There were only 5 balls drilled up for the week. The shelves were full of balls that did not make sense to me. I drilled a couple balls for PJ because he changed his specs. He is going to start using grips now. I drilled some balls 4 total for Matt Friberg is going to change to 16 lbs and needs some help. The kid has talent but can't seem to get the job done. I haven't watched much of him lately but will do so in the coming weeks. Drilled two balls for Steve Rogers who was looking for something different than I was. I wanted him to shut down the lane and he kept trying to open it up. I drilled a couple balls that would allow him to slow down and stay square but he chose a different direction. I drilled a Solid Fury for Tom Baker and Stevie Weber to see if it would give them a better look on the fresh. The scoring pace is so low that you never know if it is the ball or you and neither of those tow bowlers have enough faith in the Solid Fury to keep using it under those conditions.

Overall it was a very frustrating week. I knew I wasn't going to have balls to work with but thought the lower scoring pace would make everything alright for the talent of the staff. I am sure everyone of them would tell you they blame themselves just like I blame myself. Oh well lets get to Medford and hope the balls show up there.
