Saw Freak...
The house that is extremely tough, house is almost never blocked to speak of, and its also the one that towel oils once in a while, is the bowling alley in the Student Union Building of Boise State University here in Idaho (synthetic overlay as of 3 years ago). The other bowling alley the one that the sport shot is at is Lake Hazel Lanes (old wood lanes), that alley hasn't had any honor scores shot there this season period if I'm not mistaken, so both houses are both really tough anyway you go about it.

My average stayed pretty close to the same, I think like you said, I was a lot more consistent this year, especially in hitting pocket. at the house I bowl at that puts down a pretty easy shot (Westy's Garden lanes), I wasn't having a problem hitting pocket, in fact there were a few weeks that I didn't miss pocket all day long, problem I had most was getting things to carry out, Last year I averaged 228 there, this year I finished 218, so definately lower, but not by as much as I would have thought. In a tournament that goes around the area, goes to like 8 different houses in 8 months, I averaged around 215, whereas last year I averaged 224. So overall I was lower this year, but like you said, my low games weren't as low, but my high games weren't as high.

On Edit... Saw Freak, out of curiosity, you were wondering the names of the houses I bowl at. you live in Idaho or around here somewhere? and do I know you?
