I bowled on it a few months ago, the 'newer' version of it.  I found that it was very playable, and our hook spot was around the 5-6-7 area way down lane.  I found myself throwing straight up 6 with my Dimension, and it worked well.  Carry down was predictable, and as it started to break down it got more wiggle room.  I didn't get to see the pattern just open up, but I'm sure I'd just keep moving left.  Very fun pattern, loads of oil up front and drier backends create loads of carrydown for a long while (about 2 games for me, with 4 folks on a pair).  I hope this helps!  

I used both shiny and dull.  I start off with dull and went to shiny when it started to open up a bit.

This pattern can play alot of different ways.  I like it the most out of all the patterns, most of the time I play way in with my breakpoint around 6-7.  Sometimes, depending on the surface a hook spot can develop on the 1-2 board.  If that happens, I'll  play it firing around 7-8 out to the one board and scored there well also.  I usually throw strong balls with weaker drills and strong surfaces.
