But you are negating the fact that you are also removing side weight.  Side weight will help to push the ball down the lane as well.  By removing this weight you are going to make the ball hook earlier.  Also depending on excatly where the weight hole is dependant to his PAP you could end up with a hook-set reaction.

If you wanted to just add finger weight you can drill the thumb deeper, but this will remove top weight as well.

All of Track's polished balls start at 1000 grit wet sand and then polish is added. I suggest hitting it with 1500 or 2000 and then polish it with Magic Shine or equivalent. This will make a bigger difference than a balance hole, since ball surface/cover makes up about 70% of a balls reaction. If you want to add finger weight you could also drill the thumb deeper instead of a balance hole in the thumb quadrant to alleviate removing side weight or use a combination of deeper thumb and hole in thumb quad, I would place the hole 1-2" inside VAL this should reduce the flare potential a bit.
