Flat condition 4:1 sport compliant.  Usually plays in.....OB to the outside.

Good luck!

Bring a FAT wallet.
Willowcreek can get expensive.
Hook monsters aren't always the way to go there.

MAKE your spares.
Striking is secondary.

If it doesn't come from Team Utah.
Just leave it in the car or at home.
free agency it is until i get a better offer.   LMAO

I bowled it this past weekend.
You have a couple of options on how to play there.

DEEP inside 4th arrowish.

Straight up the TWIG.

Good luck.

570 1st shift.
590 on 2nd shift.

Was going for a dutch 200 in game 6 of the day until the 9th frame.
Somehow the ball hooked high from playing the edge.

My teams shot 2850-2950 for the day.

I actually thought this was the most hittable shot they have put out in a while.  Bowled the noon squad started out playing 10-5 with the Creature Pearl then by the middle of second game went to the Code and played 15-5 and shot 580 team shot 3050.

Was at Willow for 4 squads this past weekend - IMHO, the shot was sneaky tough....what I mean by that is it seems like you should be able the whack the snot out of it, but the lanes transition just fast enough to make it harder than it appears to be. My team had a variation of 1050-900-1050 for 3000 on all 4 squads we bowled. As always, the team you cross with and who you follow for second shift dictates your moves - Saturday we started in track area and had to chase it left until the end, Sunday we started in the track area, started to chase it left, then had to make a large jump right on first shift...second shift was hit the hole move left 2 and 1, go high go 4 and 2 lefty. Watch your speed - get firm and it's a flat 10, get soft and it's a 4-9. Good luck!

Had a chance on sunday.
1st shift was playing out and started out fine.
Then ran into ankle issues.
Ball kept wanting to hit it for some reason.
Needless to say my scoring pace dropped off.
2nd shift I struggled big time on the dry.
If I shoot anything we put up +150 or better.

Saving it for this next sunday on the fresh/fresh.
We'll ride the righty freight train to the top of the leader board.

Too bad Brownie can't make it Sunday, he had a really nice look on the fresh too. My 2 high sets so far have been on the burn - but I have a feeling my new gravity shift will give me a better look on the fresh...

See ya Sunday.

Rob,

Thanks for bowling with us on sunday.
I wish we could have helped out Matt Stock more.
