Buddies Winter Challenge Week 12, 11/24/25

Pattern: 2025 Open Championship (doubles & singles) 43'

Scores:
204, 112, 212, total 528

First game was pretty solid, one open on a split. I was bowling against a good young bowler who was subbing and was pleasantly surprised to be up by 27 after game one. We moved pairs and I promptly dumped the first ball in the gutter, made the spare. things went down hill from there, a missed ten pin, at least one split and three washouts...
Moved to 41-42, made a fairly good guess as to where to move, won the game by 13.

By the way there were some very high scores this week as well as a bowler who had 8 in a row to start a game, a guy who had the front 9 and his opponent who went X, -/, 8/ X,X,X,X,X,X,X,X,X to win.

Great Job!!

Its weird how on some sport/challenge patterns....bowlers tend to do well and then some patterns nearly everyone does poorly. I've always heard the USBC Open patterns are some of the hardest patterns to bowl on, even harder than the PBA patterns in most cases.

First game was pretty solid. Second game I wasted three frames trying a different ball. The last game featured 5 splits including a 5-10 in the tenth.

I figured a PBA50 pattern might be a little more forgiving?

The last game featured 5 splits including a 5-10 in the tenth.

Ughhh....well, you can't really count a game with 5 splits. Whatta ys goin to do??

All in all terrible spare shooting and there were a lot of spares to shoot at. If I'm remembering correctly my good game had a 6-7 split, a greek church and a 4-6 split. By the middle of the last game, my opponent commented that on this pair it seemed like you could throw the exact same shot as you had the previous frame on that lane and get a completely different ball reaction, and I agreed.
