What's the "house" shot?

Go around town and the "house" shot varies from house to house.

The total pin fall thing is fine with me. Yet, in my opinion right about now the "house" shots on the right hand side of the lane are unfair for the amount of "right handed" traffic on the lane.

Unless a true sport shot or challenge shot is laid out, it's will be a lop sided battle. Yet, you say sport shot or challenge shot around here, people run to hills.

The REAL joke is even if you made the shot challenging with a specific break point, how many are actually going to play it so the shot remains conducive to scoring? This is the only place I've ever been that the shot whether long or short, oily or dry everyone damn near uses the 10th board for a break point?! It's impossible for EVERY shot to have the 10th board for a break point?! Unless all the shots are being used are a variation of the same shot?!

Nonetheless, good idea.

Let' s see how many "players" actually have any input versus the "scorers" that just show up to shoot 280 and go home broke........

I dont see hardly any of them at RBT Tournaments Etc...  What's the problem ???

Hmmm. I just wanted to know what exactly Jeff doesn't see at the RBT tournaments, etc.

"IF" he's talking "scorers", I'm inclined to agree. Yet "if" that is truly the case, and we have "players" in this city why isn't there a decent singles scratch league anywhere to be found? Why isn't there more scratch leagues period with lane conditions other than house shots to be bowled on?

Why do you think the USBC has been trying to implement the Red, White and Blue patterns to leagues to try to get some type of "uniform" control of the lane conditions to truly find out where most of the bowlers match up on?

With all the bowlers in this city with averages above 200 (which is considered scratch) this shouldn't be a problem to pull off.

Hi  C  J 2    OneBallThatsAll is here to put his 2 cents in. People will always find fault in what i say,  But im still talking. The top bowlers around here do not want to bowl against each other, Why? You tell me. I give number one all his props. And he rightfully deserve it. The guys around these parts will never know how good they really are becuase they never go up against the best. Meaning  number one. For all who don't know who is number one, Well , I gave him that name, Thats because to me he is the most toughest bowler around. ///Greg Black  jr., /// Me myself, Well i know i'm a hell of a fighter,  I  battle number  one all week , in 3 different houses, & yes he gets the best of me majority of the time. But the guys around here will never know how it feels to compete against the best, It's easy to bowl, if you got the best on your team.   Pippen was kingkong with Jordan, with out M J, He was just a good player. Come out on wednesday after league, we are having a 3 man match, 2 game total. Greg & Isom Hawes is on the same team, Hope that don't shake you up any. Lol. Come out there this wednesday night & bring to bowlers with you, and lets play. who every read this, Bring your 3 preson team, Wednesday  at Metro Lanes, $40 a man. I'll be there with my team ready for battle.

Well with that team statement all 4 of us have won together and apart from each other so that has nothing to do with it!All i asked was for fun match ups but its taken out of context, it's funny I was around guys who actually accomplished things in this game left handed and right handed pba players and they never talk like this bowling community when the lights came on they went to war didn't matter on what or against who and bowling for less money in those leagues, and I'll be coming out there soon enough like I told u out of respect for u and what u are doing Curt and thats real talk but I have to make sure home is taking care of 1st cause they are my Motivation for

what i do on they lanes they are my determination to never quit and they come 1st safety and all but they are also

strength and that always make me the best at what I do despite no credit from others but I know God gave me

this talent and skill so I'm never goin to surrender and I'll be out there with my Team soon enough!

Bowlers's bowl !!!    Get out and bowl , compete and support the local tournaments when you can.

There is plenty of competition.  This town is just full of so called Scratch Bowlers (200) but they don't show up !

Talk is cheap Atlanta and surrounding area !!!

 

PS - What are house shots going to prove ???

Thanks - Have a great day !

Jeff just summed it up well......

What are house shots going to prove??

I couldn't have couldn't have stated it better.............
Yea right that's bs there's limitations on who's allowed to bowl the guys around here r fearful of great bowlers they only want breakpoints near 10.
All the shots have a length near 39 to 44 feet never any 33 feet or 48 Foot shots that would move breakpoint to drastically then 
Smarter bowlers would win. I see there is always a problem with intelligent bowlers around here they get banned from pot games and 
Made to think there r rules on non sanction events

It would be fun to bowl north vs south only if lanes r competetive and hv a different breakpoint. Take these guys off of their reverse blocks take the middle out of play by either flooding it or makin it super dry otherwise our southside 10 board specialist will dominate lol. If it comes down to hand position changes or speed control then we know it will be a fight cause not too many of the northside or southside bowlers do that well so like FOX said the house shots vary depending on city to city state to state center to center. Well I think the idea is great but I believe the only way this would be competitive is if each team had a very large side bet lol

Jhamall I like your style....I don't bowl much anymore, but always felt like my A game was when the track was out of play.  I like playing on the brutally tough stuff that required some manipulation of ball roll.  I know the game has always been around the second arrow, but with modern technology it's just too easy to hang out in one zone all of the time.  The better players in the city can all move around on the lane and play what it gives them.  If you put something out 44'+ or shorter than 36' it would really separate the men from the boys.

Too often now people can just switch balls over and over again and play their A game all day.  Patterns that vary in length and push you away from the track force your armswing to create different angles.  The US Open pattern is a great example.  You really never see anyone playing a breakpoint right of 10 on that pattern.....it's just not possible unless your last name is Duke.

Have you heard about the New Year's Tourney in Ft. Gordon?  They run a 12 gamer every year that's only $70.  It's always on a sport pattern and scores stay a little low.   This year they are putting out the Mark Roth Plastic ball pattern (34' and REALLY light volume).  I am short on $$ right now but have saved up some extra to go do this.  I know my game is nowhere near where it needs to be but it should be a lot of fun.
