Although it is not a tournament condition, I bowled leagues at Sams Town for
many years. The general conditions are very dry, can play outside very well
if you have limited hand or a lot of speed. I quit bowling there this year
because of the lack of oil--at 62 years of age, I just couldn't throw the
ball hard enough to keep it online. It also seemed to me that the weaker
your release, the better the scores. But I don't know anything about what
the tournament conditions will be. I don't remember anyone throwing any-
thing but polished.
