Let me start by saying "hi" to the forum because I just got my first Lane #1 ball!  I received a NIB Solid Uranium in the mail yesterday and I dropped it off today to get drilled.  I had talked to the pro shop guy about what ball would be best for me, and we settled on this one.  So I found a good price online and here we are.

The only problem is that it has a 4.2 oz top weight.  The pin is 2-2.5 inches.  He said that that much top weight would make a label drill impossible, which is what he had envisioned doing with it.  I'm not very knowledgable about the dynamics of drilling, but he's basically going to have to move the CG and maybe the pin out to the side, away from the holes and stuff.  Or something.  I think you know what I mean.

He told me that it will roll more and not be as explosive in the backend, but it would still be alright.  He was assuring me that it would still be a good ball, just not quite what he would've liked to do with it.  What do you think?  Am I going to have a sissy Solid Uranium now that the drill will have to be tamer?  Can it be anywhere close to where it would with a lower top weight?  I'm picking it up tomorrow, so we'll see what he ended up doing.  I'm just a bit worried.
