Bowled the first week of the Chameleon pattern this week.  Didn't do as well as I thought I would, but still bowled decent.  I had practiced on the pattern earlier in the week, and did pretty good using a ball with a dull finish.  However, when we bowled league, the ball was coming in high, so I switched to a similar ball, but with a pearlized shell.  In warm ups I was flush.  But when we started bowling for score, I was going through the nose and leaving splits.  I opened up with 2 splits, and then bowled a 4 bagger, and ended up bowling a 212 for the first game.  I started to lose it after that.  It seemed like one lane was starting to break down, and the other was getting more carry down.  So I ended up making oppisite adjustments on the lanes.  We will see if I can learn from this and improve my scores this coming week.  I bowled a 212, 188, and a 172 for a 572 series.
