I would like to start this thread to find out from those of you who have the BWB on what drill pattern you have in the ball and what conditions you throw on. Also if you could describe the style player you are. For example, High rev rate, low rev rate, speed , ect. It seems many are having succes with the BWB but not much is mentioned on the drilling . I am not only referring to the members here buy reports and reviews from all over. Please post them here.

Here is the layout on my BWB, 5" pin.

I typically bowl on synthetics with medium oil, THS. Im a Lefty with medium to high revs, medium speed. This ball works very well for me on this shot. Moves through the heads and breaks clean on the backend, regardless of carrydown. Great ball for this shot.
I have a traveling league that puts down a sport pattern that i bowl in once a month, and also a PBA league getting ready to start up. I will post on those more when i use the ball on them.

I'd be curious to know what type of track everyone has low, medium or high.

My ball is drilled with the #3 drilling for low track (on the website, looks exactly like the way my ball is layed out, if I find my camera later I'll put up a picture.)

It goes longer than my T-Road and about as long as my No Mercy used to but just destroys the pocket. For the first 10 games I threw with this ball I was struggling just to find a line, but now that I did I'm loving the ball. I only bowl on synthetics with a THS and am playing from around 19 to 5. I would say I'm rev challenged but I haven't measured them at all, so I'm not sure.

Drilling~ pin right of ring and up slightly, CG kicked right, MB about 2" right of thumb, weight hole about on midline, OOB surface.

Revs~ medium

Speed~ approx. 15 mph

Track~ medium/high track

Style~ stroker for the most part

Conditions~ wooden lanes, THS shot about 42'-44' of oil. I also bowl in a few more centers from synthetics, guardian, etc.

Results~ My Bite is at least 5 boards stronger than my BW Solid, and has more recovery off of the dry. Normally the 1st game is only one thrown with the Bite, unless I really want to move left and play a big swing shot. Great carry, great forgiveness, raw power.

Drilling #2 (all-purpose) medium track OOB finish. I am stroker throwing low-medium revs and 15-17 mph. Lanes are synthetic playing on fresh oiled league shot.

I am using it as my go to ball right now. I have longer drilled Gamebreaker and stronger drilled Hawgzilla for different looks. Cherry Vibe also available for drier/shorter conditions.

Seems there is a vaqriation of drill layouts. But with everyone the ball reacts strong at the breakpoint. Interesting
