Tournament Lane Conditions

AMBT Description:
The BLACK WIDOW is one of the more challenging of the AMBT sport patterns. While BLACK WIDOW is not the longest pattern, because of the large volume of oil on the lane it will for sure play as the "slickest". The pattern shape is very "smooth" and allows for a multiple-angles approach to attacking it based on rev rate, lane surface, ball surface, and ball speed. Since the volume of oil is so large, bowlers will normally see a large difference in how the pattern plays from lane to lane across the house. The pattern is medium to low scoring based on its ability to confuse bowlers during early portions of the game or series as they move throughout the tournament. In order to avoid being stung, it is imperative that the bowler make quality shots early in the game in case the Black Widow decides to bite back. (Similar to the PBA Scorpion)
