I went on a trip to a monastery when I was in H.S. The priest had their own 2 lane alley that we could bowl in. They told us in advance so i took a spare ball and another ball, that I can't remember the name of. The first time i threw the ball, it hit the lane and turned left. I could barely keep the ball on the lane, even with the spare ball. They were old wooden lanes that probably hadn't been oiled in years.
In my bag: Roto Grip Haywire, Ebonite Cyclone Gamebreaker, Brunswick danger zone vintage, Brunswick C-system Maxxed out and Columbia WD. High Game 300 (x3) high series 790...still searching for the 800.

The White House still has a pair of lanes. Gary Faulkner played on them a few months ago.

I guess there's room for both...lol, who's Gary Faulkner

Gary bowls like every tournament down this way. He was in the one last weekend in Orlando. He's a really nice guy

My last outting in league, the lanes were EXTREMELY DRY, and I just couldn't get anything to over hook. I pulled out 4 balls and I kept crossing the headpin, even after moving extreme left. I left there so deflated. I scored somewhere in the 440's for 3 games. I lost 8 points off my average!?!?!? I haven't been that frustrated since I got a new coach that totally disassembled my game. I had to walk out of there thinking, "I really need a low performance ball." I almost pulled out a plastic ball off the shelf. LOL... We return tonight and I'm hoping things are better.
I went in once to a AMF Center after a holiday weekend with a buddy of mine.
I was throwing the ball up the track about 19mph at the pins (fairly high speed)...the ball never made 3/4 down the lane before hooking into the left gutter.
To add insult to injury, after 3/4 game...my buddies brand new (that's why we were going to practice...so he could try out his new ball) got chewed up in the ball return.
