Well the doc gave me the ok to be on my foot and walk in limited amounts. So when i go to visit my team from last year i will throw 3 or 4 shots after they are done. All i;m looking for tomorrow is how well the ball comes off my hand with the new fit. if all goes well i can start plugging my remaining equipment to change spans and pitches. Wish me luck lol

well i ended up bowling a full game. Between no head oil left on the right side, approaches like ice and the new fit it was an adventure shot 144 but 2nd half of the game was at a 200 pace. once i got my feet under me i kept creeping left and opening up my angles. ended up standing 40 with my left foot going 18 at the arrows to 8 with a 6x4 break point at 4k plus polish. struck 9th 10th and ste 8 in the 11th. now that i know the new fit is good i will start plugging my other 7 balls from last year plus i cam mow drill my Hype ,2 Clutch's, Sx1 and my globe spare :-)

No more than to be expaected after just sitting for the last 5 months. My goal for this season is to get 21 games in for a book average. So i'm not going to rush it. the onlt reason i did it last night was to see if i would be ok with the new fit before plugging and redrill10 balls. Doctor hopes to habe me out of this boot/cast i've been in for 7 years so i will have to learn how to bowl all over agaiin.

I drilled up my SX-1 ,Hype Urethane and one of my Clutch's yesterday. I am going to try and bowl 3 games tonight as i will be having another graft done on my foot thurs and will not be walking for another 2-3 weeks

SX-1 is 5.5x60x40 @2K + polish
Hype Urethane 5x3.5 or 5x55x30 factory + polish
Clutch is 4x60x35 @ 4k

Well i bowled 3 games tonight. shot 152 ( 4 opens)- 147 (4 opens)--and 222 (1 open) First 2 games i threw all 4 balls lanes were toasted on the right side so the clutch only got 3 shots. It was rolling out at 30 feet. Best look i had was with the Hype Urethane and SX-1. i can recomend the Hype as a urethane alternative to the Natural. Even polished as mine is it is stronger than the Natural. This is the ball i threw the whole 3rd game.Spare shooting was obniously very suspect.Hopefully it will only be another month till i can start back in ernest

Sounds like you'll be able to get back to normal before too long. I wish you the best of luck.
