Finally . . . an honor score with lane #1
« on: March 30, 2007, 03:58:32 PM »
Well I finally did it!  I threw a 300 with a buzzsaw.  I managed it with my, always reliable, Enriched Uranium.  It came in my 5th game tonight, double header for a league make up.  It's funny because when I started the night I wasn't feeling right and came out with a 178 (hrg)then a 204(hrg) and 234 (EU).  In my second set I came out with 10 strikes with 2 opens 232(EU), I just can't seem to have a clean game anymore.  Then 300 and 206 for a 738 for my last 3 and a 1354 total.  I had almost given up throwing this ball because there never seemed to be enough head oil to keep it from leaving weak 7 pins (lefty) I would try all angles and adjustments but couldn't get it.  Tonight tho, all 12 were in the pocket, not all were buried tho.  I kept moving left or right depending on the lane to get the same reaction.  I am just so excited that I finally got to this step after switching, pretty much exclusively, to lane #1 almost 2 yrs ago.  Thank You Lane #1 and thank you Doug Sterner, definately a great product and a great fitting/drilling ta boot.

I have thrown many a 250+ with my Lane #1 stuff (over 40 250+ers with my Hybrid DB) but never could get more than 11 with 'em. My 299 Thursday came from a Thunderstruck Pearl on the left lane, 15 to 6... and a Saturn up 8 on the right!

Great game, I am still fishing for my first 300 Wish me luck!

Brunswick and Lane #1: there is no other. Well... maybe a few Storms... and a One. Did I mention Roto Grip yet?

Thanks Doug, it means a lot.  I hate to admit it but I had some doubts about my switch to lane #1, I am still posting a descent average I just wasn't putting up any huge numbers.  I'm not saying they're suppose to be the miracle balls, I just got lost in consistantcy.  IF that makes sense.  The new line of G-Forces have tweeked my interest, but I'm not sure . . . I haven't had much success with assymetrical balls.  I'm still bitter my Tsunamis never rolled well for me.  I have wanted to drill another one since I traded it to you.  Thanks again everyone, Doug I have a feeling we'll be talking soon

Thanks Buzz, this is my second one, my first was a string of good and bad strikes.  I even carried a brooklyn strike on my 11th and followed it up with a solid pocket hit.  I feel better about this one because I was in the pocket all night.  I had a few messengers and a couple light hits that just barely carried.  Also, my first one came after games of 198,148 and then a 300.  Atleast I hit 700+ with this one.  Keep plugging it'll happen.
