I'm going to use this post to plug a site that a buddy of mine on my "home" forums put together that I think many of you will find useful...I'm going to post the URL of my night tonight as I entered it on a site called BowlSK (http://www.bowlsk.com):
http://www.bowlsk.com/games/view-series.html?series=58208
This site will track nearly everything in a bowling game, including (in advanced entry mode, which I use) the pins you left, stance and target boards, and quality of pocket hits (including if you missed). I hope the series I linked above gets you to sign up (free, but donations are always accepted). Feel free to reply with comments on the site.
Anyway, this night was kind of strange because I was still feeling a little sapped from recovering from a cold during the latter part of last week into the weekend, but I still managed a night that was 40 pins plus over my average. However, I missed more spares than I probably should have, and it could've easily been my second consecutive 600 series in my league.
The night was strange for my team, as well, as we didn't have our full complement: My team's captain and her husband were absent all night, and one of my other teammates had to miss the first game because of his job. We had to forfeit the first game because of the situation, but because our opponents didn't bowl within 50 pins of their average, they didn't win the point, either. We lost the two games we had our legal lineup for, so our opponents wound up with a 3-0 night (in a four-point league)...like I said, strange.
PS: BowlSK supports many mobile devices if you feel like doing your scoring at the lanes in real time. :)
