There was some good and bad to take out of today’s practice. I had some nice shots in my first game mechanics work, but missed a couple of 4 pins, which held my “score” down to the 190s. I was really struggling in my corner pin work, as I threw at least three attempts at the 10 in the gutter, and missing the 10 carried over into my game for score, as I left 2 10s in the game, a weak one and a ringing one, making only the ringing one. There was also a weird attempt at the 2-4-5 where I thought I had a shot that made the spare, but it only took out the 2 and the 5. I could’ve still saved a game in the 190s with a double in the 10th, but my shot in the 11th frame missed badly right, and I was left with a picket-fence type leave, which I made for a 186.
One more league night, then the tournament Sunday (assuming Sherm gets my entry this week).
