Drilled up this Ultra-Violet beauty tonight, a little different than I had first expected. I was going to go with a strongish drill, but I have balls already drilled for that,...so, after watching Steve Jaros throw a couple Energys at the PBA Dallas stop on Wed and Thur, I decided that with a ball that rolls and revs this hard I'd like to try for a ball that will let me play more direct, and up the boards, against the dry line. I drilled the ball 1 1/2" x 4 1/2. This put the pin on line between my pap and the ring finger, and the cg on the midline below the ring finger,..no x holes. The box surface comes a little dullish, so I hit it with a 800 grit polish lightly on the spinner. Out to the lanes I go,...and there's no lanes. There is a sea of high schoolers across the house 6 to 8 on a pair. The pretty lady at the counter says they'll be off in a few minutes, but I'll only have about a half an hour to practice,...whatever, and I get a pair..after about 5-6 practice shots I find out that the oil pattern is "no pattern",..after the kids being out there for about 2 hours, and just before the lanes get ran for league is what I'm on. Oh well, what the hell. I move right and decide to go up the lane with a little point shot around 9-10. The ball takes off smooth as silk, starts to rev up and never stops,..glides into a gentle arc right into the pocket and rips the rack...I stood at the foul line and just stared at where the pins used to be as the pinsetter re-set,..wow. Went to the other lane, did the same thing and again same result..man, how easy is this. I bowled 2 games, 268 and 259...on a terrible "pattern" I had about 3 boards to play going what I call "up and at 'em",...hit 9 and get the light hit or a shaker, 10 board was flush city,..and 11 was a trip 4 or the crusher ten in the pit,...I hated to quit,...I have a real good feeling about what I saw with the roll and hit with this ball. I have another that I'll go ahead a drill for a stronger look,..but I can't wait for league tomorrow night nor this weekend in Oklahoma City for a SASBA tournament....this ball just made the trip,..more later,..jime

It's never ever just one thing is always a combo. Cover, Core, lane surface and drilling. And in the case of the prince its variations in the release and oh I almost forgot accuracy!!!.
