Pinlocity Rating (PR)

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

PR5.5
  • Ratio 45%7.2Flatter 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%5.0Oil on boards 3 to 7 takes away the miss room, measured from the load tables.
  • Volume 10%3.320 to 26 mL is typical; heavier or lighter both add difficulty.

Notes

WINDING ROAD - 2839 | This oil pattern uses a distance of 39 feet with very little downlane help to guide the ball into the pocket. Because of the lower ratios towards the end of pattern, the greatest factor on how the WINDING ROAD will play is the lane surface and how the bowlers breakdown the pattern. The WINDING ROAD could play more inside or it could play more outside but the player who figures it out will straighten out the WINDING ROAD!
