I bowl on Monday nights at a house that up until this year had wooden lanes and old broken pins... I averaged around 209 there. This year they decided to put synthetic lanes in and brand new pins, so I think that this year is going to be great. It took me FIVE weeks to shoot 600 and my average is barely 190. The lanes tend to be very oily and very long if I had to guess I would say 42-45 feet. I start every night with my Ultimate inferno, I have high revs and speed between16-17 mph on the qubica. I can destroy the rack consistently and leave I dont know how many ten pins, nine pins, eight pins, and sevin-ten splits. Meanwhile I look at the 75 year old guys bowling next to me throwing ashtray balls 13 mph and barely hitting the headpin and carrying everything. There are some days that I shoot 500 and some days that I shoot high 6, and I do not change anything about how I throw the ball. I just cant seem to figure out how I cant carry throwing BOMBS but everyone else doesnt have a problem.
I also have more breakdown issues than everyone else. About the third frame every second game like clockwork my Ultimate starts coming in on the nose. I switch to my absolute and it is fine, then about the 8th frame of the third game it starts getting nosy and I blow 240 250 games. Everyone else keeps their same up 10 board line all friggin night... Its getting frustrating. I pick up the ten pin 99% of the time that I leave it, it just seems like I leave it 99% of the time.
