Called Jimbo, he's putting in my order for the ball. If they have a higher RG one in stock and one with approx. 3-1/2 oz. top weight, he'll have it this evening. I'm taking off a 1/2 day tomorrow to get that drilled and drive up to Plano for this weekends SASBA 4 member team Tourn..... Jaime B. has filled it up with 48 teams and lots of good men and women bowlers showing up for it. Should be a lot of fun....

After looking at the 4L drilling it kinda looks like the way your horizon is laid out. The numbers are higher so it should be a step below from your horizon wich is cool, I would move the cg to a 45* instead of the 75 thats on your horizon this will give you more arc instead of flip. JMO I'm wanting a strong arc or close to flip with this ball's backend reaction. You are very welcomed to call Jimbo and give him a couple of tweeks to that pattern when he lays it out, as far as the cg to 45 instead of 75 and anyother change you feel would be good....I also said I wanted one in the higher rg spectrum of the avg. for that ball.... I'm hoping for a 3.2 to 3.6 area..... 3.9 is top you can get it in....

Did you happen to watch the smoking video on brunsnick.com lol. I hope your not exspecting the ball to look the same when you throw it lmao. Yes I did and no I am not expecting my ball to react like his did. Besides, he was on synthetics on an 5 and out small swing shot.....Wished I bowled at that house, I love that type of shot. I'd avg. higher on it than I do at Arm I....lol....

Will the ball be there today by any chance? I might make a trip up there and drill it or lay it out for you as long as jimbo doesnt mind.

I believe Jimbo said it would be there this evening "if" they have one meeting the specs I want. You'll probably need to call Jimbo first before going out. But if it is in this evening, I don't mind you laying it out or even drilling it for that matter, as long as Jimbo don't mind. I am having to pay Jimbo for any difference in cost between the wholesale value of the One and this Smokin Inferno, (if any) plus drilling costs. I don't mind the drilling money going to you if Jimbo will give it to you or some of it, it's up to him, I have no control over that. It is his shop and equipment...

I dont ask for any money to drill peoples stuff, I consider it a way of trying out my experience & knowledge at the expense of jimbos reputation and shop. If I botch a drill or bad layout then its jimbos reputation not as much as it is mine.
You dont have to pay me anything for doing the research or giveing you ideas, I just hope it works out for you because the way your bowling you need all the help you can get to try and beat me on tuesday nights lol.

After screwed's post I just figured out his money problem!!!!!!! #doh# After laying out these bowling balls he's been drilling for all these different people that don't work he's having to fork out extra money to buy them a new ball that can be layed out in a layout that will work for them #SmlyROFL#

Ha ha lol, drop the Mic and get off the stage because this isn't open Mic night at the comedy club nor armature night at the Apollo lol. Seems like your stuff works just fine for you lol. must not of done to bad on laying your stuff out. I haven't had any complaints that I know of nor have I had to replace someones ball. If I did screw up someones ball I wouldn't replace it, I wont be held liable for it but like I said jimbo would. Maybe I shouldn't drill any more stuff or suggest layouts for people. I did have a very strange call Friday night from Mano. He wanted to know about a ball i (supposedly) drilled for someone over in baytown. He was wanting to know about a weight hole or something that was put in the ball and how I found the location of it or something like that. I really had know idea what he was talking about and he wouldn't go into detail about it. I told him I didn't know what ball he was talking about and that I probably didn't even drill the ball for the said person because it didn't sound familiar and I think I would of recalled drill the ball for him because I didn't drill a whole lot of balls when I bowled over there. 99%of the balls I drilled when bowling over there were mine and don't recall the person in question. I know the guy but highly doubt I drilled his ball, I think I would remember lol. I will found out tuesday night after the wife bowls over there. the only thing I could think of is maybe it was one of my old balls or something. I really dint know, I just thought it was strange that he would call me and ask about it when I didn't even know he had my number. Very strange indeeeeeeeed.

lol I know you were playing. I doubt thats why he was calling, i have know idea if there was something behind it or if he was just curious either way i couldnt help him because I had know idea what he was talking about and that was pretty much it. Oh and as far as my money problems that just comes with haveing a family i guess and me not working overtime like I useualy do and buying this new house has been a burden along with all the other stuff lol.
