Sunday Midday Practice: low oil synthetics
497 Series: 151-185-161
Game 1 I had one lane figured out and the other not at all. Game 2 was one frame away from being clean. Then game 3 it was the same thing as game 1…I had that one lane figured out…not the other one.
463 Series: 191 (clean)-132-140
I love clean games, but it was 3 strikes and the rest spares. Hard work. Then Games 5 and 6, the lanes were just broken down too much. I tried to ball down to my 2 polished balls but they just weren't working. I was either too much in the middle and leaving splits or it wasn't making it back to the pocket and i was leaving washouts.

Just was up early so I thought I'd get some additional practice in. Trying to figure out how low I should get. I seem to throw a good ball if I'm more upright…but with a little more speed and loft and tendency to miss right. But if I get lower I sometimes lose balance/form and pull shots left. A lesson tomorrow so hopefully I can get some helpful hints…or it'll be the opposite result where my game gets re-re-re-invented and I'm taking 2 steps back.
