Ever picked up a 7-10 Split?
In a crazy stroke of luck, I pulled it off just one time.
Unfortunately I never got the pin from the league.

I haven't bowled in at least 6 years.
Now, I don't even know if I could keep the ball on the lane.

Solve below to fill the following:
38° AB.XXX and 104° CD.YYY

AB = Michael Shequin
CD = Patrick King
Hint: [Svefg CON50 Frnfba]

Score these teams' series to find the decimal number for the cache.
Top Team is North (XXX)
Bottom Team is West (YYY)

Related Web Page is only for show. It has nothing to do with the puzzle.

Took me a little bit to solve the puzzle. Made it to GZ, including the updated location for the hide but with no luck. The area had recently been mowed. And the immediate area of GZ had been greatly disturbed recently, making me wonder if the cache is still there. It's hard to get a look outside of business hours. I'll be back.

Well, I haven't been bowling in quite a while, but I do remember how to do the scoring with strikes and spares. That got me started on this one. Then -- handicap? Uhhh, might have to do an Internet search. And is this a tournament thing, where there are specific rules? Hold on -- not the same number of players on the two teams. So, I managed to sort through all of that, and after a few unsuccessful tries on geochecker, I finally got Success!
Then I got to GZ.
There was still some snow on the ground, and that made it a bit challenging to look around where the CO had logged that a replacement cache was at the base of a tree. Hey look -- several trees around here, and snow on the ground!
Grrr ...
Not deterred, I looked and looked and eventually had to expand my search before I spotted the hiding spot from about 20 feet away. Doh!
Very glad to solve the puzzle, find this "lonely" cache that hasn't been found in over a year, and get 5 points toward the "Social Butterfly" souvenir thingy.
TFTC !

Found quickly. We had solved this earlier while still at home. Thanks for the hide. SL

It was the first snow of the season so, considering there would be fewer people out, I figured it would be easier to do maintenance.

Replaced container. It is at the base of a nearby tree, only a few feet away from current final. Use your geosense. I'll update the final when I recalculate and get the puzzle updated.

I have been in several summer bowling leagues at this location. I also remember when the establishment next door was call the "Corner Pocket" which was a pool hall. It catered to 18 years olds and sold 3.2 beer back in the day when 18 year old could drink 3.2. Thanks for the puzzle!
