Brunswick Desert Sky - 2/10/18
Our event this weekend was at Brunswick Desert Sky lanes! We had a great turn out with 84 entries (60 qualifying entries and 24 economy parlay), 24 cashers, and a 1 in 3.5 cash ratio and paid out over $5,200.00 in main and side event prize fund. We had two bowlers, Andy Morin and Ben Dewberry, win the Momma’s Mystery score for a total of $950.00. It just goes to show you how much $5.00 can win you if your score is drawn.
The players bowled on a 36ft Brunswick Phase 1 oil pattern that provided slightly higher cut scores than usual. Due to the shorter oil pattern it allowed players to get some free hook on the gutter which is similar to the house shot. However, it is still a sport pattern, and isn't a walk in the park. There isn't a lot of oil in the middle of the lane, like a house shot, so you have to get it to the outside friction or the ball will run high.
