My Rule is drilled up with the pin to my PAP is 41/2 inches and the MB is right below my thumb and 51/2 inches out to the PAP. The Pin is about 13/4 right and is in the 2 o'clock position of my ring finger. Static weights are 1/4 thumb,  1oz top and 1/2 side. I have to make sure I get this ball down early and not hit up on the ball if there is lots of oil and lots of carry down. I will drill up a GP2 next week but wanted to get some thoughts from you guys that have drilled them and thrown them. My ball speed is about 15 and a stroker no less.
My thinking is to move the MB to the right and I know some of you like the pin above the ring finger and some like it below. I am anxious to see what you say.
your advice will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

jody,

What kind of reaction would you like to get out of the GP2 vs what you get from the Rule?

Clint..
Thanks for your reply, it makes a lot of sense.

jody,

Clint's layout should not be too bad for what you are looking for. It stabilizes the core some so it will not JUMP....but the cover is going to be aggressive enough that it will still hook up in oil.

Hey Jody,

Placing the mb near or on val like Clint mentions is fine.  This will (like Big Me) states, get started sooner and won't be jumpy at all.  The only question left is placement of your pin, whether above, next to or below fingers is a question you can answer best.  Above will give you the most length, finger level = med length and below for early roll.  Your choice dependent upon how much oil you see on this particular shot.  Hope this helps...
