Of the sub-500 club.  I put together a stunning 146-180-170 for an impressive 496.

I left my equipment in the car as punishment for their lack of cooperation.

If you wonder if you're good enough, then you're not good enough.

i sadly shot a solid 465 last night (155, 134, 176).  The worst part is that a guy more than triple my age was able to take those bone dry lanes and shoot 687.  i had to throw my yankee doodle plastic right up 4 WRW style they were so bad.

Man, there was this guy tonight, talk about a story.  In youth leagues, he was one of the top dogs, shot 825 one year.  NOTHING about his game has changed since then.  He shot 452.  One of those straight players that really isn't affected by lane conditions.  I don't know how he ever shot 800, it's beyond me.

Thanks.  I knew you guys would come forward and let me know I'm not the only one.  You all are the greatest *sniff*.

WSUStroker, my problem was the opposite.  I think the stripper pad on the lane machine somehow stopped working because there was oil all the way to the backstops.  Guy on the pair next to me who shot 300 in game 1 last week took 13 frames to get his first strike, which is exactly what I did.  I didn't double until the 10th frame of the 2nd game.  I collected a total of 4 strikes in that game and 4 more in the 3rd game.

Where ever my strike game went, my spare game went along, because I whiffed a few easy ones tonight.  Now I've got to try to sleep with this heroic effort in my head.

I haven't shot under 500 this year, and I don't suppose I will now unless something goes drastically wrong, but as terribly as I was bowling to begin the season, I can't see how I avoided it.  513 has been my worst so far, and I was worried going into the last game that I wouldn't make it.
