I'm still working with mine. Most reviews indicate it's for medium to medium-heavy. I made the mistake of putting the pin under the ring finger. This position used to be good for me. By the time this Soaker cover got that 20+ games on it and came alive, it has sort of a ferocious, flippy backend, even at 1000 grit US (2000 grit Abralon). It flips hard. I just hate to redrill it but I may eventually have to.

If it's flippy at 1000 grit, who knows what it would become polished or even 4000 grit Abralon.

I had some good luck with mine.  Drilled about 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 with the pin about an inch and a half above the finger line.  I used it OOB for about a year and a half before shining it up with Legends polish.  Pretty good medium ball now.  It was the first out of my bag for a long time.  I don't use it much now because it doesn't fit quite right anymore.

I did shoot 272 in doubles at the state tournament with it after coming off a 430 series in singles.

One of the best they ever made,...especially good skid'flip on the right pattern.
