For the TQR it was the Cheetah.

For the plastic ball tournament it has been VERY modified.

It was modified...30ml of oil at its thickest. Pretty blended, not hard at all.


If it was modified for the qualifying.. why were the scores so much lower with the normal equipment ??
--------------------
16-17 mph,350 rpm,PAP 5 1/2 x 3/8up, HighGame 300 x 3, High Series 782
Book Average 215 / 205,PBA Xperience ave180








I would love to see you go try and bowl out there with them, you would probably average about 170.

If scores werent that different back in the day then how come Mark Roth's average record stood for so long???  I was expecting alot different scores from this tournament. I expected a tough scoring environment and players playing tighter lines like the videos you see of bowlers in the 80's throwing urethane (not rubber like someone else said) where the shots barely moved and you had to be more accurate.

I'm ignorant? You are the one saying that because some of the guys in the tourney have a high average that they are walled up. I was wrong about my statement though. You would have to get through the TQR to make it to the plastic part, and that would never happen.

I would say it's just one round...I waited for a couple of games and expected the scores to dramaticly drop with transition.

At first I thought they were bowling at Vernon Hills, IL...the easiest bowling alley on the planet.

Now I'm starting to wonder if they are scoring better with plastic they they would with whatever ball they wanted. Besides, this is the new Cheetah and is much harder then the old pattern.

Besides the fact these guys are the best in the world which they are, it is now 100% obvious the bowlers have a huge advantage with the lane machine on tour that double strips.

Keep in mind when it comes to tv, expect the scores to be very low to medium I predict. Remember the "ultimate scoring championship" when the bowlers broke records but on tv with the people and the lights effecting the lane and the money on the line they struggled.

I'm interested in knowing what types of lines and angles these guys are playing this week. Obviously, the scores are much higher than any of us were predicting. We all knew going in that it was a "Modified Cheetah" pattern, but I'm not sure we were expecting "Dried Out Cheetah With Extra Bounce and Double Stripped Backends", which sounds like it may be the case (I really don't know since I'm not there to watch). If that's the case, though, then what's the point of having a plastic ball tournament?

LOL! I was waiting too...oh well.

Lol @ Z Jellsey and pate08.

I was more interested in you two having a conversation than this thread lol.

To Z Jellsey - I don't like walls either, I prefer anything tough anyday. Walls are okay for mindless bowling, but I like challenge much better. I'd be the one voting goodbye to the existance of house shots lol.

Btw, pate08 you're slacking on response to his last one, so continue!
