I have a T-road Solid. Great ball for heavy oil. Though the one I have is a 3"-4" pin, I would suggest you drill it pin down, under or right beside the ring finger.
This definitely gets it into an earlier roll, and it by nature is a rather smooth but deceptively strong piece.
The one I have is pin under ring, with cg kicked right at about 60*
