In the first round the lane condition broke down very quickly especially a couple of the left lanes. I started the 2nd game by missing the head pin left. After moving about 2 arrows left from the previous pair I finally managed to hit the pocket on the left lane. I ended up playing the 5th and 6th arrow the rest of the round using an Awesome Hook. I bowled pretty well the first round as the scores were fairly low. In the practice session the day before it was possible to play near the channel.
