Bowling Again - Week 7

Had a decent night on the lanes.  I missed 3 non-split spares out of 10.  I am still having an issues with my spares on the left side of the lane.  Overall, it was a good night, and I raised my average another 4 pins to a 182 average.  I hear some comments from some of the other bowlers about there being a lot of oil on the lanes.  That works out well for me due to the high revs I get.  I just have to remember if they change the lane conditions to a lighter pattern, I need to straighten out my ball instead of trying to overpower the lanes.

Bowling Again - Week 6

I went back to my old style of bowling (higher revs) this week.  My shoulder was pretty much toast by the end of the evening, but I shot my 1st 600 series in league since I started bowling again.  Had kind of a rough start; first 3 frames of the 1st game were washouts.  I didn't find the line until the end of the 1st game, but I did cover the rest of my spares.  I was able to stay in the pocket the 2nd and 3rd game (with minor adjustments).  I rolled a 170, 214 and a 224 for a 608 series.

Bowling Again - Week 5

Had my best set since getting back into league play.  My spare shooting was a lot better this week.  I was 13 out of 15 for non-split spares.  I had 3 splits in the 3 game set with 2 of them being pocket splits.  Another good stat was that my first ball average was 9.08 (My goal is for my 1st ball average to be over 9).

I rolled a 224, 190 and a 179 for a 593 series.  Thought I was going to have my 1st 600 series (maybe next week).
