Pinlocity Rating (PR)

How hard this pattern plays, 1 (a walled house shot) to 10 (long, flat, and heavy). Moderate. Computed from the sheet numbers and the load tables; no opinions involved.

PR3.8
  • Ratio 45%3.7Flatter patterns score higher. 10:1 walls score 1, dead flat scores 10.
  • Distance 25%3.939 to 41 ft is the playable band; longer and shorter both climb.
  • Outside oil 20%3.4Oil on boards 3 to 7 takes away the miss room, measured from the load tables.
  • Volume 10%4.820 to 26 mL is typical; heavier or lighter both add difficulty.

Notes

BEATEN PATH - 4541 This 41 foot pattern is much like the MIDDLE ROAD but two feet longer. Because of this added length, the options of attack will be a little more limited and the pattern will usually play where the most worn or highest friction part of the lane surface is. The players who excel in reading the lanes will easily find the BEATEN PATH and make this pattern look relatively easy. If you veer too far off the BEATEN PATH, it will play more difficult.
