    Default thanks to tampabayBob

    met him today he watched me and corrected a major issue I was having with my release, he even got the old NVS to hook playing the outside line. After a couple of games he and the PSO decided I should buy the track heat. I'm picking it up tomorrow And Bob will help me get it going..

    I was looking at the storm rocket ship and was told to look at the Track. Until I learn all this new stuff I'll take the advice of the coach and PSO. If He got me to hook that old oil soaked drilled wrong NVS he must be right...lol... Issue is the NVS has nothing left when it hits light. Perfect light hit and boom a 5-7.

    Lou, thanks for the cudos. I think you'll like the heat. It's aggressive, but not to the point you'll have trouble handling it. I think we hit on something having you look at the 6 pin/10 pin on your first ball, so we'll work on stuff from there. Once we get your thumb in the right place, I think that Track will give you a great look entering the pocket.

    Ist time out with the Track today. First ball in the gutter, tried playing deep inside line....lol.. Moved out side shot a high of 190 leaving only a few 10 pins a 7 and a 4 pin, washout in the 9th. ball moves alot at the end of lane, I thought my shots were going to be 7 counts and the ball jumped and went pocket and kicked the 5 out without issue. having issues leaving the 10 pin though for now. Good choice of balls for me bob. This is my second game, first was 135...lol third 169..............o and Bob shot 245 like it was nothing....lol

    Nice shooting with the 190. Keep practicing and you will see them more often.

    true statement....we have been bowling in the Wednesday afternoon senior practice league, last week I didn't even shoot 500 and he shot 765....lol. My games were all like the pictured 190 above but I couldn't make a 10 pin spare for the life of me. This week I'm bringing my old ball for 10 pins...
