Series

Pure and simple, I had a new ball, and I was going to use it. It was at a shinier finish than it should have been for this pattern, so it was kind of jumpy. I moved the thumb forward to 3/8", so I had to get used to that, and I had to get used to how to adjust with the ball.

Pair: 13-14

  • 2) Reduced axis rotation
  • 4) Hit up on this frame and the next, causing both to roll out
  • 7) Way to hit your target... good effort on the spare though (seriously, that's a tough spare!).
  • 8) Finally got a good roll on it. Too bad about missing my target again, and whiffing the spare...
  • 9) Wow, a good roll and hitting your target! See what happens?
  • 11) Gave the spare a run for it.

Even frames were on 13, AKA "The lane that doesn't hook."

Pair: 7-8

  • 3) Less axis rotation. 7 fell late
  • 5) I keep falling off the shot. Also, stop missing single pins :(
  • 6) Nice shot
  • 7) I kept coming in light, so I moved right to go a little straighter and face up to the pocket. Missed right, ended up on 1 and the ball did not bounce. Finally clawed away from the gutter, moved hard, and crumbled the left side.
  • 11) *real* close to making this one. 10 pin bounced out, but went in front of the 7.

I was in the pocket all game, but couldn't get the ball to face all the way up. 2 7-10s, and one where the 7 fell late. The pins were wobbling on all of them too.
