Thread: last night at league

  1. #1

    Default last night at league

    First game I shot 237, second game I struggled and couldn't string any strikes together and shot 198. The third game I had the front 7 before leaving the 4,6,10 split, that I picked up, finished that game with a 243 for a 678 series.

    Eh, yea I was tormented a little bit, but it was my own fault, I didn't get the ball out far enough. Im just glad that it seems like im finally out of the slump that I was in. Im going tonight to get some practice in.

    Very nice! Don't worry it is not nearly as disappointing as a teammate of mine who shot 799 by missing both pins on a 6, 10 spare in the 10th frame of the last game. Imagine going into the last frame being able to shoot over 830, and then opening to miss 800 altogether.

    Nice set Tommy. Sounds like the lanes may have been transitioning during that second game and you didn't pick up on it until the third. Very difficult to see that happening sometimes and it can come back and bite you at the end of the nite. But you still shot well, take that to the bank and come back stronger next week.

    Good series, I shot a 679 my last night of my winter league, had a meltdown 10th frame to finish it all out. So close...but oh well!

    That elusive 700 is right around the corner. It'll come, be patient, when you least expect it.
