I drilled up a Columbia Momentum Swing. Not b/c I really wanted one, but we had three in the shop and haven't been able to move them. I thought maybe I could drill one and maybe showcase it enough to sell the other two....lol

The pin is above the ring or about 4 3/4 pin to pap. The cg is stacked below the ring. No balance hole.
In box condition, it was long and smooth. It didn't exactly thrill me. Let me side bar for a moment.

--I've given up on Abralon. I just can't seem to replicate the reaction that I want with abralon. So, I bought some wet/dry sandpaper today.

I hit the cover with 800 grit paper after 10-15 shots in OOB condition. This really made the ball come to life. Earlier, aggressive and continous. I moved 3 and 2 in from box condition. I started deeper than I have all year on our house shot.

This ball, with this surface, gave me the look I've been looking for all year on our house shot. I was able to play the oil and still not get an overreaction off the dry boards.

First night out and I made nearly 50 bucks from side pots.:blob6:

Overall, I had say this ball has a good chance of earning a permanent spot in my bag.

Then you accomplished your goal. And got a decent ball to boot.
