first time on viper last sunday, didnt bowl good enough but just to share some personal point of views


in warm up the major issue wasnt to find the pocket, i could swing a little or go dead straight. practiced my spares specially my arch enemy 10 pin, after few gutter with my spare ball, 10 was ok, few shots to the 7 pin and the patter looked tight.

the only thing that came to mind was making good shots and stay in the pocket, which i did, but i have to admit, carry sucked, after becoming better spare shoter on this pattern, all i did was stay tuned.

after 6 games, the shot really broke down, straight line wont work since it will start hooking half way down. this is the moment i regret not bringing a pearl or any kind to this shot, i thought i had it covered with weak solids but i was definitely wrong. But, i stayed tight not giving up my pocket shot and kept those easy spares in my pocket

ball selection:

started with xspower pin high above bridge
then moved to equation, same layout but cg kicked out bit more to the right
then moved to radar, pin very close to axis for max control

had tried moving in with ricoed rising but didnt work too well

missed about 5 10 pins in 10 games, but left about at least 3 per game

average 190.6

i have to admit it, if my spare game was solid, could ve averaged 200, and...
WRW and Duke are right, straight and hard on sport is the key

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.
