Even though its late in the season, I decided to start my own score thread. I bowl on a modified sport shot in my Sunday 4 man league. My scores go up and down like a roller coaster but sharing is caring so...here it goes. I'll try and update every week with my struggles and include my previous weeks of straight slumping.

So first off let me just say i got Brunswick vintage Danger Zone punched up and couldn't wait to throw it, this information is crucial as $h*t got real after game 1. :cool: I started up using my haywire game 1 but struggled to make consistent shots. I had 4 opens but figured out in the 8th frame what I needed to do but couldn't carry in the 10th. I missed the cut for the eliminator by 4 pins shooting 171+33 for 204, which really sucked because I went on to "show-up" in the 2nd & 3rd game. I proceed to make a ball change in the 2nd game to the danger zone and act like i knew what i was doing. (side note) THE BALL IS GREAT in the right hands. I proceeded to shoot 259 scratch, which was clutch because of the love doubles,( won 1st and 2nd + 2nd game handicap pot). The third game I continued on and went 242, I just couldn't carry in the first 3 frames. Ended up shooting a decent 672. I wanted to be so angry about the first game because I would have won the eliminator and shot my first 700 for the season, but i got over myself, because i came in second in the 3rd game scratch pot. My team however only took 2. We were bowling scratch and the other team was locked in all together while my dad struggled with mechanical issues.
