Hey I was wondering does anyone know how to drill up one of these? Its the light blue one. With the a-h thing on it

My Brother had one, I don't remember very much about it, other than the fact that he hated it and gave it away. I will do some research, and report back if I can find a drill sheet.

Blitz, if you go to Ball Selector dot com and join, (it's free) they have a pic of the black one which I think has the same weight block. It is asymmetrical and you drill it by lining up the different letters up with the pin to get different break point shapes. I don't think the mass bias is strong, so it doesn't probably matter much more than a symmetrical, but that is just my guess. If you take the letter at the 6 o'clock position from the pin and turn it to what ever mb angle you want and put a modern drilling on it with that.

There were two pale blue Omegas. The white dot hooked more then the blue dot. There's also a green Omega and the Black one that Jim mentions. The Black one was supposed to hook the most.

The drill sheet shows about 10 drillings (for left and right) for this ball. But basically most show the pin in the center of the grip with E at 12:00 (for right hander). A up is the second strongest drilling. My scanner is not working or I'd send some to you. But you might be able to contact Ebonite and see if they can send you a drill sheet.

You really should contact Ebonite and see if you can get some printed info on Omega layouts. If the info is unavailable you might consider using the A - E line as your centerline with A closest to the fingerholes.

I still have my Omega although I retired it 10 years ago when I went to 15# balls. The A-H thing is called the "driller's clock". There are 10 drilling options. I used drilling #1 which gave me good length with a little bit of flip on the end. For my layout the centerline goes through the center of the driller's clock and point A. The Omega symbol or the CG (center of gravity)on my ball is 1 5/8" from the center of the driller's clock and is located in the A-B quadrant. The pin-CG distance is 5" and is approximately at 1:30 o'clock in relation to the driller's clock when A is at 12 o'clock. Your CG and Pin will probably be different than mine, hence the need to contact Ebonite for further instruction. On a scale of 1-5(largest) the length for Drilling #1 is 4 and the hook is a 3.

I think that you will find that your ball's acryllium coverstock to be very mild compared to the coverstocks on today's balls. In other words, the ball can be expected to go fairly straight.

There were 2 versions of the Omega Acryllium ball...regular and for dryer conditions. Both were light blue.

The drill sheets for this ball are about 4+. I have them, but my home scanner is not working or I'd make them up for you. However, this ball is an old school ball now. It was ahead of its time when it came out. I'm not so sure that you are finding a diamond in the rough. I had a new one drilled up for me and hated it. It just didn't budge.

I email Ebonite about a week ago and drilled the ball. I drilled it pin in center of grip "A" right below the bridge at 12 oclock. Pretty much is skip snap. It worked best on dry lanes with absolutely no oil. was standing 45 over 27 out to 7-8 and still hit pretty hard. It went longer than my maxim and hooked a ton more.
