Sand Bagging...
« on: November 03, 2011, 10:32:55 AM »
Just wanted your opinion on this situation......

 

I will admit that I had a terrible season last year because of my work schedule and was never able to relax and get really into the zone of bowling and ended up with a very low avg.  I know I should have done better but I had allot of personal stuff going on and concentration wasnt good for the entire season and ended up about 30pin below my avg...  Is that consider sand bagging...

Sounds like you might should bowl a few more handicap tournaments though!

Just be sure to read the rules for any tournaments you may enter. There are certain tournaments that impose a 10 pin rule, where if you have any average (current or past) that is 10 pins higher than your book, you use that.
