WEEK 25 19th March
First off, a word about the lanes. As you all know we had a few misgivings about the Stonehenge pattern. Recently we got together with the chief tech, Mike and he layed out three patterns for us to try. Myself, Steve ferguson and Dave Cooper were invited to try these out and we picked one that we thought would be the best for our league. However, the one chosen meant an adjustment to the amount of oil put down. But it transpired that the machine wouldn't keep this adjustment and kept reverting back. Please don't ask me the ins and outs as I'm not a mechanic. Mike has since sorted the nearest pattern to the one we chose and this was used last week as a trial. This appears to have been successful as we had our best week of the season so far as scoring was concerned. So we will be sticking to this pattern from now on. The pattern - WALL STREET.
Now, as said, it was our best week of the season with 20 x 200 games (6 x 190+ near misses) and 4 x 600 series. The weekly scratch average shot up by 2 pins to 162. There were also 5 seasonal best achievements by different bowlers. Those deuces - Daren Knightsbridge 216/214/205, Trevor Hammond 268/213, Max Slater 245/212, Harley Guy-Sinclair 232/203, Alex Kimpton 222/201, Jeff Campbell 254, Steve Lockwood 234, Layton Palmer 220, Craig Davey 205, Steve Ferguson 204, Bryan Harvey 204, Dean Morgan 202, Brian Johnson and Chris White both with 200. The six sets were by Trevor 654, Max 639, Daren 635 and Jeff 607. Well bowled everybody.
