Yskes,

Both houses are synthetic for the Michigan State USBC Tournament.  Northway Lanes has old Brunswick Anvilane synthetics, and Sherman Bowling Center has the Brunswick Pro-Anvilanes, both centers operate with a Kegel Machine, but not sure if they'll use the house machines to oil the Beaten Path.  Both houses are pay and spray houses when they use their house patterns, Northway of a longer and heavier volume, and Sherman of a medium length and medium volume, so you get the idea of where the tracks are in each center.  Both centers should yield plenty of good scores on this non typical house condition pattern, just by the fact carry is nuts good in both houses, I don't care what the local whiner league hacks in Muskegon say, I know what the good bowlers from across the mitten state say about these houses.
