Blomer's 2015-2016 Scores

[Blomer]

Monday Night League: 1/25/16

This is the night I have been struggling in for 6 weeks only hitting average once and shooting 494 last week, 52 points below average.

Tonight: 247-151-211

Game 1: 247 - Since I've been struggling, I started off with IQ Tour Nano. It was the right choice. Crushing the pocket from the start. Hit the first 3 then 9 spared and then first ball gutter to follow! I then closed with 7 strikes in a row.

Game 2: 151 - I lost focus and wasn't hitting my target. I was just sparing and no strike till 7th. This ball just burned up the lanes. I should of switched to Haywire to open the game.

Game 3: 211 - Switched to Haywire and got the first 3. I had all pocket hits, but left several 10's which luckily. Picked up and even got a pocket 7-10.

Tomorrow I tend to better in. But I'm going to try start with the Nano and then Haywire in the 2nd. Hopefully the slump is over.

Tuesday League: 1/26/16

187-223-193 = 603 or 201 average

Game 1: Warmed up with IQ Nano but wasn't hitting pocket so started with Haywire. Opened with front 3 and then split and then had another bad open later on.

Game 2: Couldn't get the Haywire to me much, seemed many were having issues so switched to Nano. struck first two and then spared for a bit before striking 4 in a row. I realized I wasn't getting the ball out far enough before it started to hook. This ball had no problems hooking.

Game 3: Nano started burning up, switched back to Haywire. Struck more than spared. Had two 7-10 pocket hits. Killer.

We played the first place team and took 18 of 30 points. Hopefully the 600's keep coming. Feels good back to back nights. No bowling till next Monday.

2/1/16: Monday League

203-197-193 = 593 or 197 average

Game 1: opened with IQ Nano as it worked for me last week. Played well until7th where I left a 10 pin. Struck 4 in a row in this game.

Game 2: two opens, a spli and 10 pin. Been doing well on the corners but tonight missed two.

Game 3: another split open.

Overall happy. Been struggling Monday nights, but last week got a 600 and tonight just missed, but shot 47 over average. Tried to go to Haywaire in third but wasn't hooking for me. Been experimenting with adding some quick steps to my approach to add spead, may be taking the hook out a bit. See how it goes tonight.

Thanks, but not so hot last night!

Tuesday League: 2/2/2016

214-161-145 = 520 or 173 average

Game 1: Bowled very well! Several strikes.

Game 2: splits and missing the 10! Yikes!

Game 3: Nothing was going right!

We played a team with a lot of high rev players. I think it did me in! ALways next week!

Sunday League: 2/7/2016

199-242-177 = 618 or 206 average

Game 1: Started with an open after striking a lot in warm ups. I marked out but after doubling in the 10th I threw a 6 for a 199. No one gets a 199 right?

Game 2: Started with a double then a spare and then 4 in a row and closing with a turkey. Had an open late but came up with a 242.

Game 3: Opened twice in the first 4 then another in 8th. Struggled, didn't strike much. But pulled out a 177.

I really enjoy bowling at this house. This house is in Kenosha and is really taken care of, where as where I bowl Monday and Tuesday and the house isn't even close. This is a better league, better team, I think is a reason why I bowl better there. I bowl every other Sunday here filling in. Was asked to be full time next year which I agreed. I' was suppose to bowl in 2 weeks, but we are off that week due to a tournament. So I won't be back their for a month!! Sucks!

Another solid Monday night Blomer. What's your average up to now? You've come a long way very quickly.

Thanks Bubba. Monday Night, I am at 182. 12 above last year. My goal going into the season was to get to 180 average. Tuesday at same house I'm averaging 188 and Sunday 189 at a different house. I've been adding a few quick steps on my approach which I have been liking.

Monday Night League: 2/8/16

231-254-215 = 700 or 233 average

Gam 1: started with IQ Nano as the last two weeks it had done well. Solid hits to the pocket. Missed only a ten pin. Had a 4 bigger and many other doubles.

Game 2: stayed with the Nano. By the end had to add some more speed. Had another 4 bigger and a turkey. Struck out in the 10th. Everything went right.

Game 3: started with Nano again. Usually I have to change it up. Moved 4 boards before switching to haywire in 5th where I got my first strike. Had a turkey and ended with another turkey before throwing a split and barely picking up the 7 pin to get the 215 to get my 700

The last three weeks I have been doing great considering for the month before I couldn't do anything. As mentioned, been starting with the Nanoand then to the Haywire. It's been working so why change it. Will do again tomorrow at the same house. A week from Saturday is the county tournament at the same house so hopefully I will have some momentum, though I hear the mix the pattern up a lot for it.
