The thing here would be to try and remember how you were set up when you bowled that 217 game. What board was your sliding foot on and what target down lane were you throwing at? When you get set up with all that, before you start your approach, say to yourself
stay behind the ball. You want to stay there until you feel your thumb come out then you can put some fingers into your release. Those revs will look so nice. Congrats.

Congrats man! I had my first 200+ last week, actually my first two in the same day a game apart!
It's a great feeling, the best feeling though I imagine is doing it week in week out! Get to it!

Nope. Not to sound arrogant but like anything else in life, you not only get use to it, you want more.

once you get more 200's then you want 225's :) after that is 250's that you covet.... :D

that next big score that's waiting for you to find it is part of what makes this game great.

Congrats, doesn't the rush feel amazing! I remember I walked home from the alley ( which is over a mile away ) with a huge grin on my face. haha I couldn't stop retelling the story

Congratulations! I bowled my first 200 game in over 15 years this past Sunday. Then again having a new ball that day helped :)

Congrats! I got my one and only 212 game when I was 11 or 12 when I was a good bowler lol I just picked it back up after about a 12 year hiatus because my gf wanted to join a league with our friends I just redrilled my old ball and got fingertips about 3 weeks ago and I bowled a 195 last week and I was really excited until I realized I haven't beaten my high score that I set when I was about 12 lol but it will be coming shortly I hope, but congrats again
