Bowling/Storm Drilling Question

Question
Looking for some help.   I have a Storm Special Agent (used) and am trying to find out the best way to drill it.  I am a 160 bowler, low revs, just a nice even hook.  Used lower end balls before so this is new to me!  Just want to be able to tell my "driller" where to drill (do I use the Storm Patterns from the website?)  Any advice would be appreciated!

Answer
You can use the patterns from the Storm website.  I would suggest placing the pin above the ring finger, if possible, and place the CG 2 1/2 inches to the right of  your grip center.( if you are right handed)
Once you throw the ball, you may have to adjust the surface of the ball to match up to the conditions where you bowl.

Good luck,
Chip
