Drilling out the MB was not intentional. I have just been trying to be more precise with my layouts, and actually layed the ball out before drilling, ala Brunsnick's video. Usually I just start punching holes, cuz I know what I like and such. I wanted 70 degrees, and that is where the MB fell, and also get the pin over the fingers.
Since the MB is almost always 6 3/4 from the pin with Ebo balls, you could/I could have just waited and drilled a different ball with pin farther out, so the MB would have fallen over my thumb. So, I didn't really do it on purpose. The pin was about 2" from the CG, so I had to drill the fingers a little deep, a farther pin out might have let me tweak the layout with pin a little higher and still be 5" from my PAP.
The ball is kind of rolly for a pearl ball, but hits great. As I said, I am experimenting with 16lb balls, and this is one of them. Shot 240, 230, 230 with this ball in my league for like 714, missed one spare, had a couple splits. For the second week of the experiment, 6 games now, I have not left any pocket single pins except 10 pins. No 7s, 8s, 9s or 4s. Great carry! First week was with a 16 Infinite One.
