Title: Enriched Uranium????
Post by: Fatboy8 on December 14, 2006, 10:49:20 AM
I just picked one of these up on a trade, and it's got a full roller drilling on it.

Just wondering what this ball will be like with this drilling?

What drillings have you had success with on an Enriched U?

if you're not a full roller, i would suggest getting it redrilled.

i love the drilling on mine, check it out in my profile.

once owned by PBA Tour Pro Michael Haugen Jr., we have the same span.

Man I hate pin under drillings though. I thought about either drilling it pin right of ring, cg stacked, or go with a Rico on it.

It's kind of a "test" ball, since it's been plugged about 5 or 6X's already.

stop being a baby, open up the lane a bit.

crack out of that strokers mentality, this is the ball that can get you there.

Pin Under, and give it some room, you'll be fine.

if you're going to label drill it like everything else, then why bother.

the pearl will give you enough push downlane, experimental ball right?

everything you have is pin up or beside the finger.

you're going out on a REAL limb here...

its a 5x drill, soon to be 6, try it, if you hate it you can blame me.

LOL Mega. You're right, I've got NOTHING to lose by drilling it that way. I may just do that, and see what I get. What surface is yours at? That's my next question is to find the surface that matches this ball nicely.

Thanks!

BTW, i "WAS" a stroker when i first started using that ball.

i used to squeeze, ever since ive stopped ive added revs effortlessly.

thanks to Brunsnick and Vise TA foam tape to train my hand.

i was able to open up the lane on med-light and play straighter and truck through carry down like it is its job on med-heavy, yes, med-heavy.

since the new found revs i havent used it, sorry, been hooked on my absolute inferno.

Fatty,

I had my original one drilled the same way as this one, and I LOVED it: http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3199716 .  This ball was a beast for me.  I don't think you can go wrong with pin under bridge or ring.  Let us know how it works for you.
