After 51 weeks the doctor finally let me start back bowling. ASfter leaving the doctors I went to where I bowl on Fridays. After using all 25 pieces of tape I had with me on 2 balls I proceeded to shoot 3 130 games. The thumbs were still too loose so I was either grabbing or dropping the balls 940 pound seight loss will do thsat to you. While I was there I had the pro shop make me a new IT (more about that later.

Went to the center I bowl at on Mondays tonight (theyn have a all you can bowl from 10pm-12pm for $4.50) After fine tuning the 2 new thumbs I proceeded to bowl 5 games 150-237-188-199-184. One of the new thumbs broke during a shot causing me to throw a gutter on a spare. In games 2-5 I had 4 splits (picked up2) and 2 other opens. I left the 8 pin on a bucket and the 8 pin on a 2-4-8 because I didn't realize it was there and shot it like a 2-4

I threw a 60x4.5x35 Venom Toxin sliding 43 playing 17-8

What??!?!?! You mean have no fun?

Good luck Storm. It will all come back in due time. I took 4 years off (for financial not medical reasons) and 9 weeks into the season I am just now starting to see my game come back in small glimpses.

Mondy night mens handicap 157-190-200=547. Web got there late and missed practice so it was about the 6th frame before i was comfortable throwing the ball. struck out the 10th to give us a 1 pin lead going into my son. He struck out to seal the deal. Game 2 started going high so made a 2 an` adjudtment. I left an 8-10, moved my feet back right 1 board and went 6-7-10. Changed balls in the 8th and went off the sheet. Game 3 missed a 4-7 and had a split for 200. We swept the firsdt place teeeaam bowling them basically straight up ( 2 pins difference in handicap). I started with the Cobra s.e and switched to ther Motiv GT` in the 8th frame of game 2

You don't need to warm up... LOL Your cold 235 first game was your best,,,, maybe you have Iceman blood in your veins and bowl your best at 32 degrees!! Maybe when you warm up, its not a GOOD THING!! (:)

I agree on some of the spare shooting! I don't have any problems with the 7, just throw my strike ball. But that pesky 10 pin! .... some nights,.... I hit it 90 percent of the time,,,, others,,,, I hit it 10 percent! It's crazy!! I didn't have that many last night bowling with my son, but it was one of those hit it 10 percent of the time nights... still can't complain had a good night!

Since your First game was your best, while COLD, you might try taking a few bags of Ice to the lanes, and sit on one bag, and put the other on your lap!! See if that helps!!

I know when crossing the desert on my motorcycle with women, Iceman would purchase a large bag of Ice, punch a few holes in it and put in on the lap of my beautiful female passenger.... it keep her cool,,, and every once in a while she would put it up to my back and let the ice water leak out over my shoulders.... It felt like air-conditioning, while crossing the 100 plus deserts between Kansas City and California!

Biggest problem shooting the 7 last night was there was substantially more oil than usual. Normally one of my warmup shots is shooting the 4-7 so I just through my normal spare shot at it and it didn't get there. The second missed 7 I just pulled. I was 6 of 9 on the 4,or 7 and 6 of 6 on 10 pins
