Is it possible/difficult to duplicate ball drilling fits?  Reason I ask is, a few years ago I got a ball which was drilled perfectly.  It's my best releasing ball and it fits my thumb great.  The guy who drilled it wrote down all my specs, but I've gotten 2 other balls from him and neither fits quite like that one did.  The most common issue turned out to be a bevel problem, ball would hang up on my thumb until some of the bevel was taken out.

I even tried going to another pro shop and getting completely remeasured, but that wasn't good.  Ball felt like it fit ok, until it shredded the right side of my thumb...

So is it possible to replicate drillings, or should I kinda expect every ball to feel a bit different for all intents and purposes?

Take it to a pro shop that has vise exacticate or any other type of thumbhole replication. If you use grips, the finger holes are very easy to replicate but the thumbhole can be a bit more of a challenge unless you use some sort of thumb mold. Here is a small description of the exacticate.

Thumbs can be duplicated easily by molding the thumb hole.
We do this almost daily at our shop.
