Question
I am looking for something a little different to try. I have several balls that are all drilled in the conventional ways. I am looking for a layout that is still legal, but more "outside the box" if you will. I have looked that the TJ layout, and seem to have  a problem getting it legal, unless I have a low top weight ball. I also have a Rico Layout drilled ball. Is there any other "weird" layouts out there that I could experiment with?

Answer
One layout that I really like to play with is to set the ball up like a full roller.  Place the pin near your thumb in the 7:30 position.  When it works it can be a lot of fun.  Use this layout with a pearlizes coverstock though.

Have fun :)
