[@cikeithfl]

[@johnyarbrough9280]

Thank you so very much for making amazing video,

[@AlexSanchez-sd4on]

Professional Work!!!

[@johnyarbrough9280]

I enjoyed watching this video

[@jasongordon13]

Fabulous video

[@jimbobinman]

I noticed that you didn't mention anything about lane topography. Even though you put the same pattern on each lane does not mean you will get the same reaction from lane to lane. Unfortunately, it is impossible for man to make each lane perfectly flat. There will be highs and lows in the lanes. Many bowlers do not understand why they can be bowling on a pair and need to play the lanes differently.

[@jerryvanzant]

They look pretty flat to me. You're probably talking about the high and low spots that aren't seen.

[@cruise2023]

@@jerryvanzant That's what he said !

[@Zizie_sc]

Correct, however most people don’t realize that most of this topography is minimal when it comes to effecting the bowlers ball reaction. In extreme cases, yes It’s worth looking into. But ultimately, bowlers need be reminded that adjustability is a key to the sport.

[@kellydavis4954]

is the oil dispersed like a fuel injector when its in the machine or just like how it was put into the beaker

[@bigboots6114]

does it like a fuel injector stream

[@mikekatim5414]

Dear sir can you let me know about ratio when using ratio 5.1 what will be the water n cleaner amount

[@viet13o1]

D/S killed me

[@michianabaddriversin4690]

What is this "OIL" you speak of..pretty sure my center sends an empty machine down the lanes...lol

[@xiaolee979]

Mine just walls up every pair except the one that I'm bowling on - Every bowler ever.

[@jerryvanzant]

How about a 27 foot and very heavy flat oil pattern except for the last three boards on the outside.

[@jakesnussbuster3565]

What about it

[@jerryvanzant]

See how bowlers including the pros play them.

[@jerryvanzant]

If there was an oil pattern called the tiger oil pattern how would you imagine it to be short in length, long in length or somewhere in between, how much oil, and the scoring pace.

[@jerryvanzant]

How would you think a short pattern like that would play?

[@bigboots6114]

@@jerryvanzant go watch the PBA wolf pattern

[@FredSoDak]

Secret oil sauce -- why not simply tell us what the conditioner is? That same conditioner will play differently in every center.

[@bigboots6114]

funny how you all screwed up lanes 37-38 and 41-42 at the queens this yr
