My Heat Blast is a second from Ebay (Bowlingball.com). It has a 4.5 - 5 inch pin, and 2 oz. top weight. It works perfectly.

All x-blem balls are fine to drill and reaction is the same as the regular ones.

X-blem mean the the ball colors are off slightly, logo too big or small or wrong side, bubble on the pin, mispell, etc.... The core and coverstock is the same.

Hope that help.

On seconds, X blems, etc...what worries me, especially on asymmetricals, is the fact are the mass biases correctly marked? It is very important when drilling the ball, and what if it is not marked correctly, and the only way to find the correct mass bias would be use a determinator...so..if you pro shop does not have one (not many do) you may not know where the mass bias is...

Symmetrical s are much less a worry when buying a second...

And of course...the Robo could just be a color issue, etc.
