The lanes get really squirrelly then.
    Sometimes I find myself making "circular" adjustments. I'll start out in one spot, move in for a while, then later move back to where I was and find the shot has come back.
    Its funny how some times it seems like there no lefties around and then all of a sudden they (we) are all over the place. Sport league last winter There were only two of us the first half and three the second half, out of 16 bowlers. Last week I stopped in to check out the summer sport league and there seemed to be one or two lefties on every pair which would put them at 25% of the league!

    I've noticed that, too. I think we only had, at best, 10% lefties in our winter league out of 30 teams. But the Wed night league seemed to have a lot lot more. We're bowling summer, too, and it seems odd who's bowling with us and who isn't. Some I thought wouldn't are and vice versa. I'll have to try and count us lefties, there's only 16 teams.

    It all depends on who you're bowling with,what equipment is used and lane surface. On my Friday league i can usually just make line and hand position changes during the first two games but then ball down for the third game. On Mondays i usually change balls each game and stay in the same general area as i play pretty deep on Mondays.
    Still love the game but had to quit because of my left leg amptation
