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.

PR4.3
  • Ratio 45%5.2Flatter patterns score higher. 10:1 walls score 1, dead flat scores 10.
  • Distance 25%3.639 to 41 ft is the playable band; longer and shorter both climb.
  • Outside oil 20%3.9Oil on boards 3 to 7 takes away the miss room, measured from the load tables.
  • Volume 10%3.220 to 26 mL is typical; heavier or lighter both add difficulty.

Notes

Kegel Kode 4239 - In political terms, this pattern is centrism in nature because the characteristics lie between the extremes of having to play too far to the right or too far to the left. The MIDDLE ROAD is a 39 foot pattern that is moderately challenging; it's not too easy nor is it not too tough. The best mindset and line for this pattern is usually somewhere near the middle of the road. Kegel Pattern Library: Kegel Patterns / Navigation Patterns.
