At this point, I'm just fed up with it. Either I'm way behind the transition, or in the case of last night, stumbling around. My speed control has also been awful.

i had been the opposite the last few weeks. Last week started with a 253 and ended with a 152 (592). Finally a night where i got better as the night went on. But we had a bye and i was willing to try different things. We still needed to be within 50 of our team average to get the points but its a little easier when you don't have an opponent

Some signs of life tonight.

235/257/203 = 695. Two opens on the night. The weekly pocket 7-10, and a 3-10 (my only shot not in the pocket). 2nd game was clean. Managed to keep up with the transition this week. Carry was tough the last game. Finally felt like I had control tonight, which is far better then where I've been. Average at 207.

I. Hate. Bowling.....

169/226/200 = 595. Started the first game with a ring 10 (missed), and then a pocket 7-10. We've now learned that 7/8 are the "weird" pair at this house. They don't behave like any of the other pairs. Unfortunately, took me the first game to remind myself of this. 3 boards to the right, and the first game would likely have been better. They say a sure sign of progress is when all your mistakes are new ones. No progress tonight....

Back to 206.

More of nothing.

214/172/185 = 571. Another spectacular evening started with seeing the teenager oiling the lanes again when we got in. This time, he never checked the setting on the machine, which was last used by one of the owners to put out a skill shot for the Monday league. 48' of heavy oil was the condition for the night. Four opens on the night (all of the 2-pin split variety). Just couldn't get a finish with the equipment I have. However, for the first time in weeks, NO POCKET 7-10 SPLIT! Whatever.....

[Timmyb]

Decent night.

190/213/284 = 687. First game was a struggle to get any cadence going. Footwork was terrible. 2 splits did in that game. better 2nd, but whiffed a 2 pin spare. 3rd game was magic until the 11th ball. Right spot, right steps, even threw it over the spot I wanted to. Just forget to turn the ball, and went right through the 3 pin for a washout. Someday.....

Average back up to 207.

687 decent? Geeez. Tough crowd....lol. I'd say that's quite a bit better than decent...lol

Had I gotten my head out of my arse in the first game, I'd have had a small 7. Looking at my scores for the first half, and I'm all over the map. The way this year is going, I'm calling anything over 630 decent. Bring on 2021!
