    Thanks tr33frog!

    Last night had a bit of a struggle with carry on the lanes. Was pocket the first 2 games for all but 3 shots.

    Game 1 - started with a double, left a 7 pin, 10 pin, 4 pin, struck, 10 pin, went high 4-6-10, struck, 10 pin, tried a different ball with poor results with a 6 count for a 189.

    Game 2 - started with turkey, 10 pin, struck, pocket 8-10, 10 pin(missed), struck and another 6 count to finish with a 210.

    Game 3 - Slowed myself down and started with the front 7, next time up did not keep myself slow and left 2-4-5, turkeyed again before finishing leaving an 8 count on the deck for a 275.

    Last game salvaged my night with a 674 series.

    Little bit of a rough night last night. The practice I had Sunday was the right thing to be working on, I just didn't keep myself consistent with the speed and paid for it a few times each game.

    Game 1 started with a double then dropped speed next 2 frames leaving a 3-6-10 and a 3-6. Then turkey before leaving a 7 pin, high again leaving a 6-10, then the wonderful 7-10 graced me with it's presence in the 10th frame for a whopping 209.

    Game 2 started with a strike, then heavy again leaving 3-6-10, which I somehow managed to pick out the 6 with my spare ball.... got my speed back up with a turkey, slightly high leaving a 4, high with a 6-10, real high leaving a 3, strike, 4 pin, and a strike to finish out with a 202.

    Game 3 made a change to my U-Turn as it will get down the lane pretty well on drier conditions. Should have made this change in game 2 but I was stubborn. First frame with ball change went light(had not had that happen all night - good sign) leaving a 2-8, converted that and ran off the next 4 before leaving a 7 pin. Doubled before leaving 6-10, then another 7 pin and strike to finish out with a 236.

    209-202-236=647

    Ok, with that considering I shot myself in the foot with my inconsistent ball speed tonight. Will continue to work on that in my practice sessions. Been a long while that I did not leave a single 10 pin, left 3 7 pins tonight which is also rare.

    Had a pretty good night aside from a rough start to it, once I got myself together and put everything else out of my mind that is.

    Game 1 started with a 9 pin leave, was actually a 4-9 but luckily the 4 was tripped out almost taking the 9 with it. Next frame up too quick on my feet and ball sailed right past headpin leaving 1-2, I proceeded to sail the ball again barely making contact with the headpin, leaving the 2 pin standing...Great, perfect start to the night. Struck, then went light again leaving a 2 pin. Doubled after that before again going light and leaving the 1-2-4-10, pick out the 1-2-4 leaving the 10 standing. Finally dropped my speed and turkeyed before going slightly high leaving a 4 pin for an even 200 game.

    Game 2 started with a 10 pin leave(yay finally finding the pocket for more than 1 frame) converted that and then ran off the next 8 strikes before seriously tugging the ball in 10th frame and leaving a 4-7-10 split. Fail!

    Game 3 Kept my approach slow and consistent, started with first 5 before leaving a 7 pin, then ran off the next 4 and then left a 10 pin, converted that for a nice 268 game.

    200-255-268 = 723

    Just an OK night last night.

    Game 1 started with a ringing 10 pin which I failed to convert. Next was a 4 pin, strike, 6-10, 7 pin, 9 pin, turkeyed, another 9 pin, and finally a 10 pin for a 205. Needless to say luck was not on my side. Can only fault myself for the few 9 pins left all on the left lane, it was hooking more.

    Game 2 again started with a 10 pin, but I made sure I converted this one. Doubled then another 9 pin, strike, 10 pin, yet another 9 pin, doubled and then left a 7 pin in 10th frame. On my conversion attempt I hit my ankle on the down swing with the ball and the ball went directly into the channel. Have not hit my ankle with a ball in more years than I can remember. Another 205.

    Game 3 started with a little apprehension about hitting my ankle again, ball speed dropped a bit and went high for a 6-10, turkeyed before leaving a 4 pin, turkeyed again before going real light leaving a 2-4-5, in 10th frame again went high leaving 3-6-9-10 which I proceeded to pick out the 3-9 from for a 220 game.

    205-205-220=630

    All in all my spare game was my downfall for the night. Missing 10 pin in game 1, missing 7 pin to end game 2 after hitting my ankle and then missing 3-6-9-10 to end game 3. As a team we took 3 of 4, but last game it was close, thought I was going to cost the team the game for missing the spare in 10th. First week in awhile that I did not have a split at all. Was pocket or high pocket the entire night with exception to the 2-4-5 that I left in game 3.

    Average = 222.13

    Single pin spare conversion = 94%(90% 10 pin conversion)

    Had an OK read on the lanes during my 3 practice shots I was able to get in. Typically need 4-5 shots to even get loose and warmed up.

    Game 1 started with a strike and then went slightly light leaving a 2-4-5, 4 bagger followed by a stone 3(ha ha, I went way high) lucky to only have left the 3. Followed that up with a strike and then high again leaving 3-6-10 and finally punching out for a nice 239. OUr team took game 1 by 254 pins. This is after giving 98 pins in handicap!

    Game 2 started with a double then light again leaving 2-4-5(2nd of the night), doubled again before laving an 8, struck and then slightly high with a 4 pin, high again 3-6-10, another 8 pin, then a 9 pin in the fill frame for a 211.

    Game 3 started with the front 4, was matching my opponent, but then I went slightly high leaving 6-10, he continued striking until the 7 frame. I picked up in 6th frame and started striking again and proceeded to punch out for a real nice 278.

    239-211-278 = 728

    All in all a good night with some targeting issues on my part. Thankfully I left no splits and had 30 clean frames! Have not had a completely clean series in quite some time. Very happy with that.

    Wow.....30 clean is damn good, nice job. I don't think I've ever come close to having a whole clean series.
