At most bowling tournaments, there will be a lane graph on the wall to help bowlers prepare for competition.

Make sure to take away two main things from a lane graph – oil pattern distance and total volume.

What about the badger pattern? 52-31?
DrPapufu8923 I played in the Badger and Don Carter oil patterns. I threw it between the 12-14th boards which went pretty well hitting the pocket. I’ve used a Snap Lock 1500 grit Bowling ball and it helped me attack the oil pattern.
