how close can you drill to the cg look inside

Would this drilling be okay. are you able to drill that close to the cg and keep it statically legal.

I have seen a Gambreaker with CG in Ring, you might have to drill the fingers halfway through the ball but it is definately possible

You most likely will have to drill the fingers pretty deep and possible use a weight hole in the finger quadrant to get the ball legal, you should weight it first and get an idea of where you are before drilling it.

weight before drilling would put that at about an ounce and a half of top weight. So should have no problems keeping it legal correct

I've drilled an NVD like that for a customer and it also helped having a low top weight as well. If the top weight is below 3 oz. it shouldn't be a problem. Also, I agree with the previous posts! Hope this helps! God Bless!

Thats what I meant undrilled it would have about an ounce and a half of finger weight so it should be easy to keep legal correct just punch it up
