Attitude Shift Help
« on: February 01, 2009, 12:10:29 AM »
I bought an Attitude Shift recently, NIB never drilled.  I am moving from 16-15 lbs... and i need something to replace my ultimate inferno which is drilled mith max hook.  I throw about 14 mph, with about 300 revs.  Could i get some replies on how to drill this up?  Thanks in advance.

Depends on what reaction your looking for.  Mine is drilled pin even w/ring & about 4" from pap, & Key just r of thumb.  It's got great finish even into the 3rd game of league.  Just move w/the oil.  My 2 favorite solids are the Attitude Shift & now the VG.

This ball gets alot more angular pin over finger plane, like most asymmetrical balls it clears the fronts well and has pop on the back end left for me.

To be safe go with 4 1/2 pin to pap and adjust the mb for you tilt and speed from the morich drill sheets. Personally like the pin up ball alot more than my pin down ball that I no longer have.

And just remember that it's only an old saying for a reason.  You'll end up with huge gaps in your arsenal if you always listen to this.  Your strong equipment will roll out and your weak equipment will never turn the corner unless you have a flood or a desert.  Weaker drills on strong coverstock balls and stronger drills on weak coverstock balls have their place, and get more use from me than the extremes.

You seem to be replacing your oil ball, and drilling balls strong for use on heavier oil seems to be the logical choice. 4x4(pin and key) would probably be the way to go.

I had one of the best reactions from this ball with the pin at 5" (pin over ring) and key kicked out to 25*. I put a weight hole about 1" down my VAL. This ball was money for a long time when it came to getting a ball to open up the lane with.

Think about this on balls for more oil: Sometimes you just need the ball to be clean thru the front but pick up the midlane early. A layout with a little less flare and surface can be the answer.

Thank you for all of the responses.  It will be sitting in a box for a while.. but i'm getting a lot of 4x4 responses.. so i think i might do that layout... :S
