It is supposed to be a stronger ball than the Carbide +.

I have both (@ G-Forces) one G-Force drilled very similar to the Carbide +.
The G-Force is a much better ball for oil then the Carbide +. I didn't think the carbide + was a very good oil ball but a good medium oil ball. If you keep the G-Force is box condition, it is a great oil ball.
I drilled one G-Force stacked leverage 3 #/8 and the other G-Force with the pin about one inch above the ring finger and the MB just to the right of the thumb as Doug recommended. I think with a little polish on the G-Force with the pin over the ring finger and the other one close to box (box makes it too conditoin specific) that I will have a great one-two conbination.

I also have both.
I drilled the G-force label (pin slightly above finger line and right of ring, and MB about 3/4" left of thumb). I left it in OOB condition. It revs hard in the mids and is STRONG!
I first drilled my Carbide+ the same way. It was nowhere near as strong. I plugged the C+ and redrilled it CG axis. It is better, but still nowhere near as strong (in oil) as the G-force. The Carbide+ is better suited for medium with carry down (for me). On a heavy shot, the C+ will skate a bit, but the G-force is sweet.

I've got both as well and on my normal heavy oil wednesday night league the G-Force is about 8-10 boards stronger then my C+. Both balls are drilled RICO, and I was trying the same line to see the difference...

Thanks for all the replies...have just reserved a G-force..am thinking of drilling it the same as the Carbide plus...pin below ring and cg out with a balance hole. Will I be getting a similar ball reaction with this layout as compare to the Carbide plus ?
