After watching all of these videos, I can't help but notice that most people are around 7 boards difference between shots and still hitting the pocket flush. Is this because of the way the lanes are oiled, or is it release. I bowl at Melton and they still wooden lanes that are about 12 - 14 years old. I know that if you bowl the same line there for more than 4 frames, you end up going through the head. Then you move 1 board in and the ball skids through and hits light. Nobody at Melton has an average over 195 (including everybody who works there) and yet they are telling me that they average over 210 elsewhere. Can the lanes at Melton reallty be that bad ???
Not so much a case of being that bad a it is a case of other centres putting down patterns that make it so easy (ditches). There is no doubt that they could put something realistic down but they chose not to as it would cost them money. This has all been discussed on other threads.

Second to last shot of league on Tuesday nights at Keon Park, lanes are completely burnt up.

Just be AWESOME, like me.
Are you still bowling nowadays? and if so is it the same wild style or a more toned down version?
