A Pro Pin bowling ball from SPI Bowling Products (Storm, Roto Grip, and 900 Global) is where the Pin (Core Top) distance from the CG (Center of Gravity) is 6 - 6 1/2" out. Anything more than 6 1/2" would be considered an X-Blem.
This is a premium, first-quality ball crafted to the same exacting standards as the rest of these elite lines - ensuring top-tier performance and durability without any compromises.
Due to changes in the USBC rules for static balances and weight holes, Pro Pins/Pro Cg's no longer have specialized and unique layouts. These balls can be drilled using any of the SPI drilling layouts. NOTE - On Pro CG balls, the final placement of the CG (Center of Gravity) will appear to be in an odd location but this will not affect the ball reaction.
