Watch the lines of other bowlers and see what they're doing and what equipment they are using, especially the ones that are bowling well. Sometimes it pays to do as they are, and sometimes it pays to play a completely different line. Hope you do well and have fun

How'd you end up doing in the tournament?

[Newbie Dan]

well I didn't do as well I would like but I bowled my average so with my handicap my score was 570. Needed to score 638 to make the cut. I did have fun and would do it again.

it's a good start bowling in a tournament is different than open or league bowling. Congrats on being willing to put yourself out there

That's still a decent score that you got. I personally like the atmosphere of the tournaments I've been in. I like bowling under pressure. It's probably the reason why my team always designates me as the anchor in any of the leagues we bowl in. Definitely a good experience that you can learn from.
