    Default Drilling

    I know drilling here for performance drilling with finger tips and thumbslug at Mccorveys Proshop at the the local alley. What is typical price for all of this? I know where another proshop is now here locally and will be checking them out cause of cheaper prices for everything but curious still to what drilling with performance with finger tips and thumb slug cost...

    Thanks

    The Pro Shop I go to charges $50 to drill reactive resin balls and $40 for plastic. Then it's another $10 for finger inserts and another $10 for a thumb slug. If you buy the ball from them you don't pay for the drilling but still have to pay for the inserts and thumb slug.

    I charge $50 to drill a reactive resin ball, $35 for a plastic or if I already have the customers specs and axis, $10 for grips, and $10 for a slug. That is pretty standard around my area too.

    The cost at our shop is $60.00 for any specialized drilling on any
    reactive resin ball and $30.00 - $40.00 for a simple drill like on a
    plastic ball and $10.00 for finger inserts and $15.00 for a urethane
    or if you so desire a vinyl thumb slug.

    Just wondering why it costs more to drill a reactive ball over a plastic one?

    It is a matter of how much thought and training is required to do it right. The plastic ball is just drilled in one spot usually, so all I have to do is measure the hand and drill it. A reactive resin ball reacts differently with the thousands of combinations of pin, cg, mb placements. That is when my schooling, training, and experience earn me a few more bucks
