I start out the day at my pro shop where I punched a new thumb slug in my TANTRUM. I drilled it up for myself to take to an afternoon league 15 miles from the shop called Strike Time Lanes.
Game 1 300!!! Ball rolled great. This center is a wood house alot of volume 15-15 tapered out X-Mas tree to the edge. Scoring pattern at this house is Medium to High. Every ball was dead flush 10 back. Next Game I shoot 259 and followed it up with a 231 for a nice series of 790.
I also bowl in a classic 2 man league 2nd shift. This is bowled at my home house (Strike Zone Alley) where the I own the pro shop. This house is synthetics 41 ft top hat house pattern. Scoring pattern here is usually Medium. IN practice I wasnt getting enough on the back out of my 930 T so I picked up the ball I rolled earlier today TANTRUM. GAME 1 10 pin, 4 pin - back 10 = 279. GAME 2. 300!! (2nd of the day at 2 different houses and 2 different bowling associations!!). I followed this up with 213 (couple 9 pins, 2 4 pins and a 4-9) for a series of 792!!
This is the 3rd 300 of the year for me this season (23rd overall) the other coming with the 930 T. I just wanted to share this story with the TRACK Nation and thank TRACK for the great equipment they have provided us with!!!!!
