So there I was, minding my own business trying to get some last minute practice in before leagues start this week...and BAM-O!!! Worst practice ever!
It appears that we were bowling on the PBA Experience Sport Pattern instead of the THS. That in itself is not such a big deal, since I am a big fan of sports patterns, but the problem was we didn't know it and it was well after the pattern had broken down and we were left with nothing but dead zones and carry down. Looking back, it was a bit humorous since I was doing everything I could think of to get the ball to the pocket short of going thumb-less and chucking it like I was channeling Belmonte....
Once we figured out what was going on (checked with the front desk also), we were able to try and recover, but the mental damage had been done already!!! So now I am re-grouping and just trying to learn from it....got to shake it off and get focused to hit it hard at league!
