Shout out to Storm (FIGJAM)
« on: February 15, 2009, 11:02:15 AM »
The city tournament started today here in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, and I got to bowl the first shift of the team event today at 1:30 p.m.

Started off the day using my Lane 1 Agent Orange, and threw a turkey.  The next two shots somewhat labored down the lane, and left me a split in the 5th, so I switched to my Hy-Road and ran the next 7 for a 245.

2nd game started off slow at 88 in the 5th, ran the sheet for 238.

3rd game I ran the front 10.  Absolutely labeled #11 and left a stone 10 pin and I am a lefty.  Covered the 10 pin for a 289.

245, 238, 289 - 772.  My 2nd highest series of the year, and 3rd 770 + series of the year.  (773, 772, 770)

My team is currently sitting in 1st place in the handicap team division, which is a huge bonus.

At +172 going into singles and doubles tomorrow I have a decent shot at taking down the all events title, but it will be really tough considering I only get like 5 pins of handicap per event.

I just wanted to share some more great experiences I am having with my Storm Hy-Road.

I have never matched up too well with Storm products, but this ball is really sweet!

Thanks for reading!

Yes I took mine to 4000 grit abralon because the box finish was a little too iffy for me.  At 4000 it's been a beast.

I just wanted to update, my all events score of 2231 is the NEW CITY RECORD!  The previous was 2169 set in 1994!

Also I used my Hy-Road tonight in another team event and helped my team to the Scratch City Championship!

I'm super PUMPED!

Trust me, I would have loved to, but for singles and doubles, it was just too much ball, so I went with the Lane #1 Agent Orange and shot 257, 258, 268 - 783 for doubles and 233, 237, 206- 676 for singles.

My partner posted a 660, so we are currently leading the scratch doubles, so I have a shot at winning 3 different titles this year!  I doubt the 1443 will hold up though, but you never know

Take a deep breath, relax, and accept a little teasing.
