Is it taboo to ask for your drill sheet?
« on: July 03, 2006, 01:06:42 AM »
I get 95% of my stuff done at the same shop, and I love his work and how my grip is set right now, but I'm looking at maybe picking up a Venus and can get a GREAT price for one, drilled, from allstarbowling-Joe.  Is it a bad thing if I ask my present driller for a copy of my sheet or my specs?  Cause I'm not sure what size grips I use, what size my thumb is, or what my exact span is either.  (Though I'm fairly certain on my span, I'm not "sure.")  So what do I do?

Stop trying to impress other people, people mostly care about what you're saying about them not you.

If the pro shop guy gets upset, then he's a baby. You should have a copy for "emergencies".

my driller doesn't do anything, he just drills it how "he thinks it should be drilled", and that's what i hate about him. when i do ask him for a certain drill he always has to ask me "why do this? why do that?" i hate him im pretty sure im going to a different driller soon!

if a customer asks for a drilling chart, he/she must be pretty happy with the fitting or would have someone else re-fit them.  i can understand trying to get a better deal, but isnt it worth a couple extra bucks to have someone drill it that knows your game and the conditions you bowl on?  Online balls are cheap, but getting the right ball, layout, cover prep. and fit is priceless.
