@ 4000, the ball(in my hands) is still considerably strong in the midlane but also has that "pop" backend wise that you are looking for. 4 inches on pin to pap might tend to roll up a little sooner than you might want with your "desired reaction shape." 65 X 5-5.5" X 40, P2/P3 hole is what I would recommend "blind" according to your specs provided.

On asymmetrical balls, a shorter Pin to Pap distance will enable the ball to retain tilt longer while still having equivalent flare. This will create a more pronounced backend motion for a lower tilt player as the ball will initiate transition farther down the lane.

Sorry for the confusion. Did not read what was given to me originally. 270 revs, no wonder you recommended @ 4" along with with his tilt @ 12* and 16 mph ball speed. Completely agree with your assessments.

Cheers for ALL the input guys..
Will this layout also suit a Sigma Tour ??? I already have a Raptor but occasionaly it will roll out & stop hooking. With the Sigma im after smooth very even arc that wont roll out like the raptor does.. To be used on medium oil lanes.. Cheers

Asymmetrical balls and symmetrical balls behave completely differently, so generally layouts are not interchangeable without some tweaking.
What layout is on your Raptor?

Hi Justin. Not sure on the dual angle of the Raptor. As that was drilled when a Pro Sect wasn't avail. Best I can give you is the pin is in the middle above the fingers about an inch. With the CG 2 inch from middle grip. With a balance hole for legal weight around P3. The ball is very lane sensitive to certain conditions. So I may look to get it re-drilled. As my mate has a 2Cruel on order & also a Pro Sect. What would you recommend for the raptor??
Thanks.

If you can get a hold of a pro sect, measure what is on the Raptor. Remember the CG is irrelevant, it is all about where the little punched oval PSA marker is when figuring out the layout.
