    Default Hrmph

    Because it was event week for Relay For Life, I didn't get a chance to throw a few for almost a week. I'm have a few mixed feelings...

    1st game - 130
    Was feeling really good, ball was releasing exactly like I wanted it to.

    2nd game - 94
    Thumb started swelling so did the wrap towel around it between turns. Sorely convinced I need it drilled out a smidge and I'll use tape to adjust when I need to

    3rd game - 72
    Donna attempted to learn how to throw a hook. As expected, it didn't end well.

    Hmmmm. Your thumb swells throwing a straight ball. Interesting.
    What was happening as you attempted to throw a hook? Were you missing right or left?

    Pretty evenly matched between left pins standing vs. right pins standing. The 7-4-8 would be glued down for one frame and then the next would be the 6-9-10. When I'd end up with three pins standing I was only usually clearing the 8 or the 9 depending.

    Occasionally the 1-2-3-5. Aim for the pocket, completely miss and usually come up with dropping the 2 or 3 and the 5. The 1 pin was mocking me.

    No consistency at all so I recognize its very hard to give advice since I was all over the place!
