nothing that a few extra frames of recreational bowling can't cure. just a little slump right now-that's all.

I plopped a 124 in between a 236 and 214. No opens on both 200 hundreds. Transition kicked my ass the second game! You understand transition right?

The oil pattern breaks down alot quicker. The head oil which is the oil from the foul line to the arrows depletes quicker with high rev players as apposed to low rev players like myself (speed dominant) who rely on the shot not breaking down so quick. We speed dominant guys are screwed because those with more revs can hold the line better. We have to change hand position or ball down and then it's still a guess.

Went bowling Saturday.

Bowled my best game ever. 157. Had a turkey in rounds 4-5-6 and finished the 10th with 3 strikes.

My next game? 98.

Probably should have grabbed a lighter ball. 16 pounder took a lot out of my wrist.

You don't, you get five guys and just bowl as long as they have over 9 games bowled in league play.

Up and down. Our oiling machine got the pads replaced about a month ago since they hadn't been replaced for 7-8 years and they should've been replaced every 3 years. To much shit going on with management of the center this year. A fucking clusterfuck.

721 series tonight. First game had the front 9, first time taking a potential 300 into the 10th frame, fucked it up by leaving a wash out, 264. Second game a pedestrian 214 and 3rd game started with the front 6 ended up with 243. Old man still has game. Leave for Vegas in a week and a half for the National tournament at Southpoint.
