Typical league high average?
« on: May 07, 2007, 12:12:08 AM »
Hello,

What is a typical high average for a league?  Ours has 30+ teams and the top individual averages are 214-210.  This seems low to me considering all the talk of how easy bowling is now.

All season we had 299, 298, and 297 for the top scores.

Just curious...

This season, I had high average in my 2 regular leagues this year, 205 & 218. The 205 was on a second-shift shot(never quite the same shot two weeks running), the 218 was on a fresh shot in another house. High in our association was 226, also on a fresh condition.
 Last season, we had a few guys over 230 and handful more in the 220+ range. I ended at 219 & 220 in the above 2 leagues last season(I think I was high in that late league last season, too).

202 is our league high

WE dont have the easiest pattern, nor the most difficult. If you throw a good ball is will reward you.

In my Friday Nite League I'm 226 and I'm lost in the shuffle.  I believe top is around 237 and 4th is 231.

Why does everyone try to make it harder than it really is?  Overthinking makes the game that much more difficult.

High average in my primary league is 241. There are a handful of guys in the 230's, and a dozen or so in the 220's. League median average is 219.

We have several regional players in the league, with at least 3 having cashed more than once. The condition is on the soft side, but a lot has to do with the caliber of players. We flat out have some really good bowlers, regardless of condition.

This past year i finished out with 233 and was 2nd in the league behind a 251...  4 other people were higher than 227 too. Its all relative to where you bowl i guess.

in the past our house was a THS, 42 ft buff,  high averages in the leagues I bowled up until this year ranged from 220-231. After resurfacing last summer and adding a bit of more volume the two leagues this year only yielded high end averages from 215-220. Far less honor scores being shot, only 2-800's this year compared to 10-12 in previous time frame a year ago far less 300's as well.Only 4 the past 9 months in both leagues.

Top at my house is low 2 teens. I believe 1 300 in the past couple years. Not an easy house at all.

247 was the highest.  242 for me.  couple others in the 240's including both of us on another night.  new hpl lanes should be outlawed.  i now have to scroll a decent amount on my honor score sheet.  and the guy with the 247 also is leading the house this year with 9 800's.
