Title: Total NV Drill Pattern #5 Question
Post by: kodak on February 22, 2007, 03:18:29 AM

I am drilling a Total NV this weekend. Typically, I use plastic and urethane at home due to a high rev rate and not alot of conditioner. The NV will be a tournament ball where more conditioner is typical.

I was thinking of drilling the ball with Drilling No. 5, the one Ebonite discourages due to a mild ball reaction.  I am looking for a mild reaction, but my concern is whether a ball with low flaring potential will hit the same as one with a maximum flare potential.

Has anyone drilled one this way?  If so, what were the results.

Thanks

Kodak

I drilled an sr300 like that, very controllable arc, needs hooking back ends to carry, unless you have massive revs. Joe

Sounds like you might like that Tommy Jones layout on the drill sheet. My son has one like that. Goes long with good recovery. Joe

Definitely sounds like the Tommy Jones "trick drilling" would work well for you.
