New record (with Scandal)
« on: May 01, 2016, 03:05:42 PM »
I'm the 218, my dad is the 202. (his record is 279 I think, he's having a bad period).
And it's the first time I've had no open frames until the end, which I'm very happy with, I usually leave one open in the middle somewhere :P
Previous high score was 211.


I used my Scandal for both throws (strike and spare).

Had a great time at practice this evening.
188-204-189-213 = 794. Which is also a new high score for 4 games. (In our league, we play 4 games).
I used my Scandal all the time, for sparing too. My C300 ball was being chewed up by the machine at the alley me and my dad bowled at on Sunday. The burn marks on it got worse for each time the ball came back :/

Got a new record again :D


Loving the Scandal :D
Might get another one when the next season starts, along with a Bad Intentions Hybrid.

Got a match on Tuesday, going to be interesting. I'm the only one in the club that haven't played a 200 game in the season. In our club.

Good to see you are enjoying bowling so much. Keep it up, and congratulations!

The burn marks in the cover generally mean one or two things: either your ball's cover is too aggressive for the shot condition you are playing on......or you have a too high rev rate for the condition you are playing on.

Either way, go to a milder covered ball.

Went bowling this evening, with my dad.
The conditions out on the lanes there is pretty dry, meh, shit :P
First to third game was pretty meh.
Fourth game was average for me, these days.
Then fortunatly I didn't do a fool around game for the fifth game, and just used my Scandal. And then I got a new top score again :D
256, and I got 7 strikes in a row, which is also a new record for me.



Looking forward to the new season more and more :D

Can't be bothered to make a review of my new balls, so just going to tell about my experience with them so far here.
Had practice with the club on Wednesday and it went:
233-246-169-179.
Only used the Grudge ball. Wanted to beat my total score. Got 827. Previous record was 794.
I got tired after the 2nd game, which doesn't bode well for the match on Monday :P Will be playing at an alley where it becomes so damn hot. Last time I played there I became dizzy when I was supposed to spare the 10 in the 10th frame. Hoping the weather will be cold for the next days and Monday. The alley becomes so hot because it's basically a tin can :P

I could've gotten a new single game record that day, but I missed the damn 10 pin in that 246 game in the 10th frame.
