Nomad Pearl - drilling help
« on: May 20, 2010, 06:18:02 AM »
I am picking up a Nomad Pearl, single drill, very few games. Was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on it. I am looking for something to fit under a Bounty Hunter and Jigsaw Corner, but a little stronger then a Hy-Road. I am RH, about 19 MPH, with about 380-390 RPM. Any thoughts on layouts would be appreciated.

PS. another option I was thinking of was trying a RICO drill on it, to be a control ball, first out of my bag, going to the Hy-Road if this goes a little too long. Anyone tried this on this ball yet? Thanks again.

I don't have one yet, but a buddy of mine throws his on a very high friction, dryish, TSH.

He has his drilled pin down, about 2 inches right of ring finger, and about an inch and a half down. The cg is kicked out, maybe 3-4 inches right.(righthander)

His ball rolls up evenly and kind of hook sets to the pocket. Now remember this is on a high friction, dry to the right condition. Hope that helps to give you an idea of it's relative strength.
