Throwing six full games in less than two hours leads to some low scores. At least she had a good game. This was actually my fith game, not 2nd. I threw 3 games right before playing with her.

Nothing like a call from your fraud claim company to let you know that someone has been trying to use your debit card on the biggest sales day of the year. Joke's on the con who stole my information. There's only $7 in the account. But now I have to wait for a new card which could take a while.

I hope that my PSO gets my Columbia 300 Atlas drilled next month. It's an older ball but one that I'm really looking forward to. Hoping for my Motiv Jackal Ghost and Revolt Uprising LE, too.

A quick practice yesterday morning. Not a high score but decent.

Shot a 211 with the Track Archetype Hybrid at league last night. I slid on a drop of oil on the approach at the beginning of game 2 and tore or strained my calf muscle. It was so bad that I could barely walk. But, I kept going. Game 2 with the Effect and game 3 with the Dark Web Hybrid suffered.

The last time my PSO sent text images prior to the post before this one. This is the Effect and the Pure Envy.

It's exciting to get a text image from your pro shop operator showing that your gear is finally getting drilled. From left to right: Archetype Hybrid, Dark Web Hybrid, and Big Time Special Edition (14 lbs each).

This is the Track Archetype Solid bowling ball that helped me reach my highest score to date, today, of 223.
Previously, it was 211 by a Track Theorem.
The other balls over 200 include: Motiv Black Venom, Hammer Pure Envy, Hammer Effect, DV8 Trouble Maker Pearl, Brunswick Perfect Mindset.

Keep your balls clean!

Played 7 games (in order of ball used: Archetype Solid, Archetype Solid, Archetype Solid, Big Time Special Edition, Big Time Special Edition, Black Venom, and Tundra Fire Blue.)
It's the first time in many days that I have been able to get out of my head and just enjoy the moment. Little victories.

A new high score for me (previously 211). I used my Archetype Solid. I love that ball!

1984 Kansas City Kings all signed a ball for me when I got sick during their final game.
