Better take some shorts, bowled this weekend and the Air conditioner does not work, glad its only april, U guys bowling in may are in deep trouble, the oil will evaporate before it even hits the lane. had to be 90+ degrees in there yesterday. Thats the dryest lanes Ive seen in 15 years. Plastic ball anyone?

we bowled there yesterday and today was team and it was more than hot in there and we had fresh oil for one game. So be ready to melt it was over 90 degrees in the afternoon. But over all was a fun time so have fun and remember bowling well is a plus.

Bowled there over the past weekend. Shot was dry to say the least. I was playing fourth arrow with my feet close to the gutter and throwing it about 18mph. I would say I am a little more than a tweener. The carry problems I had were mostly 8 and 9's other than that it was ok. I tried almost all the balls I carry but ended up playing a VE on the line I mentioned. Pure Swing was too much. My Tornado had a okay look as well. You don't need anything to aggressive thats for sure. Hope this helps and good luck.

Notes from the State Tourney......DONT GO! I was sweating like a ho in church! the lanes were burnt up. I was playing two boards left of 5th arrow with a plastic ball and it was still beakin the nose. Im lucky if I shot 1700 in all events.....invest in more volumes of oil and a functioning Air conditioner. They had a fire in January and spent a lot fo time trying to get ready for the tourney. They shouldve just moved it to antoher place.

your right not good at all and yes they should have moved it for sure. We had a group of 25 go up there and no one did good at all. Very bad trip for us 4 hours and I'm not sure we will be doing that again.

BBU · « **Reply #29 on:** April 19, 2010, 08:19:36 PM »

We drove three hours there. I knew that it was going to be dry from all of the comments I got on here, but seriously...I was rainbowing a plastic ball and an old beat up Ebonite Cougar 30+ boards....

Better get a better ball driller, I wasnt having any trouble getting my stuff down the lane even though it was dry but you must have balls drilled for it. Most ball drillers will not drill you something to get this far down the lane ans still make the corner because they will go really straight on house shots. If you ever get in this situation again feel free to shoot me a email or call me I can help.
