    Default Shot a 203 with my Columbia plastic ball 14#

    At practice yesterday i told my friend that I was going to throw my ball like I do in league warm up. Usually because I am not warmed up I throw the ball nice and easy and I get strikes. Sometimes I get three in a row. Then when the game starts I can't buy a strikes because I am warmed up and my speed is faster. To make it harder I was going to use my plastic ball. I put a 1500 surface on it. I got five strikes and four nine count spares and one six count spare and one seven count spare for a 203 game. I was hardly using any effort. I did this before with my Columbia yellow dot ball throwing it like I do in practice and bowled three high games on league night. The team we bowled couldn't believe it. A guy on the other team asked me don't you ever get tired? I said not when I throw it nice and easy. My speed when I do this is anywhere between 10.8 and 11.3. With that speed and the revs I have it works great. So for me a finesse shot works better for me then doing my faster speed and hitting it harder with the fingers and a more aggressive shot.
