    Eh, not so good this week... ended up slightly under average for the night and our team only took 2 points. I was just flat out pooped by the third game from a really killer weekend at work (that would be, let's see, 22.5 hours in two days). So yeah, I kinda phoned it in. Oh well.

    The good news is that I figured out where my hook went, or rather why I was flattening out the ball so much. Somewhere in the last year or so (probably because of that &*^%$! sportsmen league at Fox last year) I had changed my starting hand position. I used to start out under the ball, but I changed it to starting more on the side of the ball. Ergo, not as much lift and not as much roll. Once I went back to starting under the ball, the ball moved like it used to.

    OK, I promise next week will be better.

    So last Monday I rolled a 235, which is my high game for the year so far and also the high women's scratch game in the league.

    I still have high women's average... 5 pins ahead of the 2nd place average. But the 235 game and 550 series last week has bumped my average up 2 pins. Whoo!
