I came across this sentence in a product listing for a fishing pole. Although I get the overall meaning, somehow I am not sure what exactly the word "drilled" means in this sentence:
ERGONOMIC GRIP
Exclusive drilled ergonomic reel seat for maximum feedback.

What's the context? If this is a product listing what they're talking about is probably clear if they provide a picture.

For those of us who don't fish, you might want to define "reel seat" - it appears to refer to the whole handle end including the grip and where the reel actually sits, but I'm not sure.

Drill here has exactly the same meaning as given in the dictionary: "1 Produce (a hole) in something by or as if by boring with a drill."

I would change exclusive to exclusively.

I know very little about fishing, but a bit more about manufacturing, and can only read that as with one or more holes drilled in it. This is probably in comparison to alternative products which either:
- have holes moulded in to them (more friction, and/or less even friction on rotating parts, as the holes will be less straight and less round)
- are solid, and therefore heavier and stiffer
- (if referring to a tube) have thicker walls. Here, drilling one end is again a way of adjusting stiffness and weight.
I suspect in this case the third point applies - the handle end is thicker than the rest of the pole and without drilling would be both heavy and stiff (assuming the carbon fibre layup wasn't too clever).
