How Todays High Tech Bowling Balls Destory Oil Patterns
How Todays High Tech Bowling Balls Destory Oil Patterns
I pulled before and after tapes to show how these new balls destroy oil patterns.
The lane surface is generation 1 Pro-Anvil Lane,their were 10 bowlers all
right handed,3 game league play 15 minutes of practice so I estimate approximately
17 to 18 games bowled on the lane the tapes were pulled on,the after tapes were pulled 1 inch behind the fresh tapes.Fresh House Shot.pdfHouse Shot After Approximately 18 Games.pdf

Jesus ya not wrong, that right side conditioner has been obliterated....
AS REQUESTED....The all new and VERY improved "super cool" Pin_Head with super hip shades.....
And some bowlers wonder why lane patterns break down quickly.
From a tech point of view what can ya do?
All you can do is say enough is enough.If you keep adding oil to try to keep them from breaking down all the bowlers will do is buy a more aggressive ball or use more sandpaper.MOST bowlers will learn if the pattern is hooking to use tamer stuff,that will make them hold up longer.
King is right,use dont need alot of oil to have a great scoring pattern.

I agree but the older track throwers guys that can't move 5 to 10 boards left after the break down. Still have to have enough to last until frame 25 or so. That seems to increase alittle each yr.

To be honest...a good ball driller can get them a ball that rolls correctly for such patterns and surfaces
The drillers want the balls to hook as hard as possible...so they do not use arc layouts that these bowlers need
With todays oils and mach. if we went back to the days of (black u-dot,rhino,and hammer) you could put out half the oil and bowl on it for two days.
Very true. But it's not going to happen as long as the ball manufacturers have "lobbyist" at USBC headquarters.
