You say you're throwing a BVP Punisher, which is a great light to medium oil ball. If you're punisher is finishing harder, it means it's not burning up all of its energy through the heads and midlane. If the GP2 is drilled very aggressive and the Punisher is giving similar results (but hits harder), it's likely that the GP2 is just burning up. It's a VERY STRONG ball in regards to oil-handling capabilites in comparison to the Punisher.
Scenario 1, I don't understand why the GP2 would only hook 10 boards on a heavy-oil shot.
Scenario 2, the ball is definitely burning up. It's made for heavy-oil and drilling the ball aggressive means it wants super-duper-heavy-oil. The ball is losing its energy here, thus resulting in poor continuation through the pins which results in a lot of 10 pins.
See if you can find a very heavy-oil shot (ie. 42'+ of oil with relatively clean backends. If the GP2 doesn't outhook your other equipment on this shot, there's likely to be a problem regarding the drilling and match up to your game). If not, you could probably polish it and re-drill it weaker.
