legal drilling
« on: April 02, 2009, 01:49:22 PM »
Can you legally drill a ball without a thumbhole?     Can you just put finger holes in the ball?
--------------------
High game 300, 298(no middle finger) 290, 290(no middle finger)
High series 804
High triplicate 774
High average 221
best game. when I was 6 I bowled a 158

I have a 16# morich awesome finish I want to trade.  1 season on it.    I am looking for 15# stuff

Yes, as long as the statics are legal.

Keep in mind that the statics for a ball with no thumb are different than a ball with the usual 3 gripping holes.

Grip center becomes the bridge in a ball with no thumbhole so the static weight is measured differently.
