A new season, a new ball, new highs!

Rather than post up scores/results every week we’ll just look to update the blog every now and then.

We are well into our 2nd season of the Monday Night Doubles at Watford Hollywood bowl. Having truly settled into the league we have made a fast start and after our first 5 matches we have positioned ourselves in the top 4. We actually made too good a start as now we are suffering with no handicap – meaning we have a major challenge on our hands before we even start a match, the head start we give some teams is too much. Due to this we’ve struggled to win our last 2 matches, but things will even out and we’ll win it this year!

Current league position: 4th

From a personal point of view I’m bowling well, averaging 206 (hence no handicap). My new ball (see above) – the Tropical Storm – is awesome, it carries longer and hits hard making the pin scatter. Even on Watford’s dry lanes it works. Danny at Bowlrite Tolworth knows his stuff – a brilliant reccomendation!

- Watford, March 08

PM: This was back in March whilst me and Andy were practicing (trying to remember what we used to do as kids). Not a bad ball reaction – see the 5-pin fly across to the 7-pin – sweet. Still I am a little fast on my approach and my arm swing is pacy too.
