Turtleroll,
You are welcome.
I had mine drilled a few years ago (around '01).
Anyway, I've had much success with the ball, winning a couple of scratch tournaments in NY, and to this day I still use it (since it hasn't been overused, and the cover is still in very good shape).
My driller used the #1 drill pattern, placing the EMB about an inch to the left and slightly down from the thumb hole, with the pin parallel and slightly right of ring finger (close to 3" pin). Ball is 16 lbs, originally had 3 oz of TW, and ending static balances are around 1/2 oz finger and 1/z oz positive.
On slightly dry to slightly oily conditions, when I decide to bring this ball for some exercise on the lanes, it still shines; it goes long, and when it breaks, it has very long continuation thru the pin deck with a very loud pop.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
BowlingWolf
