Third series with the SD-73 Classic  188-201-279=668.  Stoned an 8-pin in the 7th frame that the bowlers watching me said was the best of the 12 shots I threw that game.  No T-shirt for me...YET !!

  Still have to work on the problem of the first game.  I now have 3 series on this ball (641, 642, 668) and each time game #1 is sub 200.  Each time the lanes were dressed right before league play and the ball gets "squirrely" until I cut a path into the fresh oil and get it to carry down the lane.  The backend does not respond predictably until I do this.  Might have to go find a little more polish : )

  Ball is smooth as silk though...will have to buy a couple and put them away (undrilled) for future use
