    Center tournament. It was an 80% handicap off 220 so my average of record was 185 so my handicap was 28. There were 45 entrants and the top 11 made the cut. I started with the Uppercut and getting around the ball. Had trouble keeping it on the left side so stayed more behind the ball and started getting consistency. Switched to the Glam for the 4th game. I ended up tied for 14th of 45 and missed the cut by 24. Cut was +123 and I was +99. I was +89 after the 3rd game so had a chance. Spare shooting killed me.

    Game 1: 180 (5 strikes, 3 spares, 3 opens-2 splits)

    Game 2: 243c (7 strikes, 4 spares)

    Start of fall league tonight but just going to keep it in this thread. Really didn't know what to expect but we had 11 teams with 5 per team. Started out with the Uppercut and was pretty good at first but then about 1/2 way through the first game it was gone so I started moving in. About 1/2 way through the 2nd game the Uppercut was just too much so tried my Squatch the rest of the game then the last game went with the Glam. My spare shooting was off again. We had a bye but got all 3 games.

    Game 1: 205 (6 strikes, 2 spares, 2 opens-2 splits)

    Game 2: 173 (4 strikes, 3 spares, 3 opens)

    Game 3: 199 (6 strikes, 3 spares, 2 opens)

    Average: 192.33

    Well tonight didn't go as planned. Started out hot but struggled with the transition. I have been working on getting more under the ball and getting more revs and the lanes are fading much quicker than I'm used to so that will take some getting used to. Seems about 3rd or 4th frame of game 2 I need to start making changes. So far I have started with the Uppercut then go to The Glam then I start flattening my hand out when the Glam is too much. All that is after I move in to get more oil. Seems like once it starts to go early in game 2 I can only get 2 or 3 frames before I need to adjust again. Tonight I started struggling in the middle of game 2. I would hit light so adjust 1/2 board and cross over the headpin. Towards the middle of game 3 I started tugging my shots. Wasted a great opportunity. Teammate pre-bowled and had a 257 3rd game but we ended up losing that game by 10 and I was 30 below my average. I think next week I'm gonna take my Rhino with me. I have hardly used that ball at all because it pretty much went straight but with my new release I think it might work pretty good late.

    Game 1: 205 (6 strikes, 3 spares, 1 open)

    Pre-bowled today and picked up my new Ignitor replacement for the cracked Glam. One of the finger inserts popped out 1/2 way through and landed down lane...lol. Left tons of 7 pins with it. Started out playing down and in around 7 board. The ball did snap back nice if I missed outside. Switched to the Uppercut late in 2nd game and moved inside but still leaving 7's. Eventually moved outside with the Uppercut and flattened my hand. That was better but still not great.

    Game 1: 181 (6 strikes, 2 spares, 3 opens)

    Pre-bowled again today since the Texas trip was postponed a week. Used the Uppercut the first 1.7 games then finished with the Igniter. With the Igniter I targeted the 10 board the whole time with it. The other day I put the Igniter on the spinner and took it down to 500 then 1000, 2000, then 3000. Probably could have skipped all that and went straight to 3000 but wanted to knock that factory finish off. The Igniter worked perfect. Well, except I had another insert go flying down lane...lol. PSO glued it back in and all was fine. Game 3 with it threw 7 pocket strikes, a pocket 6, and 3 other 9/spares for a clean 228.
    Now let's talk about the Uppercut. Decided to try to hook the lane since I worked on my revs and release recently. Stood with right toe in line with the right gutter lip (1 board pretty much), targeted the 17 board (just left of the middle arrow) and the breakpoint was about the 12 board. Hit the pocket a couple of times but was inconsistent with it. But I really liked the pin action when I hit the pocket. Definitely something I will work on and use if I need to. With my old release the ball would go straight to the 4-7. I threw this way the last few frames of game 1 and the first few in game 2.

    Game 1: 190 (3 strikes, 7 spares, 1 open)

    Interesting night. Game 1 I just couldn't find the line. Used the Uppercut and tried the 10 board. Tried hooking the lane but the ball wouldn't come back. Tried it with the Conspiracy and still no good. 2nd game finally started hitting the pocket. Moved back left a little and picked up my speed a little. Used the Igniter in game 3 and straightened my angles a little going up the 10 board.

    Game 1: 164 (4 strikes, 3 spares, 3 opens-2 splits)

    Game 2: 215 (7 strikes, 3 spares, 2 opens-1 split)

    Night started out good. Started with the Uppercut and struggled in warm ups and the first few frames of game 1. About 4th frame or so I finally found my line. Targeted the 2nd arrow and stayed with that until early in game 3 when it started going away. First couple frames of game 3 it started biting too soon so I knew I either needed to move in or ball down. Decided to ball down since the Igniter has been working really good for me. Igniter wouldn't hook at all at the 2nd arrow. Moved out to the dry around the 6 or 7 board and that started working. Problem was it was too late to salvage a good game so really hurt a very good night. Still good overall though. In the end I should have either balled down earlier or stuck with the Uppercut and moved in. We bowled the PSO's team and lost the first 2 games.

    Game 1: 232 (8 strikes, 2 spares, 2 opens-1 split)

    Spare shooting got me again. My spare hooting had been really good until tonight. Good thing I was able to throw 22 strikes...lol. We were on 39-40 at the end and the transition seemed to hit pretty quick and more extreme than usual. Started with the Uppercut until about the 7th frame of game 2. I was targeting the 10 board but near the end of game 1 had started moving in. Near the end of game 2 I switched to the Igniter but it wasn't coming in. Moved out to the 7 board but I was coming in too high so picked up a little speed and that fixed it. Threw 10 strikes in game 3.
