Went back to Flinging the Ball for one night and WOW!!!
« on: February 22, 2004, 06:52:37 AM »
Okay, I had a bad week of work this past week. It was some rough days, and the brain was fried. Went to league on Friday night. Didn't care how I was going to do. Just wanted to throw ball and not think about it.

I knew the lanes would have a lighter oil pattern due to Monday night league (It was about Medium oil). Took old reliable (Cuda/C) and just threw the ball to right and watched it come back. Had two opens all night (4 6 7 and 10 pin).  Only made one move all night. Third Game had to move four more boards left due to the 4 6 7 leave (Came in high)

Threw a 695 Series (Highest for this year). We played the first place team and swept them. Had a lot of fun and enjoyed the night. It was great!!!

Had many different strike balls. I didn't have a brooklyn. A true flinger would have at least two brooklyn's a night.

Sometimes flinging the ball is just what you need to do. If the lanes are going to give you an area, why not use it to your advantage. Maybe we need to have balance between the two (Accuracy and Flinging).
Talkin' Trash!

flinging is when you dont really use a set target, you just kind of put the ball in a general area of where you want it to be, and hope it gets to where its supposed to go.

AM not A CHICK OF BOWLING but I wanted to be in Manda's clique And why would I "saw" pins in half, THATS A WASTE OF PINS! I'd rather blow it over with my storm, and 21mph ball speed on dry shots.
