Carl Richards Open - Team Event

My scores dropped in the team event.  As usual, I tried to come out using my high rev release.  When I tried to play outside the 10 board, the ball was coming in too hard.  And when I moved inside, it was a struggle to get the ball back up to the pocket.  I should have put the high rev release away when I went to cover the 1-2-4-8 spare, hit the head pin on the right and still left the 8 pin.  I tried to stick with it through the 1st game.  After switching to a down and in shot, I did much better.  And like yesterday, the lanes broke down differently, and I was using a different ball on each lane.  I was using a Tropical Breeze on the right lane (standing on the 20 board) and I was using the Blue Hammer on the left lane (standing on the 22 board).

After all events, I averaged 194 for the tournament (186 book average).

I should probably change my strategy to my primary release being the down and in shot and going to the high rev release only when the amount of oil dictates it.
