Drillng for the TNV PLEASE.
« on: February 10, 2007, 01:19:26 PM »
I am looking for a drilling for the TNV. I sent a message to someone but apparrently I cannot give enough information. I would like to get a strong arch reaction. Here is my specs:

16 1/2 to 17 1/2 speed
around 300 revs
my Pap is 4 5/8 over and 3/4 up.

I am hopeful that someone can help with a drill pattern. If you have to be a freakin rocket scientest to drill the ball...............I will just sell the stupid thing.

Go 4X4 Pin above ring - CG Stacked and MB in strong position. This is how me and three of my other buddies have drilled ours. The ball is very strong and can come back from anything.

Where are you trying to fit this into your arsenal?

below the total, not overly angular, i would go with drilling 1, see how u like it, & add a flare reducing or increasing weight hole depending on what u want(more or less hook)

Not to be rude in any way, but if u dont want anything angular, why did u buy 1 of the most angular balls out right now?

Again, not trying to be a pr!ck, its an honest question.

Shawn,

No offense taken. The information that I was given to begin with was that is was not that angular and could be drilled for an arc. I am getting the feeling that this my not be the case. Thanks for the response.

i wouldnt really say it could be DRILLED to arc.  U could definately give it a good arc drilling, then take the polish off.  Maybe even 4000abralon might help enough, if not, just go to 2000.  

IMO any ball CAN arc, its just a matter of what surface + drilling u need to get it to do it.

Just my opinion, but if u dont like anything angular, i would stick to brunswick, lanemasters also has a ton of smooth rolling equipment to choose from.  Ebonite tends to have lots of angular equipment.

Pin right of ring, cg stacked, weight hole on midline. That's where mine was, and it was an arcing motion. Good luck T!

Tracy,

You may want to look at drilling #3 on the layout sheet that comes with the ball.  This provides an earlier reaction with strong down lane motion.  I've not tried one drilled like this, but have seen others with it.  It seems to accomplish what you're looking for.  Thanks!
