If you are looking for something comperable to the SS pearl I would go with the RS1 over the RSX. The Rsx is earlier than the RS1. I have both and both are great balls. If you al ready have the RSX I would leave in box condition and drill strong with the pin over the ring finger and cg kicked out about 1 to 1 1/2 inches. This should give you plenty of snap!!!! Good Luck!!!!

I'm not finding something to compare with my SS pearl, guess i made ya guys think wrongly. I want something stronger that i can add on top of SS pearl.

I suggest a 3x3 drill.  Due to your lack in revs and higher ball speed a stronger pin position will allow the ball to hook when the lanes are slicker for you.  This should fit nicely above your SS Pearl.  Don't be afraid to lightly scuff it if needed.

Thanks,

3x3 drilling? I'm not quite good regarding this terms of drilling.

maybe you can tell me where should I put my pin and my CG?

Dev,

This is a stacked drilling with pin and cg 3" from your pap(positive axis point). Max flare with early and strong midlane according to RotoGrips drill sheet. Good luck. Roto Grip Rules!!!!!!

My RSX is drilled 3&3/8 stacked. I'm a stroker, and I am VERY happy with this drill/reaction. Works very well on normal house shot (for me!).
