No more than for a piece of furniture ordered online.

I'm not sure that I see any improvement in my "consistancy", so I'm hoping that I will see that somewhere down the road.  I've only been practicing for a month, I realize it will take more time.  I'm just not a very patient person. 

:laugh:

And now, the scores for today's games.

125 - 134 - 103 - 101 - 121 - 125

Just like my first week, I was able to score over 100 on each game.  I'm happy about that.  ;D

I didn't drop the ball any games either, so I was please with that as well.  I do think I won't wait as long to get the new bowling equipment.  At least this way, I can get used to the new ball.  I think I'll get a lighter ball as well.  I believe the one I have is a 16 pound ball, I'm thinking maybe a 14 pounder will be better.

Congratulations on your good scores today, Chuck!   ;)

That sounds like a good idea to buy your new ball sooner.  If it's the rainbow ball, you have to get a picture of you holding it so we can see.   :)

Bowling update for today.

I think overall I did  better today than last week.  My second game was not good, as I was distracted by another bowler who was throwing ball after ball after ball.  He was rotating three different balls at once, hitting frame after frame after frame.


And now, the scores for today's games.

127 - 93 - 133 - 124 - 116 - 132

Again, I didn't drop the ball, so I was very happy about that.  I do need to focus more.  There were times I was just throwing the ball, instead of looking at where I needed the ball to go, and being attentive.   I can see that the average is starting to creep up a bit.  ;D

Chuck, your table of scores is starting to be really helpful for analysis by now.  I'd say you did have a good day.

As for focusing, that's good that you diagnosed the problem.  You do need to aim for where you want the ball to go on a particular throw, depending on what pins are left.  But I can understand how distracting that other bowler must have been!
