Friday Night League - 533 Series

Wow, Crappy. thats all i have to say. I really dont know what happened. I think 2 things are happening here. 

1: I am still throwing it super hard. Why? I kept trying to slow my shot down but couldnt. WTF? Everytime I went up there I would throw it hard. ARRGGGHHH

2: The fact that my ball isnt reacting is really getting into my head. Add to that my new found speed on the ball and that takes any reaction out of it. 

I did talk to the guy in th pro shop (the one who knows what hes doing in my opinion) and he told me that if you polish the ball a lot with silicon based polish, it eventually fills in the pores of the ball. Then the ball loses all reaction. Sound familiar?

First game - 170

Sigh. I couldnt carry anything, and i was missing stupid spares. I was throwing the virtual gravity, it was not moving. It was at this point I went into the pro shop and talked to the guy about it. He ended up resurfacing it for about 5 minutes to 2000 grit. Came back out and got some good reaction from it but damit i was still throwing it hard.

Second game - 159

Missed two 10 pins this game. And, to this point, i only had one strike in the last game, and this game i got 1. just couldnt carry ANYTHING

Third game - 204

During the second game, i had just given up on the whole night so i decided to get drunk instead. What a difference that made. Slowed my ball down, i started carrying, and i was getting strikes. Of course I missed some stupid spares but what ever. 

I am going to practice tonight since i missed yesterdays practice. If i dont bowl a 600 or better(and that sounds sad), i am going to freak out.
