on tuesday bowled the worst i have ever bowled in my life!!
the lanes were bone dry! usually my house is oily! but not tuesday! OK so i had to start in the other lane! then throw it from gutter to gutter!

If i tried throwing my normal line i had to throw it about 22 mph for it to stay on the right side

i bowled a 365 (122, 124, 119) series when my average is a 211

what i would recommend if that happens again is just pull out your spare ball that way it won't hook off the lane like your reactive equipment will

Once again I can't seem to pull it together! I bowled 182,137,183 tonight on the Chameleon for a big 502 series. Thank god we bowl on the Scorpion next week. I think that pattern should better suit my game.

Bowled as a Pacer in the PBA league tonight. I probably shouldn't have, because I did hurt my back in the second game. But hey, it was the Shark.

Gm 1, Dynamic Power, ball was too strong going straight up 10, so I moved left 3 boards and finished with 209.
Gm 2, Virtual Gravity, hurt my back trying to get the ball out far enough to cover the late snap. Just stayed hunched over at the line for a while, until pain subsided. Bowled gingerly with poor results, with 133.
Gm 3, Terminator, had this ball refinished and had to try it. Had trouble finding a line for 180. I think the ball is back. It actually was the hardest turning ball in my bag.
Gm 4, Terminator, found something that worked and had to give it more room late in the match for 219 .

I will be in pain tomorrow. 3 Aleve did help in game 2.

Dennis,
Not to shabby on the Shark pattern. As much as I stunk it up last year, I do miss the PBA league this summer. Its my first year in three years that I hav'nt bowled on the PBA patterns during the summer. My troubles last year were more mechanical than the patterns themselves.

Hopefully you won't be suffering to much from back pain,..and you get that slide leg problem under control. Aleve....I always carry a bottle in my bag wink

I just checked on BowlSK, and it's official. I have never in recorded history (~1yr) bowled so bad on a house shot. Took the record by over 50 pins.

Trust me, you don't need to know.
