Anyone see the lane condition for the ABC Masters? The scoring looks low. Another one to one condition like the US Open?
After 5 games 38+ for top 63 and 12- for 150 place out of 590 bowlers. No 300 games

I talked last night to a friend out at Reno who sponsor's a couple guys on tour.
He stated the pattern was 34 feet so lot's of hook. I don't know if that included any buff, what the ratio's are, or any other details.
At that point he felt that even would probably make the cut. Looks like his guess was correct.

They've used the same 34' Sport Shot compliant pattern for the last 3 Masters. Since I couldn't find anything on either the ABC or PBA pages, it makes sense that they are using the same pattern again this year.

Last year it was 34 feet, flat on the leftside and a shot on the right. Before that, there was a shot on both sides and the leftys dominated.
I have the impression that the scores were higher last year. So, did they make it flat on the rightside this year also?
Still not sure what the shot is this year is.

Yeah, the pros now get to bowl on a true sport shot, and not a PBA-enhanced sport shot. The few times I have bowled at the stadium, it is always tough, but I do not know if they use the same pattern that I was on.
