Advice for Chichen Itza
« on: August 18, 2017, 05:59:36 PM »
Good Afternoon,

Tomorrow I'm bowling Chichen Itza and I've never bowled it before. It looks like a very heavy house pattern with the break point being between the 7 and 9 boards at 40'. An I correct in thinking that?

I have a rev of 300, ball speed is 17mph. Just got a Blue Hammer Urethane that I had resurfaced to 500. Do you think this ball would work at transition?  Thinking of starting with my Surelock then moving to Urethane.

What would you use and how would you play it?  Going to bowl it in the 2nd squad after it's been broken down a bit by 4 games.

bowled in this pattern on the AMF hpl. playing the track had moderate success. But my best success was up the outside, playing 5 to 3 with a diesel and once some carrydown became apparent, a Ruby kinetic.

What's your rev and speed?  Also what was the surface?  I should've changed surface to get into the pocket.

Rev Rate is inbetween 350 and 400. speed in the 17.5 to 17.75 mph range. AMF HPL surface
