Title: 299!!!
Post by: Rock77 on January 30, 2007, 10:07:05 PM
Last night in league, I shot a 299 with my Mean Machine. I debated on bringing it with me and threw it in the bag as a last second decision. I'm glad I did. I left a 4 pin on the final shot. I came in a bit high due to me slowing the ball down a bit. Had a real good reaction with it.

Overall, in my 4 game set, I shot 299,212,247,203 for a 961 series. I averaged 240.25 for the night. I am glad I took last week off to relax and regroup. I had been struggling and this is by far, my best night of the season. The first three games also sets a new 3 game series high for me at 758. Also, after the first two games, we switch pairs and I went to my Inertia due to the shot being a bit broken down.

Just wanted to share with all of you. Thanks for reading.

I switch your 299 with my 279... I left a tenpin in the 3rd frame but made the spare (been a whil since then and I struggled also with my style but hey!)

Congrats and next time make sure to have a ten pin left... that sounds just better

Ryan,

Nice set and sweet game bud. We all go through slumps....often they are difficult to climb out of. Keep up the good work.

Ryan: Excellent bowling man! Great to see you have an impressive 4 game set. I love the Mean Machine too- it's been my bread and butter ball at Lanes and Games in Cambridge. I'm sensing a 3rd 300 game for you is around the corner and possibly a 775+ set soon as well. Keep up the good work.

Rock, great bowling!  How did you line up on that
game?  Down and in or did you swing it?

I was able to find a nice line inside. I was standing on 25, hitting 13 at the arrows and using 10 as my break. I was riding the oil line the whole way down.

Another thing I should mention is this ball takes very well to hand position changes. During the first game I was coming around the side a bit so I was getting good length and backend. Then I moved in a bit for game 2 and came up the back and this ball turned into a heavy rolling, arcing reaction. I couldn't believe how much of a difference the hand position change made in the reaction of the ball.

Ryan,

Congratulations on your 299 and great series.  Hopefully this is a sign that your struggles are over.

Hey good shooting for the game and set. Make sure you dont get pulled back into that slump. I know for me I have been in one heck of a funk. Even a few 9 or 10 in a rows havent given me the jump to get out of them. Keep looking ahead and keep up the good shooting so you dont fall back into that slump.
