I have one, drilled it a few months ago.

Mine is drilled pin in ring finger and cg swung a hair, identical to my Buzz. For me, it gets good length and makes a controlled move with better than average hitting power. Definitely not as strong off the spot as my Buzz.

Mine rolls in a way that it doesn't jump off the spot, great ball for an over/under condition. I have read that the Satisfaxion can be quite skid/flippy but I have not seen that ball motion yet. Then again, my release calms a lot of snappiness when it comes to ball that are supposed to fire.

Put your favorite drill on it and have fun.

i looks like my yeah babys and also like the big bang r. well i got mine used but its single drill and in almost perfect condition. span is really close if not just right, just needs different inserts. came stacked with pin just alittle over the ring and CG ever so slightly alittle right. the thing that worries me is the weight hole is about an inch or so outside my VAL. i dont know i'll just have to throw it i guess.

One of the best reacting balls I've thrown.  Went long and turned strong.  Not the most controllable Lanemasters ball, but considering how smooth so many of their balls are, it isn't really a knock on the Satisfaxion.

i said this would be my "fun" ball. i took it to my pro shop guy and had him hit it with 2000 abralon then put a coat of "sauce" on it. my goodness this thing is shinny and tacky. cant wait to finally throw it!
