Corey's bowling scores

[coreyds012778]

summer trio
156 -109- 175
3rd week in a row I have bowled over my sad avg (these week was at 120)

open bowling after league, wife and friends
game 1 158
game 2 162
game 3 121

[Shaneshu87]

just keep going brotha! one day you'll be calling that 175 a low game/average! practice makes perfect

[coreyds012778]

yeah it is coming along. bout time, lol

[fortheloveofbowling]

Keep working on it man. Don't set your goals so high that you can't attain them. If your average is 125 at the end of the summer then set a goal fir the fall to be at 140 by the end of the year. Set a series goal and maybe some other smaller things as well like spare shooting percentage or whatever. That way you can constantly feel your improving as your game progresses. Good luck and above all HAVE FUN!!

[coreyds012778]

have not been, just looking for avg.

[coreyds012778]

little practice today, think I should do my other plan and went target shooting. thought is was going to rain so plan b lol.

[Konvict1982]

Keep it up man nice looking games! Practice spares more than strikes when you can. I usually bowl 3 game sets and use at least one game throwing the first ball at the 10 pin (as right hander) and then use the 2nd shot trying to clean up whatever is left. It really helped improve my spare game and overall scores.

[coreyds012778]

still get use to reading the lanes, so I get to practice a lot of spare shots. how the lanes have been playing, pocket shots have been leaving splits. ugh.

same combo I been in balls I been using for the last week. roto grip hysteria 15lbs (really loving these ball) and my ebonite cyclone 14lbs (may need be replaced)

154
176 (4 strikes at the start of the game)
170 (maybe 4 strikes the whole game mainly spare shooting)

[coreyds012778]

Some nice games in there man. After your sessions stop and think about the games and what made you more successful during the higher games. I make notes about things i've learned so i can go back and look at them. Keep working out there!

[coreyds012778]

I do know what I did, good adjustments, some luck, spare shooting, and staying calm and having fun.

lower games,
I was still having fun, stayed calm, but just bad timing, bad adjustments,
