    If you want to talk with the industry's best (WorldWide) about lane condition, that's the guys that DO the lanes.

    www.bowltech.com/content/btubb/ubbthread...

    These guys get very technical about the shot they put out and why.

    Most places, they try to get top preformence out of whatever Lane Machine the owner decides to buy. You can tell alot about the shot by what lane machine they own and how well it's maintained. A Century100 (an antique) VS a new Kegel Lane Walker. The oil ("lane conditioner") that's used, and the temp of the oil when the lanes were done.
    As the temps cool, conditioner flows thicker if the lane machine is stored in the back next to a cold wall. (heating the back, not important, a coat was cheaper, thanks boss)
    All tiny factors that can give you a tourney edge before you throw a ball.

    Oil temp, Air temp, lane bed temp, the temp of your bowling ball, humitity level, all effect the shot. A warm ball grips VERY well. A ball from the January trunk of a car, been there all week, can break in half.

    Mom always said...
    Don't change your throw, change where you stand before the throw.
    Use YOUR swing everytime, and dial it in 1/2 a board at a time.


    Bowl-Tech is for us bowling industry folks to meet. We talk about all things Bowling, from the other side of the counter.
    "How do we get YOU the smiles and fun you came here for."

    Lane patterns are a huge topic of discusion.
    They can give you all the info on lanes and lane machines. Find out what type of machine, wood or synthetic lanes, type of conditioner. Maybe the lane-man at your center is a member there. Or should be!

    No Art, you're not the only one. Bowlspace is the best place for bowler helping bowlers.
    I check-in once a day to see who's bloging about what. Fun to read to record personal high scores and series report(braggers), and the "I should'a stayed home" night on the lanes. Bowl-Crazy people like us found our way here. (thanks Kyle- whomever you are)
