The two balls I currently have are the "Storm Hot Rod Super Sport"(Black) and the "Columbia 300 Scout Ractive". I do already know that the balls are similar. But I do have a few questions.

I have a few question:

1. What kind of drill pattern did they drill into my balls?
2. What can I do to get the SR to react different from the SS (Black one)?

These look like standard starter patterns for bowlers who don't know their break point. They look to be between 4 1/2 to 3 3/8 from your possible pap with the cg in the palm so they don't require a weight hole to make them legal. The best way to find out how they are drilled is to take them back to your driller and have him/her figure your pap and measure the layouts out and make recommendations to achieve the reactions you want.
