    Default Rev Rate check

    So I have been tinkering all summer with stuff and decided to check my rev rate. Obviously I'm disappointed with how low it is but figured I would post this any way so those that don't know how to check can see. The shots are off target because I was trying to stay out of the way of the camera. Scoring wasn't what I was there for so who cares. I did hit the camera once that's why the angle changed during filming. I used my Natural Pearl and Reckless this session.

    I really love the consistency of synthetic lanes but dang I miss the sound of wood.

    From just above your finger to your PAP. Close is good enough as long as you can see it rotate.

    I never realized how messed up and dirty the gutters were until I watched this video. Our poor lane topography I've always known about. They are getting resurfaced again in August. The only issue with that is the past six years they have said it was the last cut they could do. I bet if they checked, the USBC would not sanction any bowling at my home center. This video was on lane 6. Lanes 1-4 are actually 40 years older.

    I grew up bowling on wood lanes that were probably 40 years old. The center flooded in the early 90's and the went to synthetic. But I miss the sound that wood lanes have. My son is always impressed that I can listen to the pin setter and tell if it's AMF or Brunswick without looking.
