CG Placement (Hammer Drill Sheet)
« on: September 06, 2006, 12:57:49 AM »
I was looking at the drill sheet that came with my Raw Doom last night, and saw that Hammer believes that CG doesn't matter either. Would it matter with a HIGH mass bias ball?

"CG Placement:

Tests have shown that with symmetric and LOW mass bias asymmetric covers, if you have two balls layed out identical but put the CG in two different locations, you do not see a difference in ball motion. If you have a balance hole in a ball, with the CG in a different location, the reason you will have a different ball motion is because you have drilled into the core and altered the shape of the core."

Here's the collective thoughts on this subject by various experts:

YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter. YES it matters. NO it doesn't matter...and so on and so on. The honest answer is maybe it does = maybe it doesn't. I think Hammer avoids the entire controversy by simply saying it only matters in how the core is altered to achieve legal static weight.

Given this insight, IMO all drill sheets should be shredded and every thing drilled label.

I agree with you 100%!

IMO, IF, you think it matters, it does....IF you don't think it matters, it doesn't.

I know how I drill mine, I ask how others want thiers, so if they think it matters, it does to them...

wow..I should run for a political office !!
