Another cooda, wooda, shooda night....

235/224/187 = 646. 4 opens on the night (Greek church, 4-6-10, chopped 6-10, and whiffed a 7) just kills things dead. Stem to stern with the Helios this time, which was on kill as long as I hit my marks. Unfortunately, with the exception of a stone 8, every mistake was operator error. Did make all my 10's again (4), which puts me about 87% on the year. Gotta get rid of the mistakes. Average yep, still 211.

Good night, but sure didn't look like it was going that way to start.

213/267/213 = 693. Frame 1, chopped 3 off a bucket. Frame 3, missed a 7 pin. Managed to get the wheels back on by closing that game with 5 straight. Game 2 was just on it. Game 3 was a bit more of a struggle, with strikes just not coming easy. And then I blew up the 10th by chopping a 6-10. Really nice night marred by terrible spare shooting at shots I just shouldn't be missing. On a high note, left only 1 10-pin the entire night. I'm starting to see a trend with chopping 6-10's, and I don't like it. This is 3 times in as many weeks. Need to clean it up. Average finally scoots up 1 to 212.

Ah, the legendary 15/16 at Lucky....

231/207/212 = 650. I've had worse nights on this pair, but a half-way decent night does not endear them to me. After only leaving a 10 pin once in each of the last two weeks, left 6 tonight (missed 2). I hate this pair. Only other open was a monster of a 4-6-7-9 in game one. I hate this pair. Could not make sense of the leaves. One shot destroys everything, then hit the identical shot 2 frames later, and a weak 10. I hate this pair. 3 more weeks of league left, and I can't wait to move on the sporting clays. Average still 212.

Did I mention I hate this pair?

Didn't do half bad given your apparent dislike for the pair.

Not even a dislike. Utter hatred. I am not alone in this feeling, either. Don't get me wrong, I've popped a 700 on it. Once.....

Lanes 15/16, again. These bas*ards keep coming up with new tricks.

180/172/201 = 553. I left almost as many 10-pins (8) as I had strikes (10). I hit the pocket 29 out of 30 frames, and the only one that didn't was a strike. High series for either team was a 577. I had 3 pocket splits in the first game alone (7-10, 7-10, and 8-10). One of my teammates had 4 in the second game, and also left 11 10-pins. Didn't keep track, but pretty sure there were 12-15 pocket splits between the 2 teams. I'm not sure what takes place from week to week there, but I wouldn't use "consistency" to describe it. Hilarious part was the league secretary asked us during the 3rd game if we were coming back next year. Both teams said probably not. As it stands, they look to be losing 5 of the 8 teams. Pretty sure that's not an effective way to run a business. Average slides right back to 211.

Damm. Thats brutal.

Not exactly how I wanted to finish the season.

156/234/223 = 613. First game was a nightmare. Started with a strike, which ended up being the only one of the game. Chopped a 2-5, and completely missed a 10 and a 6-10. Completely missed on where I should've started. Pulled it together for the next 2, but damage done.

Really not happy with this season. High game of 288, high series of 736 are not what I expect of myself. Finished the season with a total of 19635, first time in 3 or 4 seasons I missed the 20K mark. Season average of 211 is also 4 or 5 off the mark. Say what I will about the new house, end of the day it's on me to do better. The season total of 169 10 pins is insane, though. Left 6 last night. Made 144 of them, which can also be better. Sweeper next week. Shooting season is already underway, so I've got that, which is good.
