    Not really sure they dried up. Seemed like there was a decent shot when I hit my mark. I just couldn't find my a** with both hands. A LOT of tugs.

    Crap night, thanks to dislocating my pinky at work. No sub available, so I went anyway.

    186 185 181 = 552. Was limited all night. Couldn't get much turn on the ball, and since they were super oily to start, that didn't go well. When they did finally dry up a bit, I couldn't get any speed on the ball. Some days you should just stay home. 216 average.

    Weirdest. Night. Ever......

    192/226/203 = 621. 10 guys across two lanes. 42 10-pin leaves. 9 of them were mine. Of the 42, probably 3/4 of them on the right lane. No one was untouched in this. I tried every dirty trick I knew, but they just kept coming. Has to be someothing just a little off with the pin setter. I get it if it was just me, but not when everyone is in it. The manager was dead quiet on this one, and he's not the silent type....

    lol. Last night I left (3) 2-7 splits and 3 4-7-10 splits. Not sure I have left that many all year. I left 7 splits total last night. Usually only leave 1 or 2. Ended up using my spare ball in game 3 just to stay on the left side of the head pin

    Officially mired in mediocrity.

    204/164/226 = 594. Back on my favorite pair, 3 & 4. What started with the SureLock not being able to get enough bite to finish (4 10-pins in the 1st game) ended up balling down to the Nano before the 3rd game started. I'm at a loss as to why I can't seem to adjust out of the box, and it's starting to get aggravating. Longest string on the night was 4. Unacceptable. Average stays 215. If this keeps up, not for long.....

    I hear ya. I've been on a slow steady drop for the last couple of months, just behind on transition and feeling lost. Keep at it, all we can do!

    Some signs of life at the ol' Arcade.

    238/193/215 = 646

    First time I've been close to average in a number of weeks. Only two opens on the night, both splits that I definitely earned. Still too many damn 10 pins (6 total), but made them all. I think the SureLock might be starting to show it's age. The Phaze III really looks nice...

    Average stays 215.

    Better night.

    193/256/223 = 672. First game would've been inline with the other two, but got a little grabby with the ball in 8 and 9, and blew both shots through the nose. Only two opens on the night. Better news was this was the first time in 5 or 6 weeks I took all three points from my opponent. Team took 24 of 30 as well. Average stays 215.
