hey just a quick q...if i want to put a flare-increasing weight hole in my scorchin inferno, i put it 2 1/4" past my axis point from the pin right? my question is this, how do i avoid flaring over the weight hole. i'm not positive that i will, just wondering, would it still increase the flare if i only went like an inch past my axis? thanks in advance.

when drill A flare-increasing weight hole  is there any rule of thumb on static weight( like does an donts), an what size bit an how deep is recomended?

a weightole on your positive axis point will cause the ball to roll up sooner

a weighthole between your positive axis point and your grip will remove top and side weights allowing the ball to react smoother and will flare less

a weighthole past your positive axis point will increase backend reaction and length caused by more flare

Just as you could pitch a thumbhole, so could the weighthole be pitched.

Pitching the weighthole away from the palm preserved more top weight in the ball thus enhancing the backend and the hit of the ball.

Pitching the hole towards the palm caused the ball to lose more topweight and thus making a smoother reaction.

Pitching towards the thumb will cause more length and a sharper backend reaction. Pitching towards the fingers will have an opposite effect.

The current way of thinking if you are strictly worried about getting the ball back within the legal ABC limits is to place the weighthole at the intersection of a line drawn from the grip center, through the CG to the vertical axis line. A hole placed here will stand a 95% chance of getting the ball back within the limits.
