    Default Our Goal, NOT to Lose more then 10 games all season!

    [B]The dream team has a goal this season! The Dude, Iceman, Manic, Super Chad, and Biker Larry! We decided not to lose more then 10 games all league season. We only have four losses so far into the season. Started out with two 4-0,s last two, (one a role off}, we won all 8! 5 person teams. We seem to be able to come through when ever one is down, another steps up. Its a great team, and we have a lot of Fun!
    Tonight We Bowl!!! What do you think the odds of Dream Team achieving GOAL??

    well iceman i cna say this it is close only 6 away and it is jsut the start of the bowling season alot more to go so the dream team might have 1 bad night and not take all points again making that gap smaller soo my guess is 50% chance of doing it

    What is the league handicap if there is one and what is your team's averages and handicaps approximately? I give you a 5% chance if the league gives bowlers 90% of anything above 210. Good luck with your endeavor.
    Bowling - it's easy when you understand all the physics beneath the surface.

    League handicap is 80% of 220 I think... might be 80% of 210...

    Averages: Chad is at about 233 right now, 231 for me, Larry about 210, Mike I think is in the 180-189 range (should be getting better now that he is breaking out of his slump and has a new ball), and I think Joyce is in the 150-155 range.


    There has been nights we've given away 250-290 pins of handicap and still taken all 4.

    I'll admit, I think it might be impossible, but it will be fun to see if we can do it.

    The basis is 220 and you have two bowlers over 230? No wonder you're nearly unbeatable. Even at 100% handicap the lower average teams would be spotting you 24 pins a game! Your league needs to to raise the basis to 240.

    Those exist? I've never even heard of a percentage based off 240. Highest I've heard of is 230.

    The percentage is suppose to be based of off the highest average in the league. My Sat night league currently has the same issue with four bowlers over the set average.

    Well the highest average last season wasn't 220 or higher for what it's worth...
