I drilled 2  Saw Blades up today

Axis Point 5 1/8 x 1/8

Ball 1 Axis Leverage.  Pin Adjacent to the Ring finger  cg=enter of gravity on PAP  Balance hole on Midline 6 3/4" from center of grip.  Used ball on  a house shot.  Outside of 5 was dry with a ton of oil 5-5. I was able to play up the boards and bounce the ball off the dirt and get it back to the pocket.   I was also able to play 3rd arrow and keep the ball in the oil and get a great reaction.   I left a few stone 10 pins;  but what ball doesn't? This ball produced a smooth even arc  

The Second ball was laid out with the pin above the bridge with the CG kicked out to the right about 1 9/16" right of the center of grip and 3/4 " down in the thumb positive Quadrant again i put the weight hole 6 3/4 in away from the center of grip on the mid line.  I only got to throw about 6 shots on the same house shot and liked the reaction.  This ball went a little further than the first ball with a pronounced flip.

I like the reaction of both balls, and they both hit hard.

A definite winner for the gang from Hopkinsville.

This ball is awesone.

Specs:  15lb 2-3 pin and 2.5 oz top weight

drilling:  Pin just under ring, cg is 3in away and kicked toward positive side by an inch with balance hole on vall in thumb quadrant to get excess thumb weight out.

Used this on a couple of conditions so far.
condition 1:  Wood lanes with wet dry conditon with heavy concentration in middle.  The ball got thru heads clean got to midlane and started turning hard which is what i experience with most of balls in blade series. This balll clears head fairly well ahas strong midlane move and contiuous move to pocket and excellent hitting power.  I pulll this ball out when need a little more midlane move than my big blue. has much stronger move than big blue more of a snap than a hard arc.

condition2:  40 flat synthetics.  Played 25 to 5 on this condtion with clean backends.  This ball got thru heads with ease started its move in midland and didnt stop till it hit pocket.  With explosive opwer that is!

Very strong ball this is if you need a hard midlane move this is the ball for you definately need head oil or this ball will take off!  Carry down not a problem for this ball.  It is denately the strongest in the blade series suggest for me heay to med condition not for dry or flood.  Great ball give a solid 9 of ten.
--------------------
I have a few hammers and know how to nail the pocket with them!

I use this 15 lb. ball on wood/medium oil.  I am left handed and the fingers are roughly 1/2" above and to the right of the pin.  The ball was drilled for maximum hook.  I stand 25 and roll the track.  I use forward roll and this ball out of the box revs in the mid lane makes its move and snaps just a touch on the finish.  Carrys weak pocket hits very well, perfect hits are bone crushers, and high pocket hits usually carry 8 or split because of the late snap and hard drive.

I keep the same line for carry down but just move up a foot and slow down my speed.  The ball keeps working until the oil burns off than I just move back.  I am shooting 650's.  18-23 strikes are common and my 7 pin game is weak.  I have only been bowling for 3 years but have just hit the 200 mark.  This ball has really been a good find.  I have not tried it on heavy oil as I have another ball for synthetic lanes where the shot is softer.  
Hammer did a good job with this one.  5 stars *****Winner
