Today's challenge
Finish without a gutter ball.
Where to start
A medium pattern rewards a moderate hook. Try around Left 4 to 6, lined up right of center, and adjust after your first ball.
Watch where your first ball hits. If it crosses over to the left, line up further right or use less hook. If it misses right, add hook or move left. The exact line that struck most in our simulator appears here once this lane is over.
Reading the lane
A forgiving, middle-of-the-road lane. A moderate hook into the pocket works, and small misses tend to come back.
For spares, set the hook to Straight and aim right at the pin. See how to pick up spares and oil patterns explained.
