Appears to be on the shorter side of the pin to cg distance, but it should be fine for most "pin under fingers" types of layouts. You should be alright with moving the pin/cg up your grip line.. this will depend on the starting top weight of the ball to some extent. You can always just drill the finger holes a little deeper than normal if necessary and/or use a weight hole int he finger pos quadrant.

He eels over. It was a fluke, but there he was, lying on the deck,
