Hey Inferno,

If there is a best way, does that mean there's a worst way?  No such thing bud, it depends on the reaction you want.  If you want a strong reaction, then we lay it out for that.  If you want a controlled reaction, we can lay it out for that too.  Let us know what reaction you want and on what condition you plan on using this for, then we can help with a suggestion.  Please also supply as much personal info (pap, revs, sped, tilt..etc) as possible, it would be a great help in laying out a ball for you.  Thanks...

Rick nailed this one. There is no best way....just a best way for a desired reaction. Basically with the symmetrical equipment just lay it out as you would any other symmetrical ball. The Asymmetrical equipment is a different story.

A "strong" drilling for someone may be a "weak" drilling for another person, as their PAPs would/could be different and how they roll/spin the ball. As Rick or Ex would tell you, it is a matter of matching something for YOUR game to you. Drilling bowling balls is not like using a cookie cutter, we have to adapt to different bowlers to make them happy.
