Most of the talk about how easy the THS is comes from those who still struggle to a accomplish anything on any shot. Want to rationalize your own shortcomings? Throw stones at those who have found at least a little success even on generally softer THS conditions.

The problem in defining the numbers for high, medium and low is that there are too many variables. In my area, for a given bowler, there can be 15 pins average difference in different houses due lane surface variations alone.

In the softer houses, for the better set of bowlers in the area, I would generalize the following:

230
215
205

Even the above is rough at best. Another thing to consider is the ability of bowlers in a given area. I know of a few houses with softer (higher potential scoring) conditions, but the majority of bowlers in those houses just aren't that skilled, and it's reflected in lower overall scores.

In short, lots of things to consider.

It all depends on the House and how you match up.  Our House Stud last year ave was 241. This year same house same league he is down to 220 New oiler made the difference. The Owner said it is the same shot. I am up 6 pins up in one league and down 4 in another same house go figure. So in our house this year I would  say.

High 220+

Med  205+

Low  185+
