From my experience, 30-40'. Most THS I face are in the 35-37' range.

I'm willing to bet the average length is approximately 37 feet.

44ft here, but volume is low and it burns up pretty quick.

43ft here, but we are on wood lanes and I can hook plastic starting on 25 out to 7 or so. Yeah its a whole lot of fun (not).

I think we should put down a 50ft pattern then it may be about as good as bowling on synthetics. Still hook more though lol
