Dyno, I think they're right, on the marked MB balls (especially the Track ones which have at least a somewhat stronger MB) the CG is really irrelevant in the layout, now with the static weights and making it legal, then there may be an issue. Drillings with the MB in a strong position (i.e. close to the right side of the thumb) will put the CG in the negative side and like Ishmael said, would have a TON of negative side weight. This could result in the need for a balance hole somewhere on the negative side, which gets scary depending on where the guy tracks. It would be ideal, i think, if he's a low tracker because then wouldn't you be able to put a balance hole just to the left of the thumb? This would counteract the CG in negative and would still allow you to put the MB in a strong position.
--OR--
You could also put the MB out towards the VAL and bring the ball down to about 600 grit. In theory, doesn't the MB on VAL give you a more even reaction? It may not necessarily be STRONG, but it'd still hook if you tune the coverstock properly.
