    Default A nights lane play

    These are the approximate lines every one played on our pair of lanes on last nights league.

    My line is the dark green one, Now I shot a 176-221-179=576, 5 opens. I used the Bad A$$ the first game and the DV8 Dude the rest.

    The lefty (Black line) shot a 697, series for the right side were less than mine. With most scores dropping in the last game




    Balls used were
    my team:
    Motiv- Primal Rage
    Track
    White Dot
    Bad A$$ & The Dude

    the other team:
    This week:
    Motiv- Primal Rage
    C300- Smackdown
    C300- Blur Solid
    Rotogrip- Up Roar
    Hammer- Overseas ball the Vibe Peach
    Hammer- Midnight Vibe
    Ebonite- Mirage

    Are there a lot of lefties in your league? The main bowling league I'm in on Mondays has 3 total out of 8 teams. 1 Lefty on my team and 2 more on the team we just beat this past Monday. I would love to experience just for once how it feels to be the only righty bowling on fresh oil during league lol

    My Thursday trios league has two teams with two lefties and one team with one out of six teams in total. Given that a lot of the right handers either throw straight or back-up, there is usually only one person playing the right side track on any pair of lanes.

    There are also only 3 total lefties, including me, out of 10 teams in my Wednesday doubles league. And the other two lefties play straight up the middle. No one touches my line! (although, I would like to get more experience/practice with transition and making adjustments)

    I've always been one of a couple of lefties in a league.

    The league I've joined this year, with 10 4-man teams, has at least 7 lefties (including myself)--I've never seen it before. Most average less than 170, but two of them are well north of 200, and one has a 300 game this year.

    The thing I was looking at was how the scores and the lines compared and went as the lane broke down.
    These are I believe pretty typical lane play for a lot of the league.

    Of the 4 bowlers that had at least 1 200+ game
    The Lefty (210 ave) went 184-279-234

    The light green line (193 ave) went 144-221-171

    The dark blue line (178 ave) went 248-160-164

    And I (now my ave has dropped 10 pins in the last several weeks, it seems really dry for me.) went 176-221-179.

    Do you believe some of these lines will be more successful than others in the long term
