Monster Pike will be there w/my league team.  Ever since the last 300 bowled at these lanes, I've never seen it more oiled than it's been the last 4 or 5 weeks or so, even into the 3rd game.

I bowled last week and thought was shot was ok.  I played a tight inside line I didn't want to get the ball outside 10 at anytime.  It was tough but reasonable I thought.

Last night after spraying it all over the place the 1st 2 games, I was able to find a real nice inside line also.  Shot a 256 w/a couple brooklyns, but in the 11th frame I buried a dead flush pocket hit & left a 9 pin.

You should be ready then,  No  problem you only have to get a 9 count.

I shot 680 with a 170 game, I wasn't aware there is no practice. No it isn't oiled all the way to pins, I played about 24 to 14 with a shiny Mystic. Outside of 10 was a wasteland, even for the heavy-handed.

I had good luck with my sidewinder and fury,  I changed to my vapor but had to much backend.  Stay away from 10 smoother reacting balls are the way to go I feel.  No practice was different but thats what makes it interesting.  I would like to meet everyone where could we all meet?

I think I was two pair over from you. Your Sidewinder prompted me to switch to my Mystic.

Last week I started on 15-16 and 9-10 I didn't see to many people with the sidewinder.  The second set I wish I would have had a sidewinder pin up not pin down.  I'll most likely start with my sidewinder tomorrow or shift.  Hopefulley we can all meet I'll most likely be in front of the bar before bowling begins.

Bar was closed when I got there.  Didn't open til after we started.  I pretty much stunk it up.  Oh well.  Started on lanes 25 & 26.

It was a alot tougher this weekend compared to last weekend.  I didn't like the idea how guys were practicing on lanes before everyone started.  Screwed me up for the secong set.  Either way the wife shot 719 hopefully she'll cash and well see how long my 768 holds up.

We were stuck on the end, so we had to break in the lanes with all of our games.  Lanes 27 & 28 gave us the toughest time.  I had a bunch of splits on that pair combined w/missing an easy spare.  I only shot 130 something on it.  Maybe I should have played the 2:30 slot, LOL!!  We had fun any way.
