Expert drillers, i've got a question?
« on: October 20, 2008, 06:34:08 AM »
What kind of ball reaction could i expect if i took a ball with normal specs and drilled it A*(pin under MIDDLE finger and cg out) instead of (pin under RING finger cg out)? I'm a Tweener with High track @ 17mph and decent revs.
or B* (Take a RICO drilling and move it UP and UNDER MIDDLE finger)?

I guess i should ask if it's legal? So, what am i after? I love the RICO reaction, but not the way the cg feels like it's more on the side of my hand and not in the palm like on a label drilling.... Just trying to balance the weight of the ball in my hand and create less hook but weight balance is #1... THanks!

Depends on what your version of a LOT of weed is?

No...changing the statics would not change the reaction (noticeably) at all.  The difference between pin under middle and pin under ring is also not very big, but the pin under middle would be slightly weaker.

Pin under the middle is farther from your PAP, which should give a little more length in theory.  You would probably get a bigger difference in reaction by changing the surface of the ball.  Might not be a weaker drill, depending on location of PAP, but in this case yes, longer.
