Tuesday Men's League: THS
Week 15
610 Series: 195-204-211
The sanded (800 Siaair) Optimus Solid had horrible carry. In order to strike, I had to move 1:2 right...and then had to move my vertical target out significantly. By the later part of Game 1 I was aiming about halfway down the lane and putting significant loft on the ball. This also caused my speed to drop to 12.8-13.4mph.
9 -, X, 9 /, X, 9 -, 9 /, X, X, X, 9 /9.
Was worried when I switched to the Force Pearl that my teammate was going to throw a temper tantrum...but he wasn't having a great Game 1 so he was a bit distracted. Unfortunately, I aggravated my Achilles early in Game 2 so I was struggling with that again.
X, 9 /, X, 9 -, X, X, X, 9 /, X, 9 /7.
Things were working well, but I was really battling my Achilles pain.
X, 5 3, 6 1, X, X, X, X, X, 9 /, 9 /X.

The sanded Optimus Solid sanded worked about as well as I thought it would. Actually, better than I thought it would because I under-estimated my ability to make small changes to my game to adapt.
The leg fell apart though. Got a doctor's appointment tomorrow to see what's going on. It's very difficult to make good shots when you can't get any power from your push-off leg.
2 for 5 on corner pins didn't help either...
