After 2 weeks of rest, we’re back to bowling yesterday.
It was drizzling when I left the office in Makati. And this already worsened the traffic. Nonetheless, I arrived at the venue at around 6 PM. Also, the start of the games was slightly delayed.
My Games
My first game was great! I scored 206! I made 6 strikes (2 doubles and 2 singles), 4 spares, and an open 8th frame due to a split.
But the score wasn’t good enough! It’s still short of 19 pins to become a member of the 225 Club – an exclusive club for male bowlers who scored 225 or higher (for lady bowlers, it’s180 Club). Currently, the 225 Club has 8 members only; and the 180 Club 7 only.
Since my 1st game was over par, I was gunning for 225 in the 2nd and/or the 3rd game to qualify for the club. I needed to stitch at least 5 strikes to get it. You know what? I scored 285!
Unfortunately, the 285 was the sum of my 2nd and 3rd games – 149 and 136, respectively. Lousy games! My 2nd game had 3 strikes, 3 spares and 4 open (3rd frame was split). Worse was the 3rd game with 1 strike, 4 spares, 5 open (the 1st 2 frames were split).
Maybe it’s the effect of vitamin “B”

I mean "Beer".
I just averaged 163.67 as against my previous average of 179.33. My current average would definitely drop.
The Team
Our team won all the three (3) games against team Chamber of Mines / MGB.
The schedule next week is cancelled as the airconditioning system of the venue would undergo repairs.
Top 10 teams after week 5 (I haven’t received the results for this week yet).
Our team, FAG Bearing Center, landed in the top 10.
