Kegel Beaten Path
« on: April 29, 2009, 06:38:48 AM »
Anyone have much experience with this pattern?  Bowling state tournament this weekend..  S/D on Anvilane Team on HPL...

How does it typically play and break down?  What type of equipment do you recommend?

I played this at a JBT event, it was a few weeks ago, i can't really explain it, i can't believe i forgot, but it was fairly easy though, i used a heavy oil ball and played around 20-3.

Just got back from bowling state on this this weekend.
Anything outside of 9-10 was gone for me. I tried to keep my breakpoint around 12. Breaksdown pretty quick after 2-3 games, I needed to keep moving left and keep the breakpoint about the same. I missed this transition and didn't move left fast enough.
Had one guy with quite a bit of hand on our pair and he was making it look pretty easy,as long as he didn't get out past 8 or so, but I don't have that shot in my bag. lol.
Ronnie Sparks and Fero Williams were a couple pairs down from us. Ronnie shot 297 on the fresh, but I didn't get a chance to see where he was playing that game.
Pretty much an inside shot without much hold left and not alot of recover right. The backends were pretty clean for us, I just had a hard time creating enough angle to carry.
Hope some of this rambling helps you, Good luck and bowl great!

I used a 2nd Dimension at 2000 abralon, drilled pin up 4 X 4 1/2 on HPL. I started out with my right foot on 24 playing 15 to 7 and moved in as the pattern broke down, using the same break point.(I'm a righty,btw.) After three games switched to the Hy-Road with oob surface, and same drill pattern. This was a 5 game sweeper skipping a pair.

Fero is a beast...  he can override any pattern and Ronnie is flat out talented...

Thanks for all your input..  Do you think Pro Bowl and Royal Scot played similar?

Yeah.. it was fun watching those guys, but not getting knocked out of brackets by them

I didn't bowl team at all so I can't help with how they played differently.
BTW I don't know if you're in that area or if you have to travel in but if you get in brackets they won't payout doubles until everyone is done bowling singles. I left money there as I wasn't going to wait an hour and a half to get paid for a game that was finished 3 hours before. Maybe this is normal but I thought I'd give you a heads up.

Yeah, I am not worried about brackets..  we live about 50 miles south, not too bad of a travel..
