Tuesday league:

Rough night with carry, nothing extra was falling my way.

Game 1 started with Disturbed and a pair of 10 pins, then a 9, struck before leaving 2-10, struck, 8 pin, strike, 10 pin, 2 pin, and changed ball to Hyper Cell in fill to test and ended with strike for a lowly 185.

Game 2 was more of the same even with different ball, 8 pin, strike, 4-9 converted, pocket 7-10(not converted), 10 pin, 9 pin, changed ball again to First Blood and struck, 6 pin which I flagged when spare ball hung up on my thumb, turkey and a 10 pin in the fill for a 193.

Game 3 using the First Blood I was lofting a couple feet to delay reaction started with a double, 9 pin, turkey, 3 pin, 6 pin, and punched out for 247.

185-193-247 = 625

Hadn't used the First Blood in quite awhile as the Disturbed has been working so incredibly well for me. Good to know the ball still has something in it. Spare shooting was really good 4/4 on 10 pin. 92% on all single pins, danged ball hanging up on my thumb kept me from 100% on the night.

Thursday night fun league.

Another bit of a frustrating night due to carry. Nothing but strikes in warm up, and that is usually indicative of a tough night.

Game 1 with Hyper Cell started with 4 bagger, 10 pin, which I just missed to the right about 2 feet in front of ball. Went heavy 3-6-9, turkey, 10 pin and 3-6 in the fill for a 234.

Game 2 10 pin, strike, 10 pin, 6 pin, changed ball to Distrubed and doubled, 7 pin, 4 pin, strike, 2-8 and strike in the fill for a 207.

Game 3 stuck with Disturbed and a 9 pin, 10 pin, double before going light and leaving 2-10(converted), strike, bit heavy and left 4-7, then punched out for 237.

234-207-237 = 678

Carry on back row on the night was my problem. Missing 10 pin in game was only open on the night. I'll take it though.

2 of 3 games clean is great though. And you did better than the previous entry...so good deal.

Thanks and absolutely agree. Will never turn down an average+ outing on the lanes.

Tuesday competitive low volume house league

Game 1 I had trouble finding pocket on right lane for most of the game, would hit light leaving a 2 pin or a 2-10(my only open all night) but was able to take advantage of some adjustments and finish with 194.

Game 2 Tried to switch ball up on right lane to something a bit stronger(Hyper Cell) and left 7 pin first time up with it. Next time on right lane was 10 pin so it wasn't working for me. Back to Disturbed and started to string a few together altering speed and target and ended with 233.

Game 3 had front 5 before leaving a 7 pin, on the... you guessed it right side, struck, another 7 pin, double before leaving yet another 7 pin and a nice 248.

194-233-248 = 675

All in all a good night. Carry just didn't go my way, was pocket all night long, the right side lane just wouldn't cooperate with me.
Spare shooting was very good, 4 7 pins and 3 10 pins.

Tuesday competitive league.

Last night was position round. In our league of 40 teams, we have 2 divisions. Each place in each division bowled against each other. We were in 1st for our division so we bowled for 1st place.
In warm ups we noticed that left lane wasn't hooking as much, 2 board difference for me. People were leaving 10 pins on that side as well during warm ups.

Game 1 started with strike, then pocket 7-10 on left lane(great, this is gonna be a fun night ), ran off the next 5 before going a bit fast leaving 2 pin, smash pocket and had a 5 pin that refused to fall - wobbled-tipped-rocked. 10 pin in 10th frame before I sent a test shot in the fill to try and find a new line on left lane leaving a 3-6-10 and a 222 for the game. As a team we took the game by 45 pins. Was close all the way. Anchor had a nice 279 game, 9 pin stood for him in 8th frame.

Game 2 started with double, 10 pin, turkey, 10 pin, 4 pin, turkey in 10th for a nice 238. Team took game by 65 pins. Our 2nd bowler had 288 for the game, had front 10 before he went inside a bit leaving a 9 pin and flagging it to end his game.

Game 3 we all started to struggle a bit with transition. Left lane was still messing with me. Started with strike, 3-10(left lane), strike, 3-6-9-10 which I left 10 pin standing for my 2nd open, strike, 10 pin, 6-10, and then I finally decided to make a bigger move on both lanes having been frustrated the past couple frames and punched out with the last 5 and salvaging a 216 game. Team lost this game by 65 pins, but good thing here is we were actually down 150 pin going into the 7th frame. We pulled ourselves together to cut the lead and not give up totals. All in all a successful outing for the team.

222-238-216 = 676

Looking at the stats by lane:
I struck 15 times on the right lane leaving only a 5 pin and a 6-10 leave.
I struck 8 times on left lane(3 to end game 3), left 4 10 pins, pocket 7-10, 2 pin, 4 pin, 3-6-10, 3-6-9-10 and a 3-10.

The left lane was giving the other team fits with 10 pins all night as well.

Definitely a tale of 2 very different lanes. Should have adjusted more and sooner.

Congrats on a nice series and most importantly the Win

Nice shooting as usual Vdub! Was the position round last night the end of a quarter or third and you locked up 1st place or was it a middle of the schedule position round and you still have some weeks to go to hold onto 1st?
