Bowling on the PBA Viper Pattern
July 1, 2009 by Bowl 900
Filed under Bowling Lessons: Advanced
Here are some tips for attacking the Viper Pattern.
Length: 37 feet
A viper strikes with multiple angles of attack. This pattern will challenge players to attack the pins from multiple angles in order to score well.
2008 Winners on Viper: It was a day of firsts as Brad Angelo and Stefanie Nation each captured their first career PBA title at the Pepsi Viper Championship at Thunder Alley in Omaha, the second stop of the 2008-09 Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour.
Description: The 2009-10 Viper has also been changed to allow for more ball roll in the middle part of the lane. While the Viper is a multiple angles pattern and normally yields medium to high scores, bowlers this season will need to place a premium on the ball traveling straight through the front part of the lane when the lanes are “fresh”. Once Viper breaks down, multiple angles are available for attack. Even with the changes, Viper still remains the most versatile of the five named patterns and can be used on any lane surface. The champion on Viper will be the bowler who can outsmart their opponent playing multiple lines. 2009-10 Lumber Liquidators PBA Tournaments Using Viper: Viper Championship – Allen Park, MI PBA Match Play Championship – Norwich, CT PBA Marathon Open – Baltimore, MD
