I bowled in a tournaments recently (Under 25's) and I had a really sore back, which I usually get from bowling to much but I didn't let it bother me and I never complained, but faking an injury is the low of lows, you should be ashamed of yourself...

I know I am far from a good bowler, but at least I can admit it.

I wouldn't have faked an injury. A 220 average on a house shot is WAY different that 220 on a pattern that long. Just chalk it up to experience and maybe the next time you see a pattern like that you can try something completely new to score on it.

If you screw up just say darn, I had a bad day. Everyone has them, even the best. Look at Barnes yesterday. He couldn't find his spot, instead of shifting around and trying to adjust he just kept grabbing different balls. I hate to see a man that uses Big B trying to blame a ball because he had trouble controlling his shot.
Two weeks ago, I had one of the worst nights of bowling that I have ever had. I couldn't have found the pocket if I was using a two foot wide ball. When I was leaving the owner asked me how I did. I told him the lanes were screwed up and he needed to do something about them. Then I stopped, turned around, looked him straight in the eyes, and apologized. I told him his lanes were fine, that I just had an awful night and needed something to blame. We laughed it off, shook hands, and I came back the next day and tried to fix the flaws that screwed me up.

I will ALWAYS blame myself, though. If I think the lane condition is screwy, but others are scoring and I'm not, "I didn't match up well to the lanes".
If I was just throwing the ball badly, that's what I'll say.
If I can't figure it out, I'll say that "some days I win, some days the lane man wins. Today he won".
But I don't usually blame the lanes outright - unless everyone is as puzzled and struggling as much as I am...

Just remember that some days you are the dog and other days you are the hydrant...that day you weren't the big dog
On edit...there are other events where conditions are nothing like what you might see on a THS...the Petersen comes to mind. Average is out the window in a situation like that...'course most events like that are usually scratch, so you don't have a penalty for bowling lower than average- you just have to bowl better than most of the others there in order to get a check.

Patrick, knock it off...you can mess with me all day, but not on something like this!! That was a practice session, a casual get together...and I didn't FAKE an injury! It was a Clutch "let me spin this story so it's funny" trick! Did I have to leave before everyone else was done ?? Yes, I did have to leave ,..after 6 games...prior commitment....everyone soon forgets that I was the only one there ON TIME and had 2 games in before everyone else got there, but ...."whatever"
I would never , and have NEVER done that in ANY competitive situation EVER in my life !

however,....I've bowled in 2 tournaments since Nov of 2001, both in the Spring/Summer of 2002, one at Cherry Hill Lanes in Dearborn Heights, MI, (missed qualifying by 40 pins) the other in July at MerriBowl in Livonia, MI. (came in 7th out of 94, cashed, $250). Both sanctioned under the MidStates Masters Organization, now called the American Masters Bowling Assoc.
This so called "tournament" that you are referring to was at Wonderland lanes on a weekday afternoon....one of many that took place...casual BR get togethers....
Whatever pcheeclutchjohn ............
Others can vouch for me as well, so go on with your "stir the pot"....we'll all get a kick out if it!

You say they were all laughing because you bowled so poorly, but it could also be that they were laughing because they all saw right through your little "I'm injured" charade. You went out of your way to make yourself into the laughing stock of the tournament.
Think about it. You bowl 7 frames with no apparent injury, and everyone on your pair sees that you are fine, just bowling lousy. You finished with a 96, so you probably had a score no higher than 72 through 7. Suddenly, you develop an injury and start hobbling around. Hahahahahahaha! Who did you think you were fooling? Not the people on your pair, that's for sure!
If you'd put as much effort into figuring out what to do to bowl better, as you did into your little performance, you might have managed to bowl a decent game or two.
