I have a Pluto drilled 6X5 pin one inch above bridge. I also have a Neptune drilled 5X4 pin one inch above bridge. My neptune is at 2k, I love it, and it has been my most used ball this season by far. My pluto doesn't have near the hook as my Neptune. I've tried the Pluto oob and 360 plus Beans 4 sides. With the polish it's way to long and at oob 2k it still seems to squirt at the breakpoint. I guess I'll try a lower grit, 1k or even 500, I just dont want it to burn up too early. Maybe I need to get it redrilled with a stronger pin position. Any suggestions are appreciated

Remember the core in these balls is all non-existent to the extenet that if you're trying to reduce the flare, it's already 1", 2" max, with an RG diff of around .018", roughly that of a pancake core.

I think you went "way round the bend" with a 6" pin.

Plus the RG is already very high, around 2.6". I can see putting the pin above the ring finger, around 5" or 5.5" pin to PAP, but more than that, why? to what purpose? It's not as if the RG were 2.5 and the differential were .050.

while some pin manipulation can be useful, do it with a definite purpose in mind, not just to be extreme, EVEN if you have Robert Smith amount of revs.

I can see doing this to an Odyssey or even a Horizon; I can't understand doing it to a Neptune or a Pluto.
