    Default What's up? The Man from Mesa

    Hey Everybody!

    I've been bowling since June of this year (09), and I've just thrown a 637 and last Sunday at league i raised my highest game ever to a 248!!!

    I am currently on the Practice squad at ASU, and went to the tourny in Vegas two weekends ago and was high average for our B-team!

    I'm looking forward to learning more about bowling as well as learning about equipment. The biggest thing i need to learn is how to read lanes, and i hope that there is info on here.

    P.S. I will try to be a good n00b and use the search function and not ask stupid, or repeated questions

    Welcome to the family And when searching for knowledge there is no such thing as a stupid question.

    One important thing that is often overlooked in reading lane condition and making adjustments is watch your ball ALL the way through the pin deck .

    First off Welcome to the best bowling boards ever!!!!
    A few weeks ago I was watching norm duke from 06 and he bowled a 300 on walter ray. I was always having a hard time reading the lanes mostly when they where dry in the mid and wet on the out side, this drove me nuts.
    So like norm duke I tryed rolling it stright up the 4 or 5 boards with a strong drilled ball but I gave it a weak release.
    OMG that ball hit the pocket hard at a 45 dig angle and the pins went side ways( Thats great for being a Stroker) So the pins went flying back and forth and swep the deck 90% of the time.
    Now I know what to do when I read the lanes anf they are very oily... Oh I rolled a 250 a 230 and a 190 doing that on that first day that I tryed it the norm duke way.

    Like you MrBill i bowled a league a few years ago that hooked in the middle and outside 10 was out of bounds. Finally gave up fighting the middle and went with a very agressive covered ball (oracle) with an early rolling drill pattern and just killed them
