Hey guys, figured out why I, along with everyone else is having to roll so slow this year in leauge. Sitting there last night before practice, I asked one of the kids that helped lay out the pattern, "how much did ya'll put down tonight." In which he replied "the same we've put down every night this year"
Any guesses???? 55 feet flat:eek: :eek:. What do you guys have laid down in your leauge house? Guess I should be happy that I can play 10 out to 2.

The THS in two houses in my area are usually 40-42 feet. You coulod usuually paly outside down and in or play a swing out to around 5.

55 flat,but how much? You're gonna need a ball with a big backend to score on that,no matter how much is laid down. But now you have some info to work with,but I would ask 'em some more questions. Get a better idea of what you're facing. Then you can come up with a plan of attack that will work. We have "The Great Wall of China" for a THS. The idea is to stay just on the outside edge of the oil and wait to hook it big on the backend. I try to go straight up the 7 or just swing it out a touch after the lanes start to change and bounce the ball off the dry.

Scoring pretty good where I'm at. Averaging 205 over the past 4 weeks. Just gotta keep reminding myself to push off with the ball low to keep my ball speed down. As far as the amount goes, it looks like you dumped your ball in a bucket of chicken grease after every throw. LOL. BWP down to 2000 w/o polish is working great for me right now. I wonder what thier gonna lay down for the tourny tonight?
