2014 Michigan state tournament
« on: January 14, 2014, 12:30:13 AM »
Ok, i know the first weekend just got done, But if anyone has bowled in it and wants to give their info on how they did please do so.....

I heard the first weekends scores were not that great lol.....  but as i told my buddy who runs the bowling alley where i live, what did they expect lol the pattern ratio is really low....

I am bowling Feb 8/9 doing two singles / doubles session and one team event...

Those who can't bowl, bowl with two hands.

My first trip will be March 8-9th.  Will report then. Hopefully I can remove my head from my ass before I go.

I go this weekend coming up.  I'll have many ball options from a Hyper Cell to a Red Phantom, many in between, and two just drilled old Track pieces, Freak and Freak Out.  my 203 butt gets to use a 189 tournament average!!! yay for a struggle year last year

thanks

well in doubles I started out with my 811c/t  and honestly played the shot like a house shot..  I started by standing 32 and going over 17 out to 10, and adjusting accordingly..  by the 3rd game i was standing 40 and rolling over 5th arrow out to 10..  bad part is both myself and my doubles partner probably left 50 to 75 pins out there...


come singles, I went to my 300A and moved right back to where I started with my 300A and by the 6th game was right back to standing 40 and going over 5th arrow.. 

both times in singles i just had a durrrr games lol.. first time i went 257-183-244, the second game i just didnt move quick enough..  the second time around i went 238-228-177.. the 177 game i tugged shots in the 8th and 10th frames and left splits.. which sucks cuz if i would of struck or just stayed clean, i would of had anything from a 220 to 250 game.. 

i seriously used only my 811c/t and 300a the whole weekend...

Well, lets just say I had a clean 213 2nd game of Team.  And next year my tourney average should be about 6 pins less.

well one of these years, i'll have a awesome first 9 games, and just kill everything with my 202 avg lol...  funny how i can bowl just as good if not better on a " tougher " shot , than i can on a easier shot...
