Then there's always break-bowling:

dejavu:
Wow!

It certainly can!   :-\    :o     and maybe half a  :laugh:

CellarDweller:
Yeah, you won't find me spinning on my head any time soon.

Ok, time for my update!

Well, it was another mixed bag today.  ::)  I'm not sure about what happened in my last game, where I only managed to score a 79.  However, I had two games that were in the 130 range, and once again, I managed to turkey today (3 strikes in a row).  The only thing that I can think of is that I didn't sleep as well as I would've liked last night for being out late, and I was tired by the last game.

Here are this week's scores.

110 - 106 - 105 - 139 - 133 - 79

Still plagued with inconsistancy, but I'm feeling more comfortable as I bowl, so that's a good thing.  The ball seems very natural to handle.

Average took a tank today.  Hoping for a rebound next week!

Ok, time for my update!

Well, it was another mixed bag today.  ::)  I started off strongly, and then the second game took a huge tank.  I was not amused.  I did discover that I am a better bowler if I'm "easier" on the ball.  The second came this week, I was really trying to power the ball down the lane, and I ended up getting a number of gutter balls, and that game I had no marks.  For those who don't know, a "mark" is either a spare or strike.  If you want to score higher, you need to mark in the frames.  When I bowled easier, I tended to hit more spares.  In fact, the last game of the night, I got 5 spares in a row.

Here are this week's scores.

Average is still down, I'm planning next week to throw the ball easier, and see if my scores go up.
