Thought I would never get a chance to write this.
« on: December 30, 2012, 12:09:52 PM »
I just shot my first 800 series at the age of 67. I had almost given up on ever shooting one. It was getting so late in life to do what I could not do in my prime. I have always carried a fair average. Currently 214, but the new equipment changes the lanes so drastically that it is hard for me to be consistent over the whole night. I start out good, say 240 or 250, but it goes downhill from there. The lanes dry up and I am moving left the rest of the night. But on Thursday I got lucky and did not have to move. If there is a best article or book out there to teach this old dude to make the proper adjustments, the way to get it would be appreciated.

Congrats on your 800 series...from another 67 yr...I understand the part about always getting close but no luck in the end...
