There are also times I am totally lost as to where to play, then I go on a fishing expedition. I try different lines and different equipment. My hope is to find something that will get me through the night without hurting my team too much.
Practice is a time for working on weaknesses in my game and experimenting.

In leagues and tournaments every shot is important to me. Whatever I leave I am to pick up, or get the best count possible to aid the team and myself.

goes with me every week. He actually sits there
and watches us bowl. So for me to not try my best
on every shot would be showing my son the wrong
way to go about life. I always try my best for
me and to show my son that no matter how bad your
doing, to try your best all the time.

It really depends on the situation. Bear in mind, my objective is to win the game. Let's say we're in the 8-9-10th frame, match is close, and I've lost my carry. In a tight match, I usually do not change balls or try a different line to get the carry back. I'd rather have the makeable spare than take a chance on leaving a split or washout and hand the game over to the other team.
On the other hand, being anchor, if the game is already won or is out of reach, I will use the 10th frame to try and find something for the next game.

I can only recall one time where I really had an "I-don't-care" attitude. On my Monday league last year we were put on a pair of lanes where the lane machine had had 'issues'. One lane was flooded with no back end. The other was fairly normal. We shot a game and 2 grames before the lane broke down and we had to move. The pair we were moved to was a buffer pair that had not been conditioned since that morning. (The break down pair had already been taken by another 2 teams whose lanes had broken down before ours.) We're talking no shot at all. The high series on that night four our 10 bowlers was in the neighborhood of 520's. I personally shot a 460. Suffice it to say that near the end of game 3, I was just slinging shots with a plastic ball. But I was still looking for a shot to the hole.
There's also the night that I had a stomach flu. I put everything I had into every shot that night. The best I could muster was a 590, but that was not due to a lack of effort. Immediately after the 10th frame of gme 3, I changed shoes and reported to the men's room where I vacated my bowels.
Not bowling your best under most circumstances is a reprehensible act by low-class bowlers.
