Title: Drilling a ball------what would you suggest?
Post by: C-G ProShop-Carl on January 15, 2004, 08:28:59 AM

Ok fellas, my Darkside was stollen, so I picked up an Inferno and drilled it exactly how I had the Darkside, it is a hair stronger, but not much.

Here is the deal though-----I picked up the LAST Darkside the distributor had. If the Inferno takes care of what the Darkside used to, why drill it the same as the old one was? SO, I am taking suggestions on how I should lay out the new Darkside.

The specs are:
16lbs
2 1/2 oz of TOP
3 inch pin

I am usually very creative on my own, but just wanted to see what kind of ideas I could get.


THANKS

Picked up the Inferno in a trade. You do not actually believe I would spend money on a Brunswick product do you???

Carl, give it about 20 games, then when you BRUNSWICK dies out, drill your Darkside the same cause you very well know it would outlast a Honda engine!

my condolences to your stolen darkside

My Darkside saw very little use. It was for when the backends were so dry everything else either burned up, or hooked up too soon. Although not much use, it was a very important part of my arsenal. I think the Inferno will do the job, BUT, just incase it doesn't, that is why I have another Darkside to be drilled. If all else fails, the top weight is a little lower than my other was, so I drill it identical, and hope for an even more mild reaction on the backend.


For those you that question my loyalty-----no need to bother, Track is where its all at.
