Better than expected! :)

I bowled early this week and my scores were like a 60 something, 90 something, 60 something... so "something" I didn't even bother to write down what the something was because I just bowled really crappy.

Tonight I bowled again... and for the first time since I started actually bowled 100+ in each game
107/118/109

111 ave.

Not to shabby! I'm going to go eat a cookie because I have my second 300+ series :P

Call me impressed. I usually take a down between my trips to the lane but since I took today off, I ended up there this afternoon.

Avg 106
141/84/95

I bowled my highest ever today

HAPPY!

check out www.bowlingknowledge.info
there is great info there from a great coach. Maybe some of it will kick start your game for you.

Thank you!!! The guy I was trying to get ahold of to work with as a coach never called me back. The pro I got wind of this and while he won't be getting officially certified until Sept he has offered to help me because he knows how passionate I am at just becoming a better bowler.

No offense to any coach who has been around awhile, BUT if they don't stay up on the changes in the game then they end up not being able to fully help their clients. That's usually one advantage to having a "newer" coach. Of course they sometimes lack the experience needed so it can be a catch-22.
You'll be fine though. Good luck.

Thank you for your encouragement. I am starting to get discouraged at times that my game is literally still all over the place.

Because you have a passion I know you will do well. Pay attention to your coach, go out and get some practice, and really concentrate on the pointers he'll give you. If you want second opinions or have other questions in between coaching sessions, do not hesitate to post those questions here. We all love the game here and want to see those people that feel the same way succeed. Good luck and keep us informed.

Discouragement is part of life. It happens to all of us. Just don't let it win. Keep at it, keep the passion and things will get better.
The great games are a glimpse of the future, of what you're truly capable of at this time. The low games are a reminder, of where we were and where we can be again if we lose the passion to improve.

Without the bad we would never truly know how the good is. This of course, goes beyond bowling.

My most consistent series since I've started. Picked up some spares that I never in a million years thought I'd be able to.

My Pyramid Path got a little bit of tape and I'm able to throw that down the lane again as well
