    Got to the lanes on saturday morning (big mistake the place was a mad house, and the PSO was drowning) I was able to talk to the PSO and he suggested putting in a weight hole. We did that and it didn't do a thing, I asked him what he thought we should do (short of plugging and re-drilling), and he decided to take it down to 800 then to 2000 with a polish on it. What a difference this made. Instead of rolling over the dead center of the thumb, i'm just barely clipping it now. I'm going to throw it on Thursday night during league and see how it does. He said that if i'm still clipping the edge we can try bumping it up and he'd do it for free, since I already paid him the 8 bucks for the weight hole and first sanding job. The good news was I strung 5 strikes together in the first 7 balls that I threw with it after the polishing.

    I'd have to look at it, and maybe include a picture as I really dont know a whole lot about how to describe the location.
