Question
i was wondering what would be a good layout for my mutant cell. i average 208  16-17 mph and a good amount of rev not sure on the number. i am using a Brunswick rattler right now .any thing would be helpful  

Answer
No matter the layout on your mutant cell, it will hook sooner than your rattler.  If you are only going to have the two balls, I would choose a simple layout for the cell.  If you go with too aggressive of a layout on the cell, it will make it one dimensional and you wont be able to use it as often as you would like.  I would just place the pin near the ring finger with about an inch CG shift to the right of your grip center.  You might have to go further than that to get the mass bias to the right of the thumb hole.  If so, an extra hole may be needed to get it back in to legal specs.

You can polish the cell if additional length is needed.

Good luck,
Chip
