You have to specifically sign up to bowl on the PBA patterns for the pro-am and it's held one night during the week.
Hope this helps

Vernon Hills put out the PBA shot last year.
This information is correct, last year they actually announced what pattern it was before practice started. This year the last I heard, it will yet again be a PBA pattern. I am looking forward to this pro-am. Not for the ball but for the experience.

I'm not a bowler, but I do play one on Ballreviews.

Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Selliger of the Southern Cal bowling league. I just got a report that a member of your team, Walter Solcheck, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true, it controveens a number of league bylaws.

Before the pro-am on Saturday, the youth travel league was playing at Hawthorn. They put out the Scorpion pattern for the youth bowlers and had a pro on each pair of lanes with them as they bowled their league. I thought that was a very cool thing to do. I think the youth bowlers enjoyed that quite a bit.
This year (so far), there is no official word on whether the Scorpion pattern or the house shot will be used for the pro-ams. I suspect it will be the Scorpion, but I don't know. I checked with center personnel, and they do not know, either.
Splendorlex - there are still openings on the pro-am squads, as far as I know. Just call the center at 847-367-1600 for more information. The times are:
Wednesday, Nov. 22 at 7:00 PM
Saturday, Nov. 25 at 4:00 and 7:00 PM
BOWL119 - the standard pro-am package is $69 for adults ($49 for juniors), which includes one spectator ticket, a pro-am certificate, and a PBA tour program. For an additional $100, a Brunswick PBA Inferno (undrilled) is included.
SGC300 - another reason that people destroy the pro-ams is that they are usually 9-pin no tap.

Is the PBA Inferno a Scorchin? Though the last thing I need is a new ball anyway. Also, do you plan on bowling it, Rick? I'll probably try to get on the Saturday night squad.

I don't plan on bowling this year's pro-am. I have several other commitments that will prevent me from doing so.
Regarding the pro-am ball, here is how it is described in the PBA pro-am flyers:
Brunswick PBA Inferno (tm) Bowling Ball ($250 value)
- Hook Potential: 160
- Coverstock: Activator Max
- Ball Finish: Dull 600 Grit
To me, that confirms what has already been said - it's a Scorchin' Inferno.

Can anyone describe what to expect out of the Scorpion pattern, if that is what they put out?

Ryan, when you sign up, tell them you want to bowl with me. Im sure they will allow it. If your bowling this and we are not on the same pair, FIND ME! I will have your money that weekend, provided that I havent sent the money already. Im bowling the Sat. at 4PM, im getting my application form in next friday.

Never bowled a PRO-AM that was a NO-TAP. Is that something new that they are doing. Last one that I bowled in was about 4 years ago.
Well the price of the balls has gone up since then, but understandable since ball prices have gone up in general. But I hope that you have fun...
