Two that I've used, with mixed success, are leverage and axis.  IME both layouts tended to cut down the amount of "squirt" in the back end, but also made the ball lay off more at the pins.

Hope this helps.

my driller always puts the pin below the bridge and the cg and little to the left, to give finger weight and some negative side weight. it goes straight, so i cant complain.

If it is to be used as a spare ball,I've had great results putting the cg so you have near max thumb and negative side weight.

I forgot about the thumb-negative drilling in a plastic or polished urethane ball.  It's great for over-walled conditions;  you just get your feet to the right, feed the ball into the dry, and the ball bumps up against the oil line and rolls right to the pocket.  Shot some great scores a few years ago with a Black Scout laid out that way.
