I received a Shock Trauma from a friend to plug up.  Normal pin dist and tw, but the pin/cg/mb were not in line at all.

He had it drilled with the pin/cg stacked, but the mb was left of the thumb (righty drill), something like this:

O  O p

.....cg

..O
mb

My ball driller said when the pin/cg/mb aren't lined up on an asymmetrical ball, you should ignore the cg marking and use the mb mark to layout your ball for the reaction you want.  I wanted a 10:30 drilling, so I ended up with something that looks like this (haven't tried it yet):

O  O
....P..cg
 
............xh  
..O.....mb
         
Just wondering what the expert opinions are on this.  Thanks.

Yup your driller is right, but the fact that the cg is not inline doesn't effect how you should drill the ball.  With asymetric balls you always drill by the pin and mb locations...the cg just becomes a weight hole indicator.  Sometime cg misalignments do cause sever weight holes or the inability to use a particular ball for a particular drilling.
