Pin Smackers – Week 7
Week 7 Pin Smackers took on Force. Pin Smacker won the first game by 112 pins or so. Thanks to my shitty ass second game we only won the second game by 5 pins. I am pretty sure we won the third game to take 11 out of 11 points.
My scores were as follows:
| Game 1: | 203 |
| Game 2: | 148 |
| Game 3: | 183 |
| Series: | 534 |
| Average: | 178 |
203 is my highest game for the South Asian Bowling League. Click here to view my weekly scores.
Pin Smackers – Week 6
Week six was a position round. Pin Smackers were to face off against Pin Pals, the number one team. Despite a big 98 pin win in the first game, the Pin Pals were able to come back with a 105 pin win in the second game. With Pin Smackers down a man and another man rushing through 5 straight frames to leave early, Pin Smackers were unable to make up the 7 point difference and lost the third game. Pin Smackers took 3 out of 11 points.
My score were as follows:
| Game 1: | 145 |
| Game 2: | 201 |
| Game 3: | 150 |
| Series: | 496 |
| Average: | 165 |

A2Z Tournament at AMF Syosset
Syosset, NY – On Friday, August 19th A2ZBowling.com held a tournament. Jess and I bowled in it. This was only my second tournament and considering I just started throwing a finger tip ball I wasn’t expecting much. I ended up finishing 27th out of atleast 43 (I don’t remember how many people were in the handicap division), I believe Jess finished 37th. Yes, obviously we entered the handicap division, considering my average is only 151 and Jess’s is under 200 as well. My handicap ended up being, 71. We bowled 4 games in round 1, my scores are below:
| Game | Scratch Score | Handicap | Handicap Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 114 | 71 | 185 |
| 2 | 150 | 71 | 221 |
| 3 | 170 | 71 | 241 |
| 4 | 177 | 71 | 248 |
| Total | 611 | 284 | 895 |
| Average | 153 | 224 |
Finger Tip Ball
My friend Jess, gave me her old ball to get re-drilled finger-tip style. I just got the ball on Saturday and I didn’t have anytime to practice. So, I had to practice during league practice. The ball actually felt good off the fingers, but still have to figure out how to throw it. I wasn’t planning on using it during league but it felt really good so I used it. I did pretty good, two average games and two over average games. My two average games were 144 and 149. My two over average games were 184, and 195. Ironically enough I beat Jess those two over average games with her own ball lol. There is a tournament on Friday Jess wants me to bowl in since I did pretty good with her ball. I’m thinking about it, but I dunno, we will see.

Operation Bulk-Up
So two weeks ago Laura and I joined Planet Fitness. A week later we signed up for this “Design Your own Workout” class. Our “consultant” Josh asked us a few questions like: what we wanted to achieve, have we been to the gym before and which ones, and how many days we planned on going to the gym. He then designed a work out routine that would help us achieve our goals. I told him I was gonna try to go three days. I have the time just not the motivation.
Yesterday I was supposed to start my routine but I had to help Laura with some homework, so I will be starting tonight, right after I finish writing this.
The workout routine that Josh came up for me was:
* This routine is supposed to come in between two 20 minute cardio sessions.
