Before I get into how tonight went, I must say that this is the biggest league I've ever bowled in. It has 38 teams and bowls in a 40 lane house and the 50\50 pot brought in over $700, which means the winner brought home over $350.
With that put aside, I must say that I bowled pretty well tonight. I pulled the first ball, sending it through the nose and leaving a split. I quickly learned my mistake and finished out with a 245. The line didn't go anywhere even though I was expecting it to dry up fairly quickly by watching the other people on my pair.
The 2nd game was filled with single pins. I left 3 ten pins and 1 seven pin, and missed one of the ten pins. Again, the line didn't go anywhere. I put a bit more speed on the ball in the 2nd through 4th frame because i thought it was simply going to hook more. That didn't happen until the 3rd game.
The ball went a little high a few times, leaving some 4 pins and leaving a split in the 7th frame and scraping the 6 pin.
I ended up with a 695 series, giving me a 231.6 average for 3 games and working with a 216 book average. I was setting average in that league, so the 231.6 average will be my official average. It will not, however, be a USBC book average because a bowler must bowl 21 games in a league for it to become a book average.
