Ok, tonight after leagues i bowled on a sport shot with a couple of friends for practice/pot bowling, and i enjoyed it.  I did this to see how my balls would react n stuff and how hard it would be.  

I wouldnt say it was super tough, but i also know we wasnt using a actual PBA shot either, it was more of a modified PBA shot( C pattern ) I think.  I dont know why the reason is, cuz i didnt program it and dont work at the house.  

But i do know it was still tough, but very score-able.  I was using a couple different balls like my X-factor and Reloaded, and Blue Thunder.  And found my best shot was with my Blue Thunder.

And thats basically cuz of the drilling, using a Axis Leverage, gave me a very mild reaction on the backend and allowed me to play a tight line 20-15.  

I also found that with this drilling i had a bit of room maybe 1-3 boards and if i started the ball deeper, i wasnt in major trouble either, because the ball got threw the heads great and didnt go wild on the backend.  

But anyways a couple of the guys who i bowl with are planning on bowling on a sport shot as much as possible and i can only wait to see what i do on a cake shot now!

I've not been able to shoot on one yet, but I'd like to try it!

I bowled on one over the summer and loved it.Didn't bowl real well, but realized how easy bowling has become.I'm president on  my friday league and changed our pattern this year to a 45ft pattern.I told no one and the funny part was how many guys complained how much oil was out there.My wife's team which has 3 women including herself, shot real good on it.The thing was they all adjusted to it, didn't complain made the adjustment.Their first games were their lowest, then everyone better from there.The old shot was a short pattern with very strong backends, anyone could hook the ball.I put something out so not everyone could get the ball to finish.I believe for one we need tougher conditions to get better, make accuracy important again, most people who bowl now a days don't want this they want to average 210 when they're only a 175 bowler, it just sickens me .I believe the abc should step in here ,  but with declining numbers that won't happen so we're stuck with the walls of china and such.

I LOVE bowling on anything without a wall.  Flat pattern, reverse block, sport, PBA, you name it.  Zack's still around here somewhere, and I think he'll agree that a traveling youth tourney we bowled in last year put down some pretty tough shots at a couple of the stops.  I have had a sanctioned sport 700 (lol, although it was the last 3 games of the 4 game set), but the sport pattern it was on was NOT all that hard.  Too much oil inside, not enough outside (although it was in no way a wall), but it was sport compliant, believe it or not.  I REALLY wish there was a sport league around here somewhere.

My cat is 21.  I never thought I'd see the day when I'd actually think that 21 year old "kitty" was a bad thing.

I don't really care what kind of lane condition I bowl on, as long as my competitors have to bowl on the same condition.
