    I take it that you meant less than 12lbs.
    Sorry for the confusion, I meant to say that I weighed less than 120lb. I'm not sure what my actual weight was but 120 is what I weighed when I graduated from high school. The ball weighed 15 lb.

    When you find the thumb shape that is just right, see if your pro shop will be able to take a mold and keep it on file with your drill measurments. I was unaware that was possible until the pro in The Sports Shop at Brunswick Zone Hazlet offered. I was having similar problems for a while. I had one ball drilled when weather was warm, another when cold, I didn't know how to relax my hand through the swing. As a result I had more thumb hole demensions than I knew. I could bury the thumb relax and roll with one ball. Another fellt snug and I tended to half bury the thumb, tobbien me of revs. Another the hole was too big and I tended to grab the ball.

    Now they are all identical. Same delivery for every ball.
    I live by three simples rules:

    1. Don't ever ask about my business
    2. Never discuss business at the table
    3. Don't ever side with anyone against the family
