I picked up one of Eric/Wildwoodā€™s early models that has six hole and a later model that has four. I believe they respond similarly, but the four is somehow smoother and less prone to snags/knots. @Eric_Newlin could probably talk more about the differences. He did mention iirc that after some testing he decided that four holes is better. ---

My tests were only on maple and red oak, and it was a while ago. Iā€™ve changed a few things in my response hole process since then (greater accuracy, different depths, different cutting method) so I might get different results at this point. I would trust Glen more than the results of what I tried. The smoother response feel with 6 holes makes sense. One thing Iā€™ve tried to do to get a smoother response is to intentionally offset the response holes in each half. Iā€™m not sure how much effect it has honestly, but I like the consistency. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/6/d/a6d29683d91630c68a4232c27007d14277a14df4.jpeg) ---

Yes. 6 hole done properly. ---

Iā€™ve never really experimented much with offsetting the holes, I usually donā€™t check they are aligned because it seems to work regardless. 6 hole works well when you make the holes smaller and shallower. Bradpoints arenā€™t great for 6 hole response either because they produce a harsher hole. The cone on the end of a regular twist drill but is just right. ---

Yep, that makes sense about the bradpoints. I had a template machined for me to mark the hole centers, and then I use a spring-loaded center punch to make a centering divot. While I donā€™t really know if the offsetting does anything, it makes me feel good knowing theyā€™re consistent from yoyo to yoyo. Itā€™s mostly the consistency that Iā€™m shooting more than the particular pattern. ---
