Yes, have it again. Maybe next time more people will go. I know I wanted to go, but I had to work. Let us know the next bowling night/day out.

If you have a Bowling GTG at a reasonable hour (weekend afternoon or any evening) I'm sure a lot of people will go. We've had a lot of fun in the past when we've gone.

hit what you are looking at!

make your spares

keep your feet slow

Cant_Be_Faded
12-06-2005, 11:43 PM
feet slow eh?

i suck ass at making spares....usually I use a heavy ball 1st, then use a light ball for spares, cuz i feel i can achieve greater accuracy with a lighter ball

KEDA
12-06-2005, 11:47 PM
actually keep it the same weight for both

the heavier the ball, the slower you roll it, the more accurate you are


dont get a light ball that you sling down there, the high rate of speed will actually cause the ball to deflect more. The heavier the ball the more force hits the pins, therfore making the ball "drive" through the pins better.

ever wondered why the pros on TV every Sunday never throw 6 pounders?

KEDA
12-06-2005, 11:49 PM
BigZak was throwing a 14 I believe and his scores were much better when he was slowly rolling it down the lane, when he started to throw it faster, he was much less accurate and his scores went in the shitter, luckily he had me to show him the way!

Cant_Be_Faded
12-06-2005, 11:49 PM
Yeah I know light balls have a light impact. But I have trouble controlling heavy balls (wait for it...)

Those pro's also have sick ass spins, I can't do that. I use conventional style.
So I should use a moderately heavy ball and focus on precision more than force?

KEDA
12-06-2005, 11:51 PM
bingo!

KEDA
12-06-2005, 11:52 PM
where are you bowling?

A true challenge.

Unlike some of the bowling alleys here in SA.

KEDA

true

nothing like throwing it pure and leave a 7-9


AND IM RIGHT HANDED!!!

A 7-9?

Dude, try a 10 or a solid 8. A 7-9 is just a bad shot with no roll.

If you can play the middle with a slight angle to the pocket, you usually score well there.

I don't have enough revs to stay in there though. So I am usually stuck with the taps.

KEDA
12-07-2005, 03:56 PM
I think you are thinking an 8-10, that would be the correct leave for a right hander with no roll


a 7-9 is a lefthanders version of an 8-10, for a righty lo leave that its a blowout 7 and a solid 9, a 7-9 for a righty is very hard to do, but it has happened to me 2 times there.

SequSpur
12-07-2005, 03:58 PM
Nope. Change balls, roll out.

KEDA

Sequ and KEDA = Bowling superstars of Spurstalk


hey...I can hang with the best of them... (I don't know how Sequ bowls...BUT I sure can beat KEDA's ass any day!!) :lol

I have beat him in many tournaments and pot bowling on Tuesday nights...

KEDA is good though...I'm not knocking him... He has helped me a lot with my game and equipment. I just don't like it when girls are left out of the "GOOD" bowler list. (Hopefully KEDA has my back on this...)

Oak Hills is a bit of a challenge. Has anyone tried bowling at Turner Club Lanes? I think it's on 9th street. I bowled in a league there a couple of years ago, and the lanes were tough. At that time at the other houses, I had a 196 avg., but at Turner I avg. 183! The lanes are dry inside and oily outside. I guess you could say it's a reverse block condition. It helps in you throw straight and have great accuracy.
