Great week in league this time around... Practiced Monday and felt really comfortable tonight. Missed my mark on 4 frames all night - one left a 4-9 split (high), one left a 7-10 (light pocket) and 2 were high brooklyn strikes. Tied my sanctioned high series, and am now carrying a 209 average - not sure if it'll hold that high, but I think over 200 is very much attainable in summer and upcoming fall leagues. All the work is paying off

Great week MC. Congrats on your series. Keep at it, and nights like that will come more often to you.

That's good bowling. High consistent scores. My problem has always been consistency.

I prefer your scores to a 280, 150, 180

Thanks vdub - they're starting to come more and more now... it's kind of exciting to be honest.

NtB... thanks! I really love the consistent nights too. Means you're really on to adjustments and spares, but I've certainly had those all-over-the-place kind of nights too. Catch fire for one game then can't hit the pocket if your life depended on it the other two!

Struggled last night. I wasn't too far off but my ball reaction was just not there, especially in game 1. Game 2 was better but I ended with split-split in the 9th and 10th. Finally got it together in game 3 with the byte and strung together a good game. Summer league is half over already next week - playing for the first half "champion" next week (rematch against last night's team).

A 244 with > 80% single-pin spare shooting...still a good night and good way to end things!

[mc_runner]

Thanks Aslan - definitely like closing out a week with a nice game

189, 160, 223 - 572 series

Strikes: 46% (15/32)

- Multiple Pin: 42% (3/7)
Splits: 0% (0/3)

This was a tough night, everyone struggled. The shot was playing flat, almost like a sport pattern - no miss room right (it wouldn't come back) but due to the track if you missed a bit inside you were going through the nose for a split. I didn't throw my spares particularly well, either. I missed 2 10 pins (both times I got into my backswing early, which caused my timing to be off and I missed right on the release), and chopped a 2-4-5. The guy on the other team with a 210 avg. shot a 460 on the night, so it could have definitely been worse. Game 3 I just shot hard and down and in with the pearl ball and it mostly worked.

Average has leveled off to a 204, I am thinking this is probably about right for where I'm at right now!

Great comeback from the 160 MC

[mc_runner]

Thanks. When all else fails, throwing hard and fast seems to work for me!
