    Tuesday:

    222, 269, 182 - 673 series

    Strikes: 71% (25/35)
    Spares: 44% (4/9)
    - Single Pin: 66% (4/6)
    - Multiple Pin: 0% (0/3)
    Splits: 0% (0/2)
    First ball average: 9.51

    Well, I didn't have my best stuff ironically. I just found a line that gave me miss room. However I was a bit dicey on spares especially game 1 when I missed a 9 pin (hooked by it) and a 10 pin (dumped it). Game 2 I made an adjustment - higher starting stance and straightened up a bit - and got my form/shot back. Couple of 10 pins and strikes throughout. game 3 I was behind on transition and playing catch up. Wasn't as bad as the score indicated, had a couple of 4-10 splits and a chopped bucket. Kinda a bummer though as it coulda been a big night, shot was playing easy. We are actually going to be going for first place in position night (our season is in thirds) next week, first time for this league so that should be fun. Average is now at 220, which is my goal for the year!

    Nice shooting as usual MC. We all go through those dicey spare moments. You'll come back and shoot big next week.

    Thanks vdub! Last night was interesting.

    198, 279, 177 - 654 series

    Strikes: 54% (19/35)
    Spares: 78% (11/14)
    - Single Pin: 90% (9/10)
    - Multiple Pin: 50% (2/4)
    Splits: 0% (0/1)
    First ball average: 9.29

    Was OK in game 1, lost it a bit at the end with an open in the 9th. Didn't string much together. Game 2 I switched up to the haywire and couldn't miss. Had a 10 pin in the third frame and strikes the rest! Game 3 I'm not sure what happened but all that carry turned into ringing 10s, stone 8s (2)... and a split when I tried to make an adjustment. Went back to the hyroad and dealt with a couple more 10s but at least had a better look there. I didn't really feel like the lane was transitioning much but I must have missed something there. In all I had 7 9-counts in game 3 alone.

    The bipolar night ended up near average, so that's not bad. On the positive side, we won the first third of the league and will be in the rolloff at the end of the year

    I with ya! Still finding my legs with the Sure Lock, but I think it's about to light up. Just have to get rid of my own dumb mistakes.

    Post disappeared! 11/14/17:

    186, 235, 217 - 638 series

    Strikes: 48% (16/33)
    Spares: 93% (15/16)
    - Single Pin: 100% (12/12)
    - Multiple Pin: 75% (3/4)
    Splits: 50% (1/2)
    First ball average: 9.33

    First game I tried forcing a shot to work with the ball I wanted to use - that was dumb. A bunch of single pins and a split later, I changed balls towards the mid-end of game 1. Game 2 and 3 I took what the lanes were giving me. Which resulted in several 10 pins, but I covered them all. Will be glad to be off the end pair next week. We had a rematch (last week was position week, this week was scheduling chance) against the same team as last week and they were salty again, and we beat em again.... which was quite satisfying.

    Forgot to post last week:

    222, 206, 236 - 664 series

    Strikes: 57% (20/35)
    Spares: 76% (10/13)
    - Single Pin: 100% (8/8)
    - Multiple Pin: 40% (2/5)
    Splits: 25% (1/4)
    First ball average: 9.31

    All in all wasn't a bad night. Lanes played very differently, I was 5 boards left on the left lane vs. the right. Took some tweaking in game 2 to find the right angles. Clean on the night outside of a few splits early on.

    Thank you bowl! had a similar set this week:

    244, 203, 221 - 668 series

    Strikes: 61% (21/34)
    Spares: 75% (9/12)
    - Single Pin: 85% (6/7)
    - Multiple Pin: 60% (3/5)
    Splits: 0% (0/2)
    First ball average: 9.21

    Ironically the only clean game I had was game 2. Game 1 was excellent minus a big split I got slow on. Game 2 was actually pretty close to dutch as I adjusted to the lanes a little bit late. Lot of single pins on the right lane. Game 3 I re-found my line but dumped a 10 pin. Again all in all, a solid night : )
