My Week 16 bowling, frame-by-frame (Linked to BowlSK sheet)

It was another night of bad shots and frustrating carry when I did hit the pocket. The difference from Sunday night was that I was at least making my 10 pin, though carrydown from the open bowlers before us made the left side tricky.

Result: 156-148-172=476
Average (48 games): 167
Average for last 9 games: 163
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 549

Composite average (90 games): 168

I had the best night on the pair, but Si actually bowled better than me third game, which we won by enough for total after losing the first two by a combined 74 pins.

After winning four points from 4 BAGA, Seven Deadly Pins stand in 19th, 25 points behind the lead held by Lost Empire 2, who are 9.5 points ahead of Creeden’s Mustangs. Team 14 is in 3rd, 10 points behind the lead. Striking Gentlemen are tomorrow night’s opponents.

Furious Five did win the five points from VEGBAGS needed to win the league championship outright, while Team 8 won all seven to overtake VEGBAGS for second place. 🙂

Individually, Fin09 of Sphere Chuckers had the high average for the league with a 238, and Chuck of Team 8 submitted a 299 game in the last week.

Tonight was rather frustrating, punctuated by my inability to make my 10 pin. I had no more than a double at any time, and only two strikes total in the third game.

Result: 167-170-151=488
Average (42 games): 170
Average for last 9 games: 171
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 534

Composite average (87 games): 169

The team night went pretty much the same as the first time against this opponent: Won the first game, then got killed in the other two for total.

The tie for 5th a point behind us had one of the teams win all eight, so we ended up in 5th place, with the team that was in 6th position leapfrogging us for 4th. The first place team, Macs, won all eight and the first half.

I wasn’t carrying much tonight, and missing three 10 pins didn’t really help, as I generally paid for my bad shots, too.

Result: 148-178-161=487
Average (45 games): 167
Average for last 9 games: 159
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 521

Composite average (84 games): 169

The entire opposing team pre-bowled, and we won all four, thanks to all of my teammates being over average for the night.

EDIT: I forgot to check the brackets for the results from last week, but Shawn did give me $2 back for that week, meaning I finished 2nd in one of them.

After winning a point from Sweet Rolls, Seven Deadly Pins stand in 19th place, a point and a half ahead of Bi-Polar Bowlers and 25 points behind Lost Empire 2, who are nine points ahead of Team 14. 4 BAGA will be the opposition tomorrow night.

EDIT: Meant to also mention that this week is the league’s annual, “Christmas Bowl”, which, like the “Turkey Bowl” before it, gives a prize to the bowler in each average division with the most pins over average for the night.

After winning two points from Pinknockers, Pin Pals are in 4th place, 11 points behind Macs, who are two points ahead of High Rollers and five points ahead of Where Is B?, who are our opponents Sunday night, as Sunday night will be the last position round of the first half.

Furious Five won all seven from VEGBAGS, and we can now win the league outright with five points from them this week; the potential exists for a three-way tie if we win four and Team 8 wins all seven.

Individually, Fin09 of Sphere Chuckers made his first entry into our 290-299 honor score category last week with a 299 game.

My Week 14 bowling, frame-by-frame

The night started promisingly enough, but the lanes became very squirrely for both myself and Lee and both of us ended up having “off” nights.

Result: 177-171-139=487
Average (39 games): 171
Average for last 9 games: 162
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 551

Composite average (81 games): 169

Team won the first game, but that was it. We ended up losing the third game by an even 100 pins.

Although I didn’t put anything together until the end of the night, my spare shooting mostly held me in good stead, missing my only single pin in the third game and converting a couple of the easier splits. It was good enough for my +1 on the button.

Result: 172-167-170
Average (42 games): 168
Average for last 9 games: 155
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 549

Composite average (78 games): 169

For our opponents, Shawn, and Harry Thibeault, subbing for Kris Higgins, had good nights, but Si bowled a 201 third game to help us win our one point.

After winning six points from The 3 Stooges, Pin Pals stand in 4th place, 11 points behind Macs, who lead High Rollers by two points and Where is B? by eight points. Pinknockers will be the opponents Sunday night.

Both Lee and I made the high score list for the week, but Lee’s was neither high game or series for the week.

After failing to win points from SR Spares, Seven Deadly Pins stands in 19th, only a half point ahead of Bi Polar Bowlers, and 22 points behind Lost Empire 2, who lead Team 14 by five points. Our opponents tomorrow night will be Sweet Rolls.

Furious Five won only two points from Team 8, but the leaders, VEGBAGS, only won four points, so we’re still within eight points “hailing distance” with two weeks left. Team 8 is nine points off of the lead in third.

My Week 13 bowling, frame-by-frame

After struggling to break 400 in this league last week, this was a big rebound night, keyed by my five-bagger in the middle of the third game, the middle three of which were the best shots I’ve thrown in a while.

Result: 199-150-223=572
Average (36 games): 171
Average for last 9 games: 168
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 522

Composite average (75 games): 169

Team won the third game easily after splitting two close games. Lee had another mid-six-ish night, with his 245 joining my 223 in the third game.

Well, I’m officially in a slump, as I haven’t been over 500 since before Thanksgiving, and struggled again tonight. This time, I had the right ball in my hand from the outset, but couldn’t do anything with it. If I had at least been leaving single pins, I wouldn’t have minded tonight as much, but I only had two of those, and only seven strikes on the night, two of which were on strikes.

Result: 157-124-162=443
Average (39 games): 167
Average for last 9 games: 157
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 509

Composite average (72 games): 168

Si had the best resemblance of us of a good night, but the team didn’t win points.

Junior has decided on the 2007 Weber Cup Day 3 pattern as the 2nd third pattern for the Coke league. It is a 41′ pattern with a 5:1 ratio, with the top graph linked above.
