the un-figjam or disjam
« on: December 08, 2010, 04:51:00 AM »
131 155 137 and those were scratch..no handi-cap in those babies..

I could not keep the ball on the lanes ALL NIGHT..

At one point in the first game, i had one spare and 4 splits in the first five frames and hand to double to get the 131..

Meanwhile, the low rev players were having a field day and must have felt like PDW on those lanes because of the hook they were getting..

We all have those nights.  I am trying to work my game back into shape and made some changes.  I hadn't shot under 600 in 3 years in league and shot 532 last week.  It seemed like everytime I missed in I left a split...and couldn't make a spare to save my life.

Dang I Stink Just Ask Me.... I rolled a 522 with a 127 1st game last week....  Seems like I've been having that one or 2 really bad game a set more often this year....

Maybe one of the FIGJAMmers on this site can coach me....

Maybe you need a new ball driller.

Damn. I Suck Just Ask Me... I haven't shot my average in months, every week I  throw at least one game in the 150 range.  Thought I turned the corner Monday, went 192, 193, 147 with 4 splits.

Funny you should say that...  I was gonna say "Maybe CRD could help me" instead of Figjammers, LoL!!  Seriously.  He's put my game down w/out seeing me, so I figure he's gotta be real good... Just ask him....

We had a guy a couple of weeks ago go 173-300-141, so I guess he has a combined figjam and un-figjam

Bowled on Shark a few days ago in a tourney and went double gutter, it was the greatest feeling one could have, shot 110. Funny thing is I switched balls the next game and went 220. Made me feel a whole lot better knowing I was using the wrong ball......lol

Did a whopping 114 in this year's first league start - and needed a double to get over the 100 in the last frame...

Had this happen last night on the chamaeleon, 403 series. Worst series of my life and nothing to blame but myself.

What kind of jerk would put somebody's game down without seeing them bowl.  I would never do that.  I am bowling bad enough that I have no room to comment on somebody else's game.

Have a nice day.


I know right.... But I bet you were a good bowler back in the day...

Ricky Nelson was right.

Hey you could be me the other night. I start out 259, 264 and then shoot 155. For Some reason first ball broke more and i tried moving and screwed my self till the last 5 shot. I threw a 5 bagger to finish with a 155.

My average has dropped 20 pins this year.  All my fault. No time to practice. Before the end of the season (roll offs), I hope to turn it around.  Right now, got to make hay.

I LOVE THIS HONESTY THREAD!

I did not bowl all summer because of a injury.The first week I bowled league in was
October I shot a 450,the next week was a 620,next week a 463.That's some consistent
shooting.
