Bowling Goals

[Hammer]

My goal for this year was to finally have a league night like I use to have. Until the end of 2012 I was bowling lousy. I was very inconsistent. I was looking for a night like I use to have a couple of years ago. It was an uphill battle. I couldn't seem to get on track. Well league night tonight changed that. I bowled a 220, 214 and a 247.
That gave me a whopping 681 scratch series. I haven't had a scratch series of 600 or more in a long time. Not bad for a guy that will be 66 in less then a month. It
sure felt good to get over that hurdle. So my goal for the rest of this year is to bowl series that are at least 500 or more scratch. I use to do that for a whole year with some 600 series thrown in. At least I know it is still in me. Tonight my best was real good.

I accomplished a couple of my goals for last year:
Shoot a 300 game
Win 3 tournaments
Receive 3 lessons from USBC Gold Coach

My old boss used the same definition of a couple. He he sent you to get a couple of 2 by 4s and you came back with only two you got yelled at.

score better than my son when we bowl together.

That was always my Dad's goal, didn't happen very often after he passed 75 years old.

My bowling goals for 2013 would be as follows:

600 series
Raise my average in league
Break my high score of 220
Raise my average on picking up spares
Take at least a handful of bowling lessons

Raise my average to 175. (Currently 153)
Hone in my delivery to a repeatable and easy feel. (Instead of constant tweaks)

We are halfway through my league, give or take a week. Looking over my leaue scores spreadsheet I can see the sprinklings of 140s and 150s are gone, but like almost everyone here I just want to get more consistent. My average is up to 190, it would be nice if I could raise it up to 200 by the end of the league.

A 600 series was a milestone for me, I've since gotten about 6 or 7 of them! A 700 series is a goal of mine. An 800 series is one of those "wouldn't it be nice if" kind of a goal, as is a 300 game. But if I work towards the goal of consistency, those other goals should take care of themselves :-)

I guess my main goal is too just make it through the year. LOL!!!!

I guess my real bowling goals for 2013 is

1. get my average to over 220+ this year on THS and 200+ on sport shot/animal patterns
2. get a few more sanctioned 300 games
3. get at least 1 or more sanctioned 800 series this year
4. get myself back into shape and get back into my old bowling form like years ago
5. get to where I can go out and try and see if I can make it on the PBA50 tour
6. get to where I can go and try to bowl a few regular regional PBA events

Would like to put in a good showing at a couple of tournaments.
Get bot my league averages over 200 (currently 210/193).
A 300 game and 800 series would be awesome. Have never done either.
Improve my consistency in general.
