Which increases length down lane.....CG (diamond label) closer to fingers down closer to thumb? I believe it's up toward fingers but just wanted to confirm. Thanks in advance.

It goes by the pin placment. The closer the pin is to the PAP the earlier it rolls, the farther the pin is from the pap the longer the ball goes before getting into a roll. Placing the pin above the fingers will make the ball skid farther than placing it below the fingers.

Nappy, with the diamond core according to the drill charts, a 1 oclock label drill with the pin above & to the right of the ring finger will give you great length with strong backend move. Here is a link for you if you haven't seen the drill sheets.

O.K. Thanks for the responses, one last thing. Sawuser, the layout you mentioned is just what I have in mind for the E.U. just clear up where I want the C.G.(diamond label or center punch) of the ball in relation to my center of grip. Should I put it in the center of my palm or kicked out toward my PAP. If you could just let me know the difference(s) I may see between the two. Thanks.

Oh yeah the specs I requested are as follows 15.3#, 3-3.5 pin, 3-3.5 T/W.

It won't make a great deal of difference in reaction unless you kick the cg way rt, & then you would probably need a weight hole to get rid of the excess side weight. I would keep the cg within 1" of centerline & maybe right on midline. That should get the pin at least even with & to the right of ring finger. Maybe just a little above the finger line. You should get a great backend with that layout. I have one coming with a little longer pin & a little higher top & am laying mine out the same.
