Brunswick Carolier Lanes
« on: November 19, 2004, 01:58:27 AM »
Hey Guys,
Anybody bowl in the Brunswick Carolier House lately? This is N. Brunswick, NJ.
Home of the 62nd U.S. Open, this year, I believe. I've got a tourny up there to shoot in, and I was wondering how this house plays. I've heard they are synthetics, but I get many conflicting reviews. If anyone has any experience hear, I'd love to hear from ya.

Just another Brunswick house.  Not sure how it will play being that they'll lay out a PBA Pattern, I haven't seen one of them out there.  I'll be there watching, good luck.

Jesse If I remember correctly, Pro Anvilan.  I bowled the 10 gamer last year on New Years Day.  Nice house 92(?) lanes, all on the same side, so it's a long walk from one end to the other.  What tournament are you bowling in there and where do you bowl at in the DC area?

JJ. i bowl there a few time during the year mostly in Tommy Semiz tournament. iI finished 2nd in the New years day marathon last year. They have the Brunswick pro-avilian lanes the hardest lane surface in bowling. the lower side plays much different the higerside. If you bowl on the fresh use something surface to get a good midlanes read  to carry the corners.

house pattern is normally 8 to 8 40 ft heavy in the middle, lanes play a little on the tight side.

 pro anvil lanes about 5 yrs old. nice house when they keep it clean.

Yea, its a decent house, tough on carry for me personally but i've seen others shoot lights out there. Probably favors rightys as the tournament shot has some oil and the carry is all inside thought the line is tighter there. Our state champoinships are there the day after US Open this year.... now that shot ought to be interesting. Let us know how you do up there.

The AnvilLanes let the house put out any shot they want. In this day and age that's quite a feat. They have a modern Kegel machine and know how to use it.

I've seen them take a house shot which favors lefties from the point of view of lighter oil with less use and 10 board area, literally, to shutting out house lefties by 30 pins in average to 100 pins per 3 game set.

I've seen tournaments with The House Shot and seen flat oil that barely wrinkles dull particles.

Be prepared!

Beautiful house with abysmal bowler ergonomics - new (2-3 years old) set-up of scorekeepers, chairs and diases was designed by moron.

Next Level PS is right
Upstairs (lanes 49 - 84/88 ? even I can't count that high. ) usually play tighter and stay oiled longer than downstairs. I think that's because they get less open play over the past 5 years.
