Mo Pinel recommends pitching 1 inch away from the grip center to increase reaction versus going in at a zero pitch while placing a hole on the VAL.
I have tried 0, 1/2 inch, and 1 inch pitching away of holes on VAL.
I get too much reaction from the 1 inch pitch...USUALLY...except on a REV Leverage drilled Ebonite pantera....sweet!
I prefer the 1/2 inch pitched holes. I also drill holes 2 inches past pap to get almost the same reaction as the 1/2 inch pitch with the 2 inch past holes.
According to Richie of Lane 1 by doing either the pitching or the 2 inch past VAL or PAP one is taking out ending bottom weight and raising top weight to increase reaction. I agree with this theory and frankly don't care as whatever causes it! REaction increases with both methods! Yeah!
