Bowled SOOOO BAD that I thought about Giving IT UP!!!

[MICHAEL]

Bowling is a PUZZLE, enigma to me!!!!!!! How can a Super Hero bowl so damn good some days on a local alley! And then out of NO WHERE, Faster than a speeding bullet bowl like it was the first bowling ball held in your hands!

We were ½ game out of first yesterday, and I bowled a 3 game total so low that if it were put into pennies I couldn’t buy a Denny’s $5.00 breakfast! I tried everything, Started with the V.G. Nanno, then went to the Marauder Madness, then my life saver 700 series 3 times ball THE MARUADER!! NOTHING, NAUGHT, NIL,,, BLANK,, Zero results!!

I tried everything but bowl on my knees begging for a strike, or even good game! We only won 1 game!! I think we are still in second, but we could have been in first! Here is the KICKER!!!!!!!!!!!! WE played a team in last place!! Not a bad team,,, some good bowlers, but LAST PLACE! Our team had a bad day everyone, BUT JOYCE!! SHE was solid and on her average!!

My question is have YOU EVER HAD A DAY where ALL,,,, NOT ONE<< NOT two(((((BUT ALL YOUR GAMES SUCKED)))!!
Everyone tells you,,, Don’t give up!!!! LIKE I AM NOT TRYING!! I was trying so hard that I was sweating bullets!! NOTHING!!

I was So damn depressed that we went to Taco Bell and I ordered 10 soft shell Taco’s with a HIGH SUGER drink,,,,, yes I was on the edge,,,, tried to OD my useless, worthless bowling body on JuNk FoOD!!!!

Had Nightmares all night about bowling,,, is it time for me to hang it up!! I am not sure I could experience that again, and survive!!
Just woke up and its clear the OD of Taco Bell did not achieve its objective, I am still here!

And so is that worthless falling apart,,,, like me,,,,, Storm 1 spare bowling ball! Just looking at IT,,,, Makes,,,,, me ,,, want to eat 13 Hard shell Taco's, and a large Chocolate malt, with whip-cream 6 inches high and a cherry on top!

Ive bowled some guys that sucked so much that I didn't want to continue for the day.. but normally it's during practice.. during my competition all these I'll normally play better then average.. maybe because of the atmosphere or what I don't know.. haha.. Cheers!

Yup, bad days/ruts/slumps happen to everyone, the main thing to do is not to get mad at yourself, when that happens your a lost cause. remember your there to have fun first and bowl well second.

Taco Bell is never the way to go Mike......


Nightmares? sounds like a warning for Friday......

Just did that last week sadly. I just could NOT figure out the lanes. didn't shoot my average any of the games.

Check out the post from over the weekend about Grinding it out. that pretty much sums things up.

Week before last I bowled really badly. I wouldn't have believed I could do that poorly. I didn't bowl my average in any of the three games. Then last week I did a magnificiant job, above my average in each of the games, with one nearly 30 pins above. So, give it a while and you'll be back to your old self.

You have to play each frame as its own game. Each shot needs to be made with a clear mind. Thinking about missing your last shot will make you focus less on your next shot. I am a victim of this myself. The worst by far is those "nice" pocket hits which leave pins standing.
