Late posting, but Tuesday scores--
221/246/203 = 670. 4 opens on the night, and only one was a split. Missed 2 10's, and chopped a 6-10. Had a 6 pack to start game 2, but just couldn't keep the run on. Worst part was we lost 5 points last night, after still managing to be tied for 1st going in. One guy on the other team went from a 140 in game 2 to a 248 in game 3. Good Lord.....
Average stays 217.

A good night was had.
235/300/235=770. Phaze was a monster. Ran well in the first game, but whiffed a 10-pin in the 6th frame ended that. 2nd game, yeah. Was on 4 to start the 3rd, then 10/spare. I knew I needed the rest to hit 800. Nope. 9th frame, another 10-pin. Dumbassed the 10th by chopping the 8 off a 4-8 leave. I'll still take it. 2nd 300 this year, and my 4th overall. Average up to 219.

Tuesdays scores--
225/233/255 = 713. Decent night throwing the ball. Only blemishes were 2 missed 10 pins, which irritates me no end. Best part is we took 1st place for the second half, putting us in a roll off next week. Technically league is done. Finished the year with 20,224 pins (second year in a row with over 20K), and a 219.82 average, with 2 300's and I think 7 or 8 series over 700. I'm going to wallow in this for a while. I'm 56 for a few more months, and I'm not sure my body keeps up the pace. I'll go as long as I can.

What a horrible way to end the season.
165/235/203=603. We had the rolloff to determine league championship. They put us on 9/10. 3 minutes into practice, 9 broke down, not to be heard from again. They moved us to 15/16. What we found there was nothing short of a horror movie. Threw first ball on 16, shot seemed good. Moved to 15, and fired the same line. Ball went through the 6-10. Took forever to figure out how to get the ball to the pocket, and that cost us the first game. 15 more pins on my score, and we'd have won the ship. I guess if you're going to have a rolloff, you couldn't have had a more evenly matched pair of teams. 2 pins was the difference in total at the end of the night.
Hope everyone has a great summer. I'll keep posting if I hit any of the summer Tuesday Tourneys.

This is what you get when you eff around shooting all summer, and don't bowl.
182/164/21 = 561. Weekly Wednesday sport shot tourney at South Shore bowl, today on the 39' Don Carter pattern. It's a score-able pattern, if you can hit your spot, which I only did sporadically. Considering I was out of gas by about mid-second game, you can see how this went. You only get what you put in. But, no injuries, just sore as hell. Shooting state sporting clay tournament next weekend, and then I'll get down to some real practice before league starts. Getting a new ball this year. I'll let you know what I decide when I decide it.
