Has anyone ever done this before???
« on: October 30, 2003, 09:37:20 PM »
I'm averaging 209 in my Thursday night league. I have NOT shot 600 yet this season in that league. We just completed the 9th week, and in that time,
I have shot an 811 series, a 761 series, and last night, a 738. Other than that, I think my high series is around 585. I don't get it - I don't understand why I can't shoot 600 in that league. On Wednesday night - same house, I'm bowling mediocre, but I can, and do shoot 600 regularly...
 
It's really weird...

Wow.  I can't say I've ever done that, it sounds pretty interesting.  Usually I'll just 600 every league to death.  Rarely shoot 5, occasionally shoot 7 (although I haven't yet this year).  Hey, I'd say that 811 makes everything ok though, lol.  I've got a buddy that's kind of doing that though, kind of.  I bowl with him on Wednesday nights, and he finally missed 700 for the first week in the last 5 or 6, but it was a 696.  On Thursday nights, he usually shoots 580-something.  He can't figure it out, but I'm just glad I bowl with him on Wednesdays, lol.  Keep plugging away, you'll get it.  Or maybe you'll just get rid of the 500's altogether and keep shooting 7's and 8's.  Go for it!

I'm BETTER than you because . .

1) I've met the DNL leprechaun
2) I get paid to watch tv.
3) My dad's friend's brother knows Chris Barnes' stepdad.  
4) Kristi's my buuuuuddy
5) I get to witness a man with the speed and revs of Robert Smith combined with the accuracy of the guards in the lobby scene of the Matrix average 240
6) I can throw a better fit over nothing than you can.

I never had the disparity that you've accomplished, but I have shot low 7's and high 5's for about 6-7 weeks before throwing a 600.  Like Hammy said, I'll take an 800 anyday.  The only problem with the roller coaster scoring is that you tend to win or lose all the team points.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not complaining... I'm just confused.
