    All very interesting... Some better, some worse, others just kind of consistent. I can understand how in a sport league, you're scores could and maybe would get better as the night goes on and the lanes break down, thus creating an easier line for yourself.


    and yeah Mike, you should get yourself a bowling app!


    and VDub that is strange how you convert the 10 pins better on a different night. Is it at a different alley? If it is, maybe the approaches are better for you.

    I bowl better as the night goes on but that isn't always reflected in the third game score. Physically I am throwing better shots but I need to stay ahead of the transition better than I do. If there was a fourth game, my fourth game would be the best.
    Ball speed: 17 - 18.5 mph Rev rate: 400ish
    PAP 6 1/8" over 1/4" up
    13° axis tilt / 30°-60° axis rotation
    Thumbless bowler
    High game: 300 High series: 804 High average: 217

Of course, there might be some people who get worse because of attitude issues, or maybe because of alcoholic beverages as well.


    This is my average for each game so far on my Thursday league...

    Game 1: 243.92
    Game 2: 241.67
    Game 3: 221.42


    That's crazy to see a 20 pin drop in my opinion, but I think it's more because I'm doing so well the first two games, rather than doing so poorly the last game, if that makes sense. And as I explained, it's gotta be because the pattern breaking down as well.

    So what is it for you? Worse or better as the night goes on?
    Yes, its crazy Jason,,,, WE FEEL YOUR FRICKEN PAIN,,,, how do you sleep at night,,, 244, 242, and then sink to a 221!
    I do know a good shrink if you need help dealing with THE PAIN!!

    I do have a bowling app, (I almost forgot)! Its on my kindlefire. I just get all caught up in the game and don't take the time to put my reading glasses on and punch them small Icons!! It must be a generational thing! ( Believe me I tried it for a while but forgot to inter results, ect.. ect... I will pull it out and give it a try again Sunday!! As God AS my Witness! I am so Focused on bowling, (while bowling), that a kindlefire and entering data, just doesn't Fire Me Up!!
