Execution,  do what you intended to do.

Scoring well just makes me more forgiving of my errors.  People look at me strange when I strike on a poorly excecuted shot and I walk back shaking my head.  I expect execution and I don't let the score dictate my results to me, only to others.

Precision in execution is an advantage on any type of condition.  If you are talking about precision in terms of playing straighter, then that is another matter.  Straighter can be a disadvantage on house shots because the over under of a heavy oil buildup against a bone dry outside promotes better carry from a power release.  On flatter patterns the straighter delivery can still carry very well

Find the line that strikes and be as precise as possible in repeating that shot.  Make adjustments as necessary.

Accept the occasional lucky shot and learn from it at the same time.

Couldn't agree more. 

Have to laugh at the accept the occasional lucky shot only because some people don't think they should take it.  Last I checked, I've never seen a bowler throw a brook and come back saying that he/she wanted to do the shot over again because it wasn't right. 

The key is to improve your accuracy without trying to be too precise or you will be too tight to have good, consistent execution. 

It's not something that is going to be learned while you're bowling for score, or practicing once a week.

 Sometimes it is amazing, the knowledge that is cryptically hidden inside some of your messages.

 I wonder just how many really understood what you just said.

Objective - 2 be able to repeat the same line from front to back and get the same rotation on the ball.  If adjustments are needed being able to hit the exact board without going to over or under...  Maybe I am crazy but I beleive I should be able to strike with any ball I pull out of the bag with proper adjustment.  I understand each ball is designed for certain patterns but with adjustments any ball should work...

Maybe I am crazy and my expections are 2 high..

Yes, your expectations are too high. A more practical approach is "I should be able to hit the pocket with any ball I pull out".

Expecting to strike with any ball falls in line with the ridiculous,  ignorant,  arrogant ballreviews.com mantra of  "THS is so easy, yet I average 188 & have no honor scores In over a decade of bowling".

Try using a high pin, high RG, shiny pearl ball on a overwalled/extreme wet/dry condition and try to expect to strike.

Expecting to strike is asking for a lot of frustration. All you can do is hit the pocket.
