So after i Finished up with the teen league i run (shot 172-181-156) i stayed at the ally and bowled 3 practice games to test my blind theory, bowled the first one without my glasses and bowled a 197, so for the next game i tried putting my glasses back on but made sure to do the exact same thing i was doing during the first game, take it nice and slow and keep everything very smooth not trying to add revs or speed and i bowled a 201 (would have been higher if i didn't go through the nose in the 10th and leave a big 4). In the third game i continued with the same and threw another 197. all in all i think this has greatly improved my accuracy, my glasses breaking on Saturday was truly a blessing in disguise.
Lets see if i can keep this up :cool:

At least you know if you start bowling poorly all you have to do is take your glasses off and bowl better!

I can't bowl with my glasses on. The only problem I have with my eyes is that I have trouble seeing close like for reading. My far vision is just a little off. So when I bowl
the glasses come off.

Sound's like we're complete opposites! i'm extremely near sighted, when it comes to reading small print, someone will look for a magnify glass for 10 min, by the time they found it i read and transposed the microscopic text for them to read LOL, but when it comes to seeing far away (like the pin's in a bowling ally), without my glasses all i see is a white blob where the pins should be.

Funny story is the same thing happened to me about 6 or 7 years ago.. my glasses broke and I started bowling better I also thought it looked better for some reason and I haven't worn my glasses while bowling since
