What is your Bowling average?

[PrettyLilMoon]

Well, I'm a 200 (even) bowler, but I had broke my ankle back the first of June so my first night back was a little tough and very uncomfortable. 138-175-180. I had missed a 5 pin for a spare on the first frame of the first game of the year. Talk about second guessing if I started to early. Any how, the only other missed spares were 5 splits and a washout (most in the first game). Not a lot of strikes that night either, only about 8 or 9. I'm still hoping to push above the 200 even mark this year, maybe 205-210, but my ankle will have to stop hurting for that to start to happen.

P.S. I broke my push off ankle. My ankle was sprained real bad in the accident also, so that may be where most of the pain is coming from (the sprain, not the break).

I, too, hope that you make a speedy recovery and regain your previous comfort level! I hope I'm not out of line by saying that you might should take it easy so as to not do any further damage. Although I know that I am likely to bowl in pain too because the pain of not bowling is sometimes more prominent! Good luck!

Good luck on the ankle and hope your back to 100 % really soon !

Thanks everyone and I do expect to get back to at the least my previous average of 200 before to long. Still may take about a month or so. This much is true, not many 190-200 bowlers in my house (except the guys on my team) are real happy with my 164 average, LOL. We bowl on a spot type handicap head to head. Some will be spotting me about 40-50 pins or more, LOL. I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Also, my ankle was perty sore the next day, some of it was due to the injury and some to not using it like before (if that makes since?). But yes, I do plan on not doing more than throwing the ball for now, mainly going through the motions for now. I would really like to kick it up a notch in about month, hopefully it won't be as tender then .

I roll 13# equipment, and am adjusting to the lower weight.
Carry is not quite as good as 14-15#.

Hopefully I'll average 200+ in one leagu and 190 in the other.
