Been in a small slump.....
« on: January 21, 2010, 12:54:11 PM »
the past 2 weeks, not bad but had that 230 reaction and just couldn't kick the corners out consistently. So I pulled out 2 of my old faves (Red Zone and Swarm) and shot 783, 751 and 744 in three different houses this week. Nothing huge but its better than the 680s I been shooting.

I agree, you will never see another score posted from me. I didn't mean to hurt anyones feelings, how insensitive of me.

John,

I'm glad you're bowling well, and with a couple of balls that I personally like a bunch, too.

My son inherited my Swarm and he's never had a bad outing with it. We drilled it Rico and the ball is the most predictable pearl in his whole collection.

Sorry for my first comment. But I'm usually pretty content with 680s when I consider how many things can (and sometimes do) go wrong in three games.

Keep up the good scoring!

Actually I was trying to give you some props in the beginning.  Like I said, I doubt very few of us can relate to 680-700 being a bad night.  If you seriously thought I was "jumping down your throat" you're way to sensitive to be posting on any internet board.  We get tons of people that think they're God's gift to bowling only to find out later that they're full of beans.  You seem to be legit, so more power to you.  But at the same time, it wasn't a technical change that got you back in the groove, merely a ball change.  I personally would be more impressed if you found a minor tweak in your swing or release that got your ball to carry better.

There is no need to apologize you are 1 of the few that contribute good info to this forum. My problem is that I am never content with anything. There is always room for improvement on my part.

On another note yes those balls are both great, the red zone is probably the best ball I have ever had it has made me alot of money. I need to pick up another before they disappear. My swarm is 70*5 1/2*70 pin down and is great later in a block when I need to get left of 20, very controllable yet strong of the spot.
