Title: Can someone give me some arsenal comments/help?
Post by: FastTracker33 on July 10, 2007, 07:03:34 AM

Hey all, i have all these NIB waiting to be drilled now:

Hammer Razor Blade
Hammer ANGER
Track Power Machine

I already have a Hammer Toxic drilled up and ready to go, but can someone help out as to where all my NIB's would fit in an arsenal? And possibly some layout advice too? Thanks! All my info is in my profile!

I think that the ball reaction of the Toxic is pretty close to the Power Machine, so i would drill them the same

If, as you say Chris, the ball reaction of the Power Machine is very close to the Toxic the he already has, then why drill the PM at all?  I don't understand why you advised him to drill another ball the same as one that he already has.  Two balls for the same reaction??????

If the reaction is the same, the keep the PM NIB undrilled and use it as an eventual replacement for the Toxic.

I'm not sure how these balls would fit.  Drilling your arsenal can be done several ways.

I have had great success drilling each ball in an arsenal the same.  The same exact layout on each ball.  Just let the covers and cores separate the reactions between the balls.  Now if your using a 4 ball arsenal you could drill 3 the same and put a radically different layout on the 4th ball.  

Some bowlers use a different layout on each ball in there arsenal.  I don't like this approach.  

Another very good approach is to use the same pin location but change the MB and or CG location.  Plus you could use or not use balance holes.

If your going to take the "drill everything the same" approach then just use your favorite layout.

I agree with you jock why would you drill up anothe ball with the same reaction.  i know you can change the cover to make it do some things diff.  but still i think looking at what he has for a start i may take the power machine and trade it for a vibe maybe or something for a little drier conditions.  

just my opinion.
