We don't bowl on my Wednesday league for two weeks. We didn't bowl last Wednesday and we don't bowl tomorrow due to the guys on the league deer hunting as it's an afternoon league.
But I did sub tonight for the Tuesday 5 man league. After last week's debacle, I just decided to go out and have fun.
Well, I shot a clean 237 (no-tapped it), a 223 with one open and then had problems with my Thunderstruck as well as my spare shooting (left 4 opens) before making a ball change to the Terminator for the 10th frame to strike it out for a 162 game. I should have changed balls sooner.
The team won all three games and we as a team all shot well, shooting over 1000 scratch in each game, which is a good accomplishment as the low average guy carried a 185 average. So shooting a 1000 scratch meant everyone had to bowl over their average.
We dominated the first two games, but game 3 was close due to my 4 open frames. But we caught a break as I led off the 10th frame with those 3 strikes and the other team's lead off bowler missed a single pin for the open frame and just like that, we made up 21 pins right there. The game remained close and our anchor bowler doubled in the 10th and their anchor bowler didn't double, allowing us to escape with a close victory and a series sweep. I'll take a team victory over a bad game any day. Me striking out that 10th frame was key to the sweep.
Next Wednesday (Dec 3rd), I'm back on the regular Wednesday league. Looking forward to going back to that league again.
