Balance hole on Shock & Awe
« on: January 28, 2008, 03:20:18 PM »
On a Shock & Awe drilled for sharp breakpoint for a high tracker where should the balance hole be placed? Thanks for your help!

Sometimes you don't get to choose. It depends on if you have to have the hole there to get rid of excess weight to make the ball statically legal.

A balance hole means the ball is over. So the balance hole will need to be wherever it falls to take out the excess weight to make it legal. There are also things like flare increasing holes or flare decreasing holes Those are used to make more flare or less flare.

Thanks for the replies. It was mentioned on the drill sheet but I seem to have misplaced it.

I dont know if its the same, but the Levrg says run a line from grip center through cg to VAL, put the hole on the VAL where it meets.
