Mark O's Bowling Scores

[Mark O]

Thanks Vdub I think I did indeed shake the cobwebs out because last night was much better! 213-211-231 for 655 with no accidental lofting and no bowling on the wrong lane 28 clean with a missed 7-10 in the 10th of game 1 and a missed 10 pin in 10th of game 2 DOH!
Tonight is the first night back on Wednesdays so hopefully the good times will roll!

Wednesday wasn't quite the strike party that Tuesday was and it ended up being quite a disappointing start to the Wednesday night season. I feel like I bowled relatively well but carrying well was a different story.
Game 1: I left 1 4-pin, 1 7-pin, 1 8-pin, 1 9-pin, and 2 10-pins along with a split and 3 strikes for a measly 169 due to whiffing a couple single pins.
Game 2: I switched balls and proceeded to leave 1 4-pin, 1 7-pin, 1 8-pin, 1 9-pin, and 2 10-pins or in other words the exact same as before along with 4 strikes for a 182
Game 3: Was more of the same but I didn't leave the entire back row this game and mainly just left the corners in a clean 204 game.

169-182-204 for 555 and a 185 average to start since we stupidly establish a new average after only 3 games in this league. Better luck next time!

Another week and another set of up and down performances. This week Tuesday was the poor night while Wednesday was lights out.
177-217-150 for 544 on Tuesday. Had approach issues early, got into a bit of a groove, and then missed a few easy spares and the wheels fell off for the rest of the night.
225-235-221 for 681 on Wednesday. Very different from the night before as I was striking early and often and I can count the number of poor shots I made on one hand. Unfortunately I whiffed a 7 and a 10 and it cost me 700 but overall a very nice night.

Nice bowling in that second set

Thanks Amyers, unfortunately I didn't fare too well last night.
Shot 194-211-162 for 567 with 10(!) open frames throughout the night. Don't know what happened, just started missing everything from single pins to whiffing count on big splits. Thankfully when I struck they came in bunches so the scoring wasn't terrible but definitely in need of improvement!

[Mark O]

A little better on Wednesday, only 6 opens instead of 10 Nothing easy this time though, 5 big splits and a washout were my unfilled frames and for the most part strikes were a plenty again.
186-244-182 for 612 on the night.

Had a very nice night last night and I feel like I'm really starting to get back into the swing of things now.
Started off with a nasty greek church but followed it up with 29 clean frames which felt really good figuring my spare game has been off and I had 10 of them last Tuesday!
Scores were 211-224-238 for 673.

Those are some nice scores yourself Mark

Nice shooting Mark. I know the feeling of starting off with Greek Church. Did that exact thing couple weeks ago. Congrats on the 29 clean.

Thanks all, unfortunately it did not carry over to Wednesday and I am still having trouble putting a good week together, it''s either one night or the other but not both.
Shot 227-171-184 for 582 last night. Started off clean but then the splits started coming in game 2 and I ended up with 5 of them once the night was over. 2nd straight week I split opened in the 10th too of a close game, wasn't a real happy camper walking out of there last night!
