Valley League 2/3/15

258/244/288 790 Series (PR). Breaking my personal best series ever by 37 pins. 3rd game had the front 10 and then came in high on ball 11 leaving the 6 and then failed to convert. If I had one more strike I would have shot an 800 but I didn't know it until after. 25/6/1/0 line. Things are getting ridiculous. City Tournament in 2 weeks. 210.72 average thru 24 weeks (72 games)

212/218/217 647 Series. 18/12/2/1 Line. Had XXXX in a row going into the 10th game 3, then went 9- with a missed 10 pin. Otherwise would have been closer to another 7. Leaving flat 10 pins and back end pins all night. 4/5 on 10 pin conversions. 210.92 Average thru 75 games (25 weeks)

week 24

Well a somewhat better improvement, finally got back to a 600 and got my SBR up.

Only 5 opens tonight
Started out with the Beatdown and then switched to the Dude toward the end of the second game.

Changed surfacing went with P500/P800/1500 with polish, went old school a used paper (except for the 500 used a pad.) . I'm going to stick with paper for a bit, I liked the look of the texture better. Plus the reaction was a bit smoother looking.

2/15/15

City Tournament Division II Team Event 235/191/190 616 Series.

Midway Game 2- Flat 10,Flat 10,Ringing 10, and finally solid 8 on my best ball of the series. 2 missed 10 pins games 1 and 2. Then Game 3 began experimenting with loft and it was X or Split until the 8th frame. Had to XXXX out to shoot 190.

Luckily my book average was from last season (201) so I shot over my average as did everyone on our team. We should place somewhere in the top 5 hopefully. Also gained entry to a raffle for a new bowling ball.

Valley League 2/17/2015

248/212/199 659 Series 23/10/2/2 Line. No 10 pins on the night for the first time in forever. Most brutal frame was opening in the 9th game 2. Also had a chance to end game 3 with a five bagger but deja vu from Sunday as one of my best balls of the night left the stone 8 pin. Could have been better but a solid night. We only took game 3 though and have fallen off these last 2 weeks going 2-12.
211.26 Average thru 26 weeks (78 games)

2/22/15

City Tournament Doubles 203/206/268 677 Series
As far as I know we tied for 3rd place as my teammate shot 667. Finished Game 3 with XXXXXXX in a row.
City Tournament Singles 202/199/197 598 Series
Game 3 I had 49 in the 5th frame and finished with XXXXXX8. If I would have struck out I would have shot 600 even. Not a great performance. My left knee is killing me. Get to go back Tuesday night for 3 more.

225/209/213 647 Series. 17/14/2/1 line. Began the night with an open frame and ended the night with a 4-6 split. Everything in between was clean. Couldn't go on any runs and nothing more than XXX in a row all night as I struggled with my release point. Still we took 2 of 3 and total pins 26-23 for the third third of the season and 117-72 overall on the season.

Valley League 3/10/15

203/298/192 693 Series 19/11/4/0 Line
Game 2 line XXXXXXXXXXX8
Came in high on the 12th ball even though in my head I'm repeating "Keep the speed up" over and over again. I think it would be better if everyone kept bowling instead of the entire bowling alley going dead silent. My fault though, I have to learn to mentally dominate. Each time I put myself in these situations the pressure is less.
The gouge in my ball was buffed out as best it could but they have to keep it another week to seal the rest of it. It actually worked out because I threw it tonight and it was cleaned and buffed down to it's original state and in practice it was so much more aggressive I thought I was in for difficult night. It worked out and I was carrying nicely game 2. In fact all eleven in a row were flush. No luck strikes or breaks. 211.17 Average thru 29 weeks (87 games).

My teammate said there is a plaque for 11 in a row. Can anyone confirm this? I haven't asked about it.

There's no longer a national USBC award for 11 in a row. It's possible your local association may give one, you would have to check with them.

Thanks for the info Litefrozen.

Valley League 3/17/15
Tonight I found out that they discontinued the 11 in a row plaque. In fact the only awards the USBC give out anymore is rings for 300's and 800's. I was bummed out but then I stated "I guess they do that for motivation" Then I proceeded to throw the front 10 game 1. With 10 in a row I turn around and declare "What are you doing? stop watching me and bowl." Hah. Then the 11th throw was even worse off my hand than the one last week after the front 11. So pissed I blurted out in disgust the moment the ball left my hand. Game 1 Line XXXXXXXXXX7/ Started the 2nd game strong and a glimpse of 800 flashed through my mind which wasn't a good thing. Then I went 9- in the 10th frame of the 2nd game after leaving a pocket 7 pin and then not converting losing it for our team by a few pins. Missed a 10 pin in frame 6, but still bounced back game 3 and we took went 5-2 winning 2 games and total pins. Ending the regular season at 131-79 which is a PR for our team. I don't know if a Valley League team has cracked the 130 point mark before. We did. Anyway here's the final line before playoffs next week:
287/226/236 749 Series 25/5/2/0 line. Also ending the season and obliterating my previous average PR. 19,121 total pinfall through 90 games (30 weeks) and a 212.46 average.
Brunswick Aura Paranormal best purchase ever. It is house oil however. I don't know if you guys bowl on different oil patterns or not.
