i goofed again
« on: March 30, 2008, 09:37:59 AM »
I was bowling today on what is usually a pretty well oiled pattern and today for some reason it was pretty light.So i was thinking since the season is almost over and i wont see much more than medium walled shots this summer i would polish my cell.
    Mind you that i also have a polished nvs and a machine at 1500 or so ,but because my cell was hooking so much ,the nvs was leaving the 10 pin and my mean machine at 1500 was just too squirly i figure what the heck.Best reaction of all three was the polished cell . I didnt shoot phenomenal ,but i didnt look like the house hack i usually look like. one lane was 5 boards tighter than the other and i had the darndest time figuring it out.
    That being said now i have to get another cell and leave it dull. I hate when i screw up like this.Darn it ,all the balls i have and now i need to buy another cell for heavier oil because i dont want to dull this one up again. PLus i think my nvs has lost its spot in the bag and my dull odyssey is back in for now. Looking for a 16 pounder,(mine is 15),going to drill it pin under middle finger with mb just right of thumb. Going to keep it at 1000. I think it will be just strong enough for when the shots a little to much for my odyssey at 400.

You're basing having to buy another ball from one bad night ?? That makes absolutely no sense to me.  I don't care if you have all the $$$$ in the world, you'll never ( and I mean, never) be able to buy enough bowling balls to throw the ball one way and match up to any possible condtion that you may see, even on a league night.  For me, I'm trying to go the other way and buy less equipment and bring less equipment with me.  When I bring too many bowling balls, I definitely overthink things and it screws me up worse, so I've gone to just filling up my 4 ball bag (3 and a spare ball) which forces me to adjust to what I see on the lane as opposed to spending 2 gms figuring out which ball is the right one.

I think he means that he now wants to leave his Cell polished, and only wants to buy another so that he has one polished and one dull(box finish... which is 2000 abralon, BTW).
