Thought on Ultimate Scoring Championship

ESPN aired the tape of the finals of the Ultimate Scoring Championship today, which was meant to demonstrate the scoring potential of a typical league condition. However, this was not something we call a THS (Typical House Shot); a good-scoring house shot typically has an oil volume ratio inside boards to outside boards of 20:1. It was suggested by one of my chat mates that the ratio of the USC shot was on the order of 6:1, making it more like what the Coke Classic League bowlers are seeing on Monday nights here. Scores have been generally down in that league this year (I haven’t had an honor score to report from that league to date this season), so I wasn’t as surprised as others that the pros on today’s show didn’t score as well as one would have thought they would.
