Hello to all you crazy bowlers!! I just picked up bowling in aug jumped right in to a league that goes to vegas in the end of the season. when i started i was just over a 100. I think my book avg is a 110 with a handicap of 90 something pins. With a little practice and utube i am up to 130 book and HC is low 80s. I even started to another night during the week which is a football league this league is making my game better too. i never thought i would like bowling this much thats what i get for knocking on the sport.
Now to my question i throw the ball with no hook at all!!!! is that good or bad ? Either way i found my spot on the lane that works for my straight ball. last night i went over my avg all three games. 168-152-147. oh and i cant pick up my spares to save my life i do the board counting and it was going okay and all of the sudden it wasnt working for me. then someone told me to point my toes to the pin or pins i want to pick up also worked for a bit and now nothing. any info on this would be great thank you
