went with a stacked drilling, pin above the fingers, cg about 1 1/2" from center line and mb out a few inches from thumb. not sure of exact #'s
did not throw it yet, but will update when i do and get some pics.
ball looks great.

just got a chance to throw the jigsaw today, took about 5 frames to get it lined in then went back 7 . they had a short light oil shot out so that burned away pretty quick. ball rolled very nice and didn't fly left even on my high/cross shots. carried well and sends pins flying. will try it tomorrow night in my league. there is usually a good amount of oil in the middle 1st game.

Dont really like mine, Got it drilled 5 inch from pap, above ring finger to the right, With blance hole. Kind of a skid/flip layout. The ball seems flat in Heavy oil. It has a continuous backend, but not a good snap. Might drill another one, any suggestions on layout?

I drilled mine with the Pin 5 1/2 inches from PAP above bridge . Mass Bias at 70 degrees 1 inch right of thumb hole. ( right handed ).

Oops I forgto to say it has not balance or weight hole in it neither.

From what I have seen the jigsaw is not a skid/flippy ball I also do not think it was intended to be one. Sure with drilling and surface I am sure it could be a skid flip type reaction ball. The thing is hammer has the black widow sting as a "oil" skid flip ball so that ball might be more of what you are looking for.

i find myself tugging the ball left alot, when i don't it hits very hard with good pin carry. used it wed night 1st game 169 (3 opens 5 or 6 tugs left) switch to my hot sauce go 255 (1 got it out flat, 1 reaming 10 pin) then 220 last game.

used it last week and shot around 6 but was tugging as well.


has anybody polished it? how does it change its reaction.

i like the ball but it could just be another strong asym. that will not work for me.

The Jigsaw is by far the best Hammer ball ever made!

A great ball for me, might even replace my hot sauce as my benchmark ball. I really like the hitting power of the jigsaw and how it tears up the rack, sending pins flying. I find it to be a forgiving ball as well, in that if I miss my mark I'm still able to get strikes from the jigsaw.

Ball has not quit in it.
