Oil Patterns Viper



There are 6 different professional bowling oil patterns. They are mostly bowled on by professionals from the PBA. One of those 6 are just a normal house shot. Which this is pretty much what every bowling alley lays down for either league or just open bowling. People think that these are easy and that anyone can do it. People think all you can do to move your feet and mark. Well some times its not that easy. People think who bowling 250 or better can just go bowl pro or bowl on one of the pro shots. Well wait till you get out there its not that easy. I have bowling on these and it is very hard. I thought I was good till i started this league and bowled on these.
One of the pattern is the viper. The length of the oil is 37 feet. Viper is one of the shortest oil patterns the professional bowl on. The ball will break earlier then the other oil patterns will. This oil pattern strikes with multiple angles of attack. When bowling on this pattern you should start more on the out side then you normally do. Move your feet more right if you are right handed and if you are left handed you would move your feet left. This will move your ball more outside then if you were standing left/right more. Try when throwing the ball to keep it a little straighter then normal will help it from not breaking early.When throwing a few from the oil will start to move and it will start getting dry were you are throwing with means you are going to have to move your feet either left/right to adjust to the lane condition. This makes people attack the pins from different angles. This pattern allows the ball to role more down the middle of the lane. The Viper is one of the most reactive patterns to shoot on. People that can read lanes well and move will be the ones that will shot very well one this shot. To some people this is a very easy shot but you have to have the balls that are meant for a short oil lane shot. If you have someone that is going to hook right away that might not be the best thing to use.
