Why is it that whenever I see drilling discussion on Lane #1 balls, 90% of them are "label," "stacked," or some other highly generic layout, and in every other ball company's forums, people actually specify what the drilling is (i.e. 5x4 with 2" pin buffer or 50x4x50)?
Because it's all the same. We choose to keep it simple. If you look at the other manufacturers drill sheets, they all have pin over/under the ring and CG/MB out for their "MAIN" layout. Hope this clarify's your question. =:^D

I used the pin axis layout.  THS league nights.  If the ball it outside of 10 at the breakpoint, it makes a nice move to and continuation through the pocket.

I wouldn't know -- I always end up throwing out the drill sheet whenever I buy a ball.  (I also do know that the drill sheet at least tells you the drawings aren't your basis point and if you have a different PAP than the average guy, your "pin over ring" drilling won't end up being pin over ring.  Whether or not the pro shop guy punching up the ball pays attention to this is another story!)

Got to throw the Chainsaw tonite the last game of league.  Left it with box finish pin right of ring finger.  Threw 8 strikes first game with it.  Another Lane #1 ball that will pay for itself in a few weeks no doubt.  This is + to my arsenal when the lanes are drying out.  It allowed me to play direct line to the pocket with a lot of confidence. Thanks to all whom replied.
