I'm sorry for being late to the party here, but this brings up a good topic that rarely gets touched on here. What causes anger in the first place? 1. Frustration from things not going the way you want. 2. Lack of knowledge as to what to do to pre

Here's what I can see. 1. Keep your left hand off your left knee. This prevents your upper body from squaring up to your target and causes you to throw the ball out to the gutter like in the first shot of the extended version of your video. 2. Your

Nope can't say i have bowled there before. And yeah midway drinks the oil they oiled the lanes before we started and they were already dry lol. That's good though you use your tropical all the time i don't use mine that often so i'm not used to it

Oh well. It seems much easier for us all to have a bad week at the same time than it is for us all to have a good week together! [censored], we'd be a killer team if we could just get it together the same week. This game is so frustrating. Maybe

Bowled with the Seniors today. As usual, I use this for practice. Especially since I have refitted my arsenal to all 15# balls. Started on freshly oiled lanes with my Cell Pearl and it did well, 234. I continued with that ball, but had spare trou

I agree with you. The balls I did come to life. My shift didn't really hard in the back end and today it did. My Twisted Fury reacted harder as well. I decided to take my 2D back to 2k because at 1k it out reacted my polished cell. I used 500

another sad figure. I did not spare until the 8th frame of game 2. It was strike or open up to that point. I had 15 of 20 strikes at one point. I would chicken wing a shot, or not get enough lift on a shot here and there and really screwed myself up

Round? Did someone say drinks? OK, guys, I had to prebowl again bc I'm going away on Saturday for a week. Fortunately, I beat average 5 games out of 6...and it would have been 6 for 6 had I not left the 4-6 or variations thereof 3 times in game 4.

Mine uses an old washer motor, some pulleys and a belt from work, and a cradle with 2 sets of ball bearings on the shaft that I got from a teammate. I built the base out of leftover wood and used particle board to surround it so it doesn't make too m

This ball seems to be a good fit for me for my league. My Hy-road (pin very high cg in) is a bit jumpy after the lanes break down. I would like something a bit more predictable and less jumpy. I know layout can solve this too but I have a good amount

I practiced 10-pins before league too.. ha, wouldn't know it though... missed 4 out of 7 on the night... all four misses in the first two games. Dumb thing was, I felt really good the first two... hit the pocket 17 of 20 frames. But, with the 10-pi

I've just heard about 9-pin bowling that's played in America. ("But not Kegel 9-pin bowling.") I found some info saying that this game was banned from the United States in the 1930's. Because people were playing this game by doing gambling

Well bowled OK for the most part. Lanes dried up and I made a bad ball choice for the last game. Live and learn. Managed to win the first two points and lost the last one. Scores were 212, 202 and 173 for 587. Good luck this week.

Rocket, I wouldn't say that your system is wrong, it just needs adjusting. Try not to think of things as right and wrong. Just because your system is different than mine doesn't mean it's wrong. And like all things bowling, if it doesn't work you adj
