Well, just general info, 60' foul line to head pin, about 41-42" wide.  Standard stuff.

Leisure is notorious for running a super wet/dry house shot.  Pretty short, around 36-38 feet.  Bring weak equipment.  We bowl collegiately there twice a year.  It can be very high scoring, but the low volume of oil will have you lofting gutters and gunning the ball 20+ mph to keep it in play after 4 or 5 games(I saw a tournament leader shoot 770 first 3, 524 the second 3 games of the block).  It is a lefty's paradise though.  Good luck, and strap it up.

If I remember correctly, the approach on lane 1 has a big dropoff just to the left of the gutter.  Makes shooting 10 pins real interesting.

The challenge tournament will not put out a house shot ever.  I bowled it in 2002.  Definately a tighter condition.

Anything older or polished.  I say strap on the Heat.  You'll have to be left of 4th arrow by the half of the block.
