    Default A funny thing happened on my way to my 220 average goal....

    Opening night on my Monday Night league, I started off the year with a 189, 161, 209. 559 is not a good start. MY timing was off all night nd I fought my release from first ball untill the last...Grrrrrrrrrrr

    Okay...back on track. After my dismal performance in week #1 my week #2 looked much better. I threw my SYNC all night long, moving left as the night went on. At the end of the night, I was standing 2 boards right of extreme left and the ball was still reading great. Ended up with a 256, 247, 242 for a 745. That's more like it.

    Been there, done that...559 my first night, and 745 in week #2. Since we are scratch, there is no such thing as sand-bagging....
