Hi,

I have been drilling my own equipment for a couple of years now, and have a reasonable understanding of pin placements, etc...  

One thing that has always confused me though, are the Lane #1 Drillings.  Not all of them mind you, but in general.

If you look at the drillings sheet for the Uranium, they say that maximum length can be obtained by putting the pin on the PAP ... shown as the Pin axis Drilling.  This seems to be the total opposite of everything that I understand about drilling.  Putting the pin on the PAP would cause most balls to go into a roll immediately and would amount to a length of 0 (on a scale of 1-10).

Even the graph on the drilling recommendations sheet is opposite.  It shows length increasing as the distance from Pin to Axis decreases ... unless I am reading it wrong.

Is this a function of the diamond core?  Am I reading the drillings incorrectly?

I am starting to wonder because I drilled a Hybrid Dirty Bomb with a label leverage drilling, and it seems to want to try and hook, but really moves straighter on a heavy oil shot then almost everything in my bag.  It revs up nice, but won't turn over in the back end.  It isn't burning up either.  The house where I have thrown it puts about 70 units (so they say), from 10 to 10.  I would think that that would be enough to cause this ball to skid through the heads without burning up.  The only ball I have thrown that would burn up on that shot was a V2 Power with the OOB finish.  And even that just started early, not right off my hand.

Any help?
