(a) Standard: 4 to 4.5 in, pin from pap.
(b) Length: 5 to 6 in. pin from pap but with a weight/ balance hole to "increase" the flare.
As a high tracker with only medium speed, I am more concerned about my ball 'burning up"/losing carry at the backend.

How does that compare to standard drilling?( out of box is 1500 polished).
Which has more "total" hook on light oil?

Anytime you take a ball down in grit, it is going to give more OVERALL hook. The problem with a lot of bowlers, they will see a ball that does all it's movement on the backend and think it is hooking more, but the dull lower grit ball just starts it's move earlier. However if you take a ball down to 800 say for a light oil pattrn..it could definately burn up and by the time it gets to the back end roll out and hit like a 'malllow
