Drill Sheets Not On The Website???
« on: September 16, 2003, 10:56:48 PM »
Where are the drill sheets for the XXL, XXXL, and Cranberry?  I ordered an XXL and would like to view the drill sheet before I get the ball drilled.  Why hasn't Lane#1 posted the sheets for these 3 balls?

Thanks

the XXL and the XXXL have the same core as the XL. drill sheets should be the same.

the Cranberry is  Silver diamond core with the nugget offset. they should be the same.

I would think that all normal symmetrically drillings would be OK. stay away from exotic drillings if you feel uncomfortable without a drill sheet.

just match the shell to surface then the drilling.

Thanks Omega that's what I thought.  However, why would Lane#1 have an individual drill sheet for the Cherry Bomb, Black Cherry Bomb, and the Super Carbide Bomb?  All 3 of those balls have the exact same core just like the XL, XXL, and XXXL...

Yeah I noticed that also.

It seams they are generalizing certain patterns over others based on ball coverstock.

notice that the BCB or SCB has a neg cg placement and the cherry bomb doesn't.

they figure that a pearl is skid-snap and not used in a control satiation where a strong cover like the BCB is ok to do it.

I like control and I would feel comfortable placing  a 105 deg on a pearl to manage dry lanes.

Cover/Core/Pin/CG or Mb. go with what you like for symmetricals.

according to MO there are only 4 basic drills for symmetricals. Denny T uses degree and pin to pap layouts. who's right? who's wrong?

I have been enlightened on where my Sweet spot for pin placement is. so now all my balls are going to be drilled like that and just swing the cg/mb around to where I like it and then adjust the cover.
