Well a somewhat better week, finally.

After studying the video of me from last week and Using information found online and some tips from the PSO here
, I made a few corrections to my game which helped quite a bit.

We had a little better shot, there was a little more oil (I suspect the reason the oil has seemed off is the machine needs maintenance).

Another almost scratch match! we were only getting 21 pins.

First game the ball (The Dude) was like it was on a rail going to the pocket, which was good. I was matching the other teams anchor ball for ball. He went 279 to my 268. We won by 12 pins.

2nd game while not as good as the first, I don't feel bad about it. I was making good shots, just missed my spares (everyone the ball just barely missed it) We tied this game.

3rd game almost a replay of the 2nd, we lost by only 9 pins. I kind of wanted to change balls, but the dude was staying consistent so I stuck with it. We lost by 9 pins

I improved my release compared to what I have been doing. Now I didn't try to improve my speed any with the changes I made, But I kept track of it tonight and I believe I stayed pretty consistent with it. Average speed was about 13.25 mph that could be a little faster (if I can increase revs to match), but the speed didn't vary by much which was good. see chart

Mark Rate:
Strikes 54%
Spares 53%
Opens 21%

12/30/14 Tuesday Night Men's Valley League

191/259/218 668 Series 21/8/4/2 Line 206.74 Average through 57 games.

Crazy finishes tonight with me being the anchor. The lanes were ridiculously oily tonight and I had to have a bit more loft on my ball upon release and throw slower than I'm comfortable with. Game 1 I opened in the 10th and I thought I blew it for my team but come to find out we won by 2 pins. The new scoring system doesn't calculate like the old one and I'm too lazy to do the math to figure out where we are at.

Figured things out game 2 with a X 8/ XXXX 9/ XX XXX line.

Game 3 finished ridiculous as well as I had four in a row one ball into the 10th frame then left the Greek church on my 2nd ball in the 10th. Then proceeded to damn near pick it up as I carried the 7 pin and left only the 4. I look up not realizing we weren't as comfortable as I thought and we tied the 3rd game. So we go 2-0-1 (6-1) on the night and took total pins. 30-33 for the 2nd third of the season and 86-47 overall.

All in all, a solid night.

Well a most embarrassing ending to the half.

Last week I shoot my highest game of the 1st half, this week I shoot my lowest game and series of the 1st half.

Well we start over next week, so maybe I can get back on track.

Tuesday Night Men's Valley League 1/6/15

277/234/181 692 Series. 207.93 Average thru 60 games

The most excruciating snub of a seven I have experienced. I got tired game 3 and mentally broke down late. I guttered in the 8th, 2nd ball was ten in the pit so -/. 9th frame I left the dreaded
3-6-9-10 and chopped it. 63. Then in the 10th left a 6-10 and chopped the 6 as well. So terrible. Kicking it off with a 277 and tied for second high game on league just angered my teammate who proceeded to shoot the front 10 game 2 and finish with a 286. Our team took 2 of 3 and total pins so 5-2 on the night. Back to .500 for the second third of the season at 35-35 and 91-49 overall through 20 weeks.

Valley League 1/13/2015

219/246/199 664 Series with a 20/13/1/1 line. 208.57 Average thru 63 games.

Only 1 open frame on the night, I missed a 10 pin 2nd frame game 3. Our team took 2 of 3 again and totals. 96-51 on the season and 5-2 thru 1 week of the third third of the season. Had a trick shot (aka got lucky) on a 4-7-8 split in the third game. Bowling right handed I grased the 4 pin which bounced off the wall kicking the 7 just enough to fall into the 8. It was truly a "Harlem Bowl-trotters" moment.

204/181/215 600 Series and a 16/14/3/2 line. 66 game average 208.18 Third game 10th frame left a 4 pin. Looked up and realized I just needed 2 pins to win the third game but a X to beat my teammate by 1 pin for the second straight week. Buried the pocket and went 9/X. Night was a struggle and buried the pocket a handful of times leaving back end pins. 7's 9's and 10's. Still team took 2 of 3 and totals 101-53 on the season and 10-4 for the third third of the season. Will be bowling City tournament February 15th and 22nd.
