Hi guys, I haven't used the search function, so I'm sorry if something like this has already been explained.
Being from a center that has wooden lanes, & quite an old oiling machine (that is quite easy to block the condition) when I go away to bowl on synthetic, I'm finding either MASSIVE dead zones, or majorly burned out edges.
What my question is, can deadzones be a result of the synthetic surface brand? Or is it always purely dependant on the oilling condition?
I understand that compared to wood, synthetic lanes are harder & have a smaller ball 'footprint', thus technically the level of friction is reduced.. perhaps resulting in an exagerated flooded edge? Playing these lanes isn't really a problem as long as I am on target, but I was just heavilly curious after hearing that in particular, brunswick PLS play wet down the edge deliberately to eliminate bumper bowling. Would be super cool to practice on I reckon.
Thanks!
