Boatmans 2023-2024 scores

Nah - fill frames don't count for clean games.

Nice grinding on games 1 and 2 - way to stick with it!

Depends who you’re talking to. When my sport league had a 40 clean pot, back when we bowled 4 games, moving pairs after every game, if you struck in the tenth on the first ball but not the second you had to make the spare to have a clean game. After going several years with no one winning, they rolled the accumulated money into the regular prize fund.

End of season tournament tonight. First game was tough. I was 4/4 in warm ups and that is usually a bad sign...lol. Started with the Pi and it was good the first 2 frames or so but started dying so switched to the Xponent. Kept leaving 7 pins. Kept moving in but no change. Moved back a little, no change. Moved further outside and changed hand position a little and that helped. Finished the night with the Xponent. Spare shooting was pretty good except 2 missed 6 pins that I should have never missed.
First game I was the only one on the team to hit their average. Ended with 1024 with handicap. Not good at all. I was considering asking the team if they just wanted to take last place and quit for the night but we soldiered on. Game 2 I was the only one that didn't hit their average. Game 3 I think all of us hit our average. Games 2 and 3 we rolled 1234 and 1256. Ended up 3rd out of 13 teams.

Game 1: 206 (5 strikes, 5 spares, 1 open)

Game 2: 184 (4 strikes, 5 spares, 2 opens)

Game 3: 224 (8 strikes, 1 spare, 2 opens)

8 7-pins and only 2 missed? that's not bad - way better than I'm doing with my 10s right now. . .

Yeah I have been working on that. Last night I went through my PinPal stats and for the month of April I bowled 26 games. I made 78% of my 7 pins (26/33). Much better than I was last year
