So how did it go?

Saw you were on the feature pair first game, but was headed out the door and couldn’t watch.

It, for my first SYC, and first seven game format tournament, went okay, I didn't fully execute but it was a good learning experience, went -325 for the day, really hoping to do better tomorrow because I know I can.

So what 5 balls did you bring with you?  How are the conditions, and what did you use starting out/ transition/breakdown?

What part of the lane did you play based on what you brought/ how you played the lane with said ball?

I ended up bringing my Phaze II, Idol, Hy-Road, Pitch Black, and Ride, and drilling my PhysiX there. On both patterns I started fairly direct, but transition started very quickly both days. I ended up using the same three balls in the same order both patterns, the PhysiX, then Hy-Road, then Phaze II. On the long pattern, to start, there were people throwing to the right of me with urethane so if I missed out it was skidding 60 feet, then at the end, there was nothing in the heads, and barely any in the midlane so I was lofting the gutter to get any length. the medium pattern was a bit less drastic in its breakdown, so I only ended up on swinging 35 to about 15 at the end of the day.

Who was having success? What were they doing?
