Question
Still confused on how to find my PAP. Can I locate it by looking at "track" on the
ball surface? how critical is it in drilling a new ball?

Answer
The pap really doesn't matter in drilling a new ball with basic weights.If you want critical weights for a very certain condition, then the pap comes into play.

TRY RUBBING SOME POWDER INTO THE SURFACE OF THE BALL. THEN WIPE IT OFF WITH YOUR HAND.YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THE TRACK BY THE LITTLE WHITE SCRATCHES ALL IN A ROW .THIS IS YOUR TRACK.
