Bowling on the US Open pattern the next two weeks.

Anyone have some layouts that work well on flatter patterns??

Rico, axis, etc.....

Weaker pin placement 5½-6½ from pap. with very dull surfaces from start. 500-1000 abralon by hand works best for me. high speed high rev, low tracker. elite black label 5½ with 1000 abralon, TFD 500 abralon 6½ from pap work incredible from start. and then downgrade in cover streangth

i started actually with a noize with a 3 3/8" pin i think then moved to my blue vibe with a 1 1/2" pin and then moved to a dead flush with a 5" pin and took hand out

Nothing too snappy, an arcy ball will help. I dont think it was very heavy oil for us.

Use something very smooth on the backend. I use a RICO drilled Secret Agent from Storm. And have 1000 abralon on it

--------------------
High Game = 299
High Series = 776
Revs/Speed = 200rpm at 15-17 mph

Krumpy used a New Standard, a Dynamo, and a Heist at 2000 Abralon plus light polish (last we talked, he might have changed it once he got there) and did fairly well:

Rank    Event           Division        Games                   Score
189     Singles         Regular         210,268,238             716
1175    Team            Regular         198,210,192             2782
570     All Events      Regular         600,609,716             1925
4324    Doubles         Regular         191,216,202             1143

Thanks Scott.

On the US Open pattern last night, I ended up using an Ogre Particle at 2000, drilled pin up and 5x4.5. Stood 40 playing 26-14 and went 840 for 4 games so I was very happy. It gave me a bit of hold that I couldn't get out of anything else.
