It's just circumstance of when you bowl.  No different than someone that goes later in the tournament that can use a ball that is released after some have already bowled.   

 Yeah, guess you've got a good point there, and I'm not really carping about it as much as it might seem. I know I'm not the bowler I was just a few years ago (father time takes his toll), and couldn't really hope to compete with the really good guys anymore, just hadn't put it into perspective fully I suppose.

 Thanks for the insight. Having someone hand you your perspective back helps.
