I have two of these... actually only one, one was stolen a couple weeks ago.  Mine is a label drill, pin at 1:30, CG at 3.  Both about an inch away from the fingers.  Very predictable ball.  The coverstock does exactly what I hoped, tame from beginning to end.  Lots of length.  Soft in the back, but that's what I wanted.  

I use this ball when everything else hooks too much.  It will always clear the heads.  It's just a matter if I can get enough angle on the backends to take out the corners.  I don't go to a tournament without it.  It's a nice "safety" ball... has bailed me out when I found myself in trouble from erratic conditions.

For the price, it'll be difficult to find a better ball.  Ihave not throw one with a wild layout yet, although that does give me some ideas.  Hmmmm....
