so i got to the lanes early and talked to one of the guys about my no mercy that was drilled wrong....he looked at it and it turns out he is very familiar with the ball as he has one...he agreed that it was drilled completly wrong..but we agreed to roll it and see how it reacted...goes really long and starts to hook the last 1-1/2 feet from the headpin..and thats when i take speed off of it...sooooo..he is going to redrill it himself the way he thinks i need this ball to roll..he knows how i roll so he has an idea how i want the ball to move..and when it moves it only moves about 2 to 3 boards..way off of what i was expecting...on a positive note i did try it for the second game and rolled a 195....so we will wait and see if this can be fixed...on another note i really like the way it hits the pins..seem to have a lot of power through the pins..if i can get this ball drilled right i think i will really it ...i llike it right now and its not even right...lol..thanks everyone for the comments the other night you guys are really helpfull and pleasent to talk to

Good luck with the re-drill, hope it works out the way you were expecting. Keep us updated on how it turns out.

Sucks that it did not work out for you. Glad to hear that your ball is getting fixed. Take it, that a new shop is doing the work? Did you get the ball on-line and have a local proshop drill the ball?
This ball is awesome, when it works (has oil).

well i took it back and the guy that is rdrilling it seems to know what he is doing..he explained to me how he would move the the holes around the ball to work better for the way i bowl..pretty much close to what i thought it should be.. he said that another guy that is known for rushing jobs did that ball and that he would drill himself...he is around a 215 average bowler..so im sure he knows what he is talking about..but im pondering weather or not i should change the surface on it when this is done...i see that some people have like the surface change to 1000...instead of oob surface..but eather way i will put up a picture of it when i get it done..:D

Gla dyou are getting it drilled correctly this time. It's going to make a world of difference in the reaction. After you get it back, throw it and see if it has the reaction you are looking for. If it still isn't reacting enough then I would do a sufrace adjustment and see how it goes. Let us know how it worked out.
