The Pain is an amazing ball. Very versitile. I have mine drilled Pin to right of ring, cg in. Very smooth, controllable backend.

The Blue Vibe is one of my favorite balls.

Pin on grip center line above the fingers,C-G kicked right,long and strong.
I use it when I have to play inside.

Here's my Hammer lineup. Mine covers all but really light oil, since I don't have a Vibe yet.

Hawgzilla~ pin right of ring, and up slightly, cg stacked, weight hole, 4000 OOB

Toxic~ pin under ring, cg swung right at 45*, OOB

Black Widow~ pin right of ring and up slightly, cg stacked, weight hole, OOB

Pain~ pin over ring, cg stacked, no weight hole, highly polished.

Doom~ pin right of ring, cg stacked, 3 3/8" stacked leverage, OOB

I really like the looks I get with these. Hammer's really got some winners right now.

I would go to the pro shop and have them figure out your pap.  It's important to know your pap.

Since you have a good amount of revs on the ball it would be wise to keep the pin 4.5" or longer from your pap.  

A lot of bowlers drill each ball in there arsenal different.  Others use the theory of keeping the same pin location on every ball but changing the CG and or MB placement.  Then there's even the theory of using the same layout on each ball.

There's many ways for you to set up your arsenal.  I know of several bowlers that have had great success using each one of the theory's I mentioned.  

For the longest time I used the same layout on all my equipment.  I just let the cover and cores separate the reactions.  This theory works really well if your careful with your ball selection.  Currently i've got a few different layouts in my arsenal.  I tend to keep the PIN distance on just about every ball in my arsenal at 5"+ from my pap.

I agree with chi

go find out your PAP before getting anything drilled....You won't be sorry and then you'll know how to get every ball drilled from that point on..

might cost you 10-15 more for that first drilling, but to keep from having to get future balls re-drilled to suit your game, it's money well spent...

Here is my Hammer arsenal:

Black Widow - med / heavy
Toxic - med
Blue Vibe - light / med

There hasn't been enough oil for me to use my Black Widow yet.  The Toxic has worked awesome for me this season!  I just picked up the Vibe last week and it fits nicely underneath my Toxic.
