Great Night of Bowling: 590

Our bowling team finally took 7 points last night by winning all 3 games on our Thursday Night Men’s League.

I personally made a big change in my approach last night which caused me to play much farther left than I am used to.  But it was a great change.  My bowling ball reaction was so much better than usually.  I was way more consistent and only threw a handful of awful shots.

I started out the first game with my [bowlingball value=”6695″/].  I felt like I was making nice shots, but with a couple of pulled splits, I ended the game with a score of 175.  Like normal, if I don’t like my bowling ball reaction, then I try a different ball in my fill shot of the 10th.

Brian Halstrom helped me choose which bowling ball to change to.  He said I should try the [bowlingball value=”6303″/] on the same line, but stay aggressive.  I did and CRACK, strike.

I stayed with the [bowlingball value=”6303″/] for the final two games, only moving two boards left throughout the games.  The second game I scored a 202, and finished the night with a 213.

Overall, I have to credit the change in my game to moving back about two feet on the approach.  This helped me increase my bowling ball’s speed, but it did more than that.  I believe that it really helped improve my timing, which gave me great ball reaction.

Roto-Grip Cell Pearl Ball Review

The [bowlingball value=”6695″/] is the follow up to the original [bowlingball value=”6053″/].  It features a pearl reactive coverstock  in place of the solid reactive coverstock. 

Pin to PAP(4 1/4″ over 0″ up/down) – 4″
Mass Bias Position – 4″ from PAP
Pin Buffer – 1 1/2″
Balance Hole – none

Surface Preparation – Box Finish

My Personal Review:  I really liked the way this ball rolls.  Not only does it look great going down the lane, it also has the strongest backends of any of the equipment in my bag.  I am currently a 188 avg bowler that normally starts out standing 20 playing 10 at the arrows.  With this ball I am starting out standing at least 25 playing around 15.

Review of Cell Pearl

[bowlingball value=”6695,i150r”/]

My initial review of the [bowlingball value=”6695″/] is that the ball is very good.  I did not score well and I am a little frustrated with my lack of proper movement on the lane last night.  I thought about it after league and realized there are many things I would have changed.  I would like to test these before giving my final review.

I can comment on the look of the bowling ball.  It was awesome going down the lane.  I really liked the over all reaction of the ball, I was just playing it too far outside and not giving it a fair shake in the oil.  I will fix this and get a complete review of the [bowlingball value=”6695″/] up next week.

Testing the Roto-Grip Cell Pearl

[bowlingball value=”6695,i150r”/]

I am excited to bowl tonight. I get to test Roto-Grip’s newest release that comes out October 13, 2008, the [bowlingball value=”6695″/]. I know that the original [bowlingball value=”6053″/] was a fantastic bowling ball. I can only assume that the new bowling ball is going to go a little longer because of the pearlized coverstock and possibly store more energy for a great back end hook.

I am going to drill the ball with the #1 drilling layout. This layout has the Pin and Mass Bias 4″ from my PAP. I will post my review of the [bowlingball value=”6695″/] tomorrow.
