Got a little split happy. Extremely poor execution doesn't even begin to cut it. I just sucked.

Good luck to Maine Man in the next round.
Thanks LFALW, and nice set. 683 isn't anything to sneeze at my friend.

Thanks, much appreciated.

While 683 is a decent set, I made too many mental errors and should have scored higher:

1. 2 missed 7 pins.
2. Reacting too late to transition and leaving a 6-7-10.
3. Choosing the wrong adjustment and lost carry - moving 2 and 1 and opening up a little bit instead of balling down.

I only bowl once a week so both my physical game and mental game are not that sharp. I need to work on my game and by that I mean actually bowling...

Good luck in the next round.

754 last night, lost a little bit of pin carry game three, went 269, 257, 228. I think I chased it too far in instead of balling down and staying further outside. The Brunswick Fanatic SS (50* x 5.5" x 30*) was the ball of choice last night, so glad I took the surface to 1500 w/royal factory compound. Box finish was way too strong in the mids for what I have been seeing around here, even on some of the flatter patterns. Hopefully my good bowling the past month will translate to a big tournament I have in Keene, NH this weekend. Good luck to those remaining in this round!

Eric,

There is a good chance my league will cancel tonight due to inclement weather. Will I be able to just use next week's scores for submission if that happens? Let me know, thank you!
