Monday Nite Mixed 10-07-2013
game 1 = 224 - started with 5 bagger then had to wait for a late bowler to catch up 5 frames. Sorta got me out of my groove for a bit.
game 2 = 234 - Again slamming pocket but leaving some 10's did manage to pick them up.
game 3 = 182 - Could not carry anything missed 2 10's. also missed a solid 8 pin because I was still thinking about the solid 8 pin on my spare shot.
series = 640
Not too bad and am really starting to throw the ball more consistent.

The old man showed up today but had dismal spare shooting
He shot 245, (I think there was an open in there), 267, (had a 9 -) and the last game started with the front 10, then left the 2-5, then chopped the 2 off the 5 for a score of 287, and a series of 799.

What ball did you use and pin up or down and where where you playing on the chameleon?

What ball did you use and pin up or down and where where you playing on the chameleon?
I had the best success with my Roto Grip Wrecker which is drilled pin up. I was playing between 5-10 board and lofting it out more than usual to stop it from sliding so much. The lanes were very oily with not much back end so you needed to watch ball speed as well. My area of Tennessee also was extremely humid last night which didn't help the lane conditions.

07-03-2014, 03:02 PM
Are the bowling balls you have listed all you have? If so, you might want to consider putting a little surface on the wrecker to smooth out the reaction on both the front and back for the chameleon. Just saying.

Your probably right I just have never been one to mess with my bowling ball surface or stuff like that. I pretty much just get it out of the box and throw. I averaged 216 in the fall on a THS but have learned you need to know more about equipment and drilling patterns etc... to really attack sport shots.

07-04-2014, 07:26 PM
I have been the same over the years also just leaving a ball at box finish. I have tried experimenting a little over the past couple of years with abralon pads. It really does open your eyes to some different options though.

It's interesting to see someone doing well with that ball. I don't think I've ever seen anyone throw that one well. Most of the people I see use it are rev challenged and they think the ball will fix it which doesn't really work. Congrats again.

Solid set. If it's more of a fun league, you can challenge yourself to play different lines that are out of your comfort zone. Or maybe use it to try different releases. That would most likely keep you focused.

Something that has worked for me recently, Rob Mautner posted in another thread about targeting at the pin rather than a board on the lane. I tried it and have gone 18 of 19 on the 10 pin since changing over to target the pin. 100% on all other single pins. It really does work.

Yeah, I read that and have not tried it yet. I think I will give it a shot in my monday league warmups. It feels weird though looking that far for target. So you just stare at the pin the whole approach etc..

Yeah, I read that and have not tried it yet. I think I will give it a shot in my monday league warmups. It feels weird though looking that far for target. So you just stare at the pin the whole approach etc..
In my typical approach, I watch my target until about half way through and then let my body take over. Works great.

Isn't bowling frustrating that you have 2 open frames and score a 167??? :mad:
Last week I had a 6-7-10 split in the 4th and a missed 10-pin in the 7th...scored a 177. Only difference between my game and your's was I doubled in the 10th.

And when you don't string strikes, and don't have "bad" frames, the score is still "crappy"

So you are related to your father after all.
Many times he would throw shot after shot that would put 6 pins in the pit, and the other 4 would just somehow crumble.
Next thing you know, he shoots yet another 270+ game.
After catching a boat load of carry gifts, he'll leave a weak 10 pin, and swear he got robbed.

I wouldn't go that far with my carry. Every shot slams the pocket but had stuff like a 4 pin falling forward. messenger taking out the 7 and 10, and your usual wobble 10's falling. Just one of those nights when I was the only one on the pair with great carry.
Here is a link to the league (http://www.leaguesecretary.com/bowling-alleys/tennessee/franklin/franklin-lanes/bowling-leagues/bob-burd-memorial/66042/leaguefilesstandings.aspx). they are slow on updating though.

I threw 4 games with the Brunswick Melee Cross I won on the forums months back.
206
258
258
197
I don't know if it's just that the ball was brand new out of the box but this thing hit very hard. It gave a very loud sound when it popped the pocket. the sound hitting the pins was different than my hyper cell or wrecker.
Anyway, I think I might have to find a spot for this ball for leagues.

League Average = 223 after 30 games

Yeah. When I rolled a 268 to start at a tournament a couple years ago, then followed that up with a 300. I think I got into my own head and started off rolling the ball too fast, couldn't recover in enough time and ended with 772. Same situation as you. Killed me that I was +68 after 2 games, and couldn't get it.

Will get you an award, just not a free one, unless your local association does something separate from them(have heard of some that do). You can still buy the ring though. KeepsakeBowling is the place that makes the rings. Once it shows up on USBC website under your achievements, you can call them and buy ring.
