The basic drill instructions for EVERY symmetric & dynamic cored ball are virtually the same. Only asymmetric cored balls are different.

The Glad are one of those generic cored but great balance and matching of core to cover. That's the essential trick before releasing a ball to the public and I believe Vis has done it in this case. Couldn't resist it myself and ordered a Glad Pearl.

Still trying to get it. When I get it. When I drill. When I use it, yes.

Actually not true.  Though the balls may be the same for symmetric cores, another drill sheet would have to be used then.  I checked and the site shows drilling instuctions coming soon for the Glads.

From Visionary's website " The GLADIATOR core takes a candy wrapper shape and adds a "MOHAWK" to produce a mild mass bias and better pin positions.  The med-low RG ball with a medium differential creates a good midlane roll with a continuous arc reaction on the backend.  With similar characteristics but a more durable cover - anyone who liked the Executioner line should love the Gladiators."  

There is no MB marker drill as any other symmetrical ball as the differences side by side would not be considered large ratio's in asymmetry.
