Out of curiosity I checked my strike %. So far this season after 33 games I'm averaging 15.8 strikes a night (174 in 11 weeks). In the last 8 weeks I'm averaging 16.8 a night (135 in 8 weeks). That is also including my 5 strike night a few weeks ago. Now if I could cover my spares I'd have a pretty good average. My average over the last 6 weeks is 196.00. My strike % is 52% in that 6 weeks but my single pin spare % is only 57%. Oddly my multi pin spare % is better at 61%.
Really need to work on my spares. Entered tournament this Sunday so will see how it goes. Entrees are capped at 160 and the top 10 make the cut. A few months ago I entered a similar one and was 14th after the 4 game cut. Missed the top 10 by 24. It's 80% of 220 tourney so I figure I need to average about 210 a game to make the cut. Last tourney 10th was 923 and first was 1029. These are with handicap 4 games. No idea what the final round scores were cause I left. My average of record will be 188 so I will get 100 pins handicap so at least 206ish average based on that. Definitely doable if I make my spares
