme lefty wet dry. Ball an old T Road Pearl! (old version of today's Hyroad Pearl).
I had traveled to the Villages in Florida last year and had seen Parker Bohn set record scores with the classic version of this drilling on a Melee Jab. Pin in grip center and the CG kicked 45 degrees left and the classic weighthole for this well known drilling.
I also saw him throw occasionally a test ball standard pin up Mastermind Intellect. This was very over under on this shot for him.
Come the finals where he and the other lefty (winner Mike Scroggins) burned a track in warp up and practice he had not much with the classic pin in grip center. Frankly the ball just didn't work in the finals.
As my tilt has increased and my PAP has raised it just made sense for me to raise my PIN up about as much as my PAP too me.
Pin up about 3/4 of an inch above my grip center and then a 55 degree angle. Not bad.
On the tricky fresh this rounded off the break and gave me a quick 6 bagger on this brutal lefty extreme wet/dry house shot. Particularly if I kept my axis rotation under 40(not easy for me). Length of use barely over 1 game. But during that game....Golden on this harsh! I however can't even imagine these drillings lasting past warm up blend out for righties.
Funny this is similar to a drilling that I loved on my gorgeous rolling Crimson Red Sledgehammer Money ball. Previously 3 3/8 control(MB on VAL). However as my Pap is morphing closer and up that ball is now a Flare monster with the pin at 3 inches Pin to PAP (way to much flare on this high friction house) It also always had this rounded off break point that strikes well for me! Would love to get another of that Jewel let me tell you!

PS as a side note of this trial, I think I may be quite interested in this HyRoad Pearl (today's TRoad Pearl)while applying a more standard drilling on this house shot for the later games opened up shot.
