Hi

Two years ago I usually go around 12:00-8:00pm and it pretty dry. Now I go there around 12:00am-2:00am ,it feel like your in desert. So right now I have no idea when they put any oil on the lane. R u coming to anahiem, CA?. I don't know if you still remember me. I brought the SD73 from you last year. Maybe while your down here in CA , We can go and bowl at Linbrook together.

It's my main house. I am there at least 3 days a week and I work there as Customer Service. With fresh oil, the outsides aren't too dry.

BK,
I was there on Sunday and I'm going try and go back with some of my stuff in August.
I was using a Johnny Petraglia ball off the rack and I was inside with it and I couldn't keep it off the head pin. I would like to bowl it when there is a fresh shot out.

House is lightly oiled about 10am and that's about it until the league starts. The lanes get tourched because it's open 24/7 for bowling.

It get's so dry there that I've actually had a track burned into one of my balls (Inferno) from the friction.

If you're going to practice, take somehing that you don't mind ruinin or show up right after 10am to open bowl.

I bowled a WCST tournament there a few years back, and I wasn't overly impressed with the way the lanes held up. They seemed to dry out much faster than I would have expected for a 10-game block.

Everyone was experiencing the same thing, so no big deal.

Maybe next time I go I'll just take my rubber ball with me.

It's not even bad. I bowl a league there with fresh oil and I can throw it outside of 10 just fine. I also bowl a second shift league at 4 PM and can do well with my Hy-Road. You guys must have gone at bad times.
