Pepsi Tournament
« on: March 28, 2006, 12:12:44 PM »
How did you guys do at your respective Pepsi Tournaments? Mine was this past Sunday and I bowled the 2nd shift (didn't oil after the first shift). Threw a 194, 206, and 227 for a 627 set. I don't think it's enough to take me to States though...

I must admit, I loved the reaction I got from my The One on the pattern. It had incredible amount of oil on the outsides (even on the 2nd shift), with little oil through the middle, which is completely opposite of what my house was. I usually play a smooth down-and-in at my house with my Vertigo, but at the tournament I swung my The One out to 10 and it came back hard.

I should've thrown a 650 or so, but my first game I was overdoing it, I guess from nerves, since it was my first tournament since getting back into bowling. Plus, my second game started with 2 opens. My Monster hooked past the 7 just barely in the first frame, and then fell off when I let it out too far to try and hit the 4 pin (I'm a lefty).

All in all, I had a good day though.

Mine was at Family Bowling Center, Fort Dodge, Iowa. Bowled second shift and there seemed like there was no oil at all. But i was dumb and brought all of my heavy oil stuff and my spare ball due to the fact that when i bowled there for family doubles i couldn't get anything to hook. But i shot 139, 191, 168 for a horrible 498
