278/279/278 = 835
Storm Virtual Energy (15lb)
Surface prep: 6 sides each step Abralon 360/500/1000/2000/4000 then polished with 3M Finesse II. (It''s a purdy marble

)
Layout: 5.5 X 4 (pin over bridge, MB 1/2" right of thumb. No x-hole.
39'' THS a tad on the heavy side of medium volume.
Stand left, throw right. 18 at the arrows to 8 at the break point.
All those strikes and I did not break the bank. Left a wobbling 7-pin (in the 5th frame of the last game) that had to be stood back up as it was 1/2 way over when the rack took it out. That $800 would have come in handy. That''s OK though. I am on cloud nine right now. I can''t wait to get back on the lanes tomorrow night!
Not that it matters much these days, but my first 300 was shot a couple months ago in a different house. You can call me a THS-wall-baby, but not a house-hack! LOL!
