    Default Kegel Sport Series - DEAD MAN'S CURVE lane pattern

    Last night, went bowling with a few guys, and the lane guy put down the pattern known as Dead Man's Curve with the Kegel Lane Walker. Here's the description of the pattern:

    http://www.kegel.net/patternlibrary/...r=0&iKodLane=0

    I seemed to be fine playing straight up 7. If I tugged it and say missed a few boards to the right, the ball would grab too early, and I was looking at hitting high, or even brooklyn. A little left of target, or a little more speed, then I'm looking at something like the 3-9 or washout.

    Shot 178-210-207 for the night.

    This is the kind of stuff I joined this forum for. I knew the lanes always seem to be oiled slightly different from week to week. I always have to make adjustments or some sort, but I had no idea they all had names. hahaha.

    Think of me as the Manny Ramirez of bowling. I dumbed it down to the simplest terms. In baseball, Manny see ball, Manny hit ball. In bowling, Kevin see pins, Kevin try to hit pins, and adjust as necessary to obtain the best possible results.
    Not helping the situation since 1983.

    Don't sell yourself short, you didn't crud up your game to be traded.
    All pins are POSSESSED, I'm just happy to be able to exorcise the poor dears and put them out of their misery.
    It's the least I can do
