To answer the questions: The layout was 45 X 5 X 35, pin above, no hole. In team I played out around 10 to start with a 4000 Maxxx Zone. Then after 3 splits and a 179 game, I stepped left with the Wild Ride and targeted around 17-18ish at the arrows sliding around 27-28ish. As lond as the speed was close and the ball was around the range finder down lane, it was striking. In doubles, I played a little farther in, targeting around 24-25ish using the same breakpoint. In singles the pair was already burnt and there was no where to go. I didn't take enough weak equipment due to the rumors about how tight the lanes were. I would say that the condition is very close to last year, just with more hold in the middle.
Any more questions, please ask.
Thanks,
JG
