I am now officially a member of the sub-500 club (477). Last night's league shot was something I doubt anyone has ever seen before. 43 feet (or more) of heavy oil, flat, then absolutely bone dry (stripped twice). Too much speed - miss right (washout, 2-8-10, etc), a little soft or left - miss left. Plus, as a bonus, if you hit the hole your carry percentage was around 10 to 20. You had your choice of what bad angle to play - my best luck was left of 4th arrow out to 8 at 45 feet, but all this did was, now and again, hit the hole. 2 board, second arrow, 3d arrow, were all equally bad - no, make that probably worse. I think I had 3 strikes all night. I was 10 boards left on the approach of normal to shoot 10 pins, throwing back-up balls at them. Now why this "shot" was out there I've no idea. I might have done better if I had a weaker ball, but at the moment I don't (though I did order one yesterday); I did try my XXXL, but it skidded for 45 feet then rolled out. I am SO looking forward to more of the same next week.
