Layout Help...........
« on: September 11, 2006, 02:06:26 AM »
I am bowling a league this winter that has old
Brunswick Lane Synthetics that are yellow color.
I just know they are at least 10 years old plus.

My friends tell me the condition is usally flooded
with minimal backend. It sounds like they oil the lanes
long and leave the backend dirty from open play all day.

What ball, surface and layout would you guys suggest?

Scorching or Strike Zone with an early roll drilling.
Edit: Or if you want to be extreme, get a Goliat.

MB Marker on PAP

A high pin on a heavy oil pattern? doesnt you want a ball that rolls early and flares alot?

Something dull and arcy, maybe a Goliath (or it's pending replacement) with the pin close to pap (1" - 2") and an inch or two above midline, depending on your span?

Is something like this what you had in mind?

Do you know what the pending replacement is going to be?

I have a Goliath and use it for these exact conditions.  Lots of oil with carry down.  It works really well in this environment.

When it gets too old I'll be interested in the replacement.

Any ideas or are you just speaking hypothetically?

Thanks fellas.

I have a Goliath 4 inch pin to pap. Left it in box surface.

I have a Strike Zone pin under ring with the MB kicked out 3 inches right of thumb.

Also i have a Scorchin Inferno 5 inches pin to pap over ring finger with
cg stacked below.

I hope these works.

If one of those doesn't work, I'd be shocked.

By the way, since you had these, why didn't you just ask which of them might work best? Surely after all this time here, you had some idea one of them would work.

Actually, it'll roll really funny considering that in order to put the MB on PAP and pin 5" from PAP, you'd have to deform the ball.  There was a thread a few weeks ago about putting the MB on PAP and I think we decided it'd basically kill the reaction.  Pin would be pretty much in the track (so already the ball has almost no flare) plus the PSA marker is already on the initial spin axis.  There'd be almost no track migration at all.

Pin 4" from PAP below the finger line and the MB swung right, probably a few inches below and to the right of the thumb would be an early, continuously rolling drill that would handle a lot of oil.

thinking about that, i probably should have worded it different.


how about pin to PAP 5" (low) and 0 degree layout.

it'll roll early and even with some axis rotation.
