8/20
My best outing ever
168, 140, 182 , 214, 202
I dropped macho stuff and listened to my coach, slow rolling at 13 to 14 miles. Game 5 would of been a record if not for a gutter ball following a spare.
8.18 first ball average
22/56 strikes
19/32 spares, 7/9 on single pins, 4/5 on the 7 pin.
I did not bother paying for game 6 following back to back 200s, which is the first time ever I posted 2 in one day. 598 over the last 3 games. I intended practicing a game throwing at left corner pins will do so on another day. I hope more days like that.

There are no leagues on friday, lanes were not oiled but outing sucked. I'm not versatile, I only play second arrow, and strikes weren't falling.

08/25
League Final
We swept our opponents 3 week, and made Cindarella run to play for championship. We were getting 40 points.
Game 1 I throw 169, both of my teammates above average, we win by 158 points.
Game 2 139, both of my teammates below average we lose.
Game 3 I start with a spare, follow with 2 strikes, but only get one mark the rest of the way, both of my teammates below average, we lose, between the 3 of us we made one mark in the last 3 frames, we did not deserve a win. Our opponents weren't great, but they did enough.
We decided to keep our team together for the fall. League be a USBC certified, weekly dues be $21 up from 20 last year, summer league was 15. Summer league was not USBC certified, not sure if last years was. It be a bigger league, I'll have to get better.

Did not post for a while. Bought new ball, Motiv Venom Shock. My thumb has gotten a little bigger so ball had to be drilled slightly different, I made mistake of bowling for the first time with a new ball at a league play.
On 09/08 bowled a 381, release issues due to the new drilling.
09/15 160, 137, 144 nothing great, but 3 games above average.

09/21 practice
181, 190, 139, 202, 173
In game 1 had a chance for my second career clean game, but missed a 7 pin on the 10th. 202 was the first 200 game with the new ball, and 13th overall, 12 of them were since july 1. 6th game took about 15 throws at a 7 pin, still suck there.

Got my first league 500 series!
180, 159, 176 515
My team swept for the second week in a row. Threw 12 strikes on the night. Trouble is after 9 games I'm averaging 149, so next week I'm expected to bowl no less than 150, I can imagine what you guys here that average in the 200s feel like.

Bowled 13 games today, which is the most I ever got in 2 hours, usually I only manage 12 in 2 hours, that means I threw more strikes today, haha.
113, 138, 156, 181, 177, 161 201, 155. 182, 161, 200, 185, 168

Got 2 200 games in one day, means 15 in my life, 3 of them with the Shock.

45/140 strikes
50/90 spares made 3 splits today
28/42 single spares

I'm very pleased that 11 games in a row I bowled 150+, cause on Tuesday I bowled a 411 series, hopefully is behind me. I'm anxiously awaiting new high game, I have a feeling it's coming soon.

Ahhh...the good ole days of 12-game practices!!

No longer my "thang" for a few reasons:
1) $$- The new center only offers a 0.75 cent reduction for league members...so you end up paying around $3/game.
2) Practices more "focused"...now I still try to practice regularly...but there's usually something specific I'm trying to work on.
3) With my shot more reliant on the oil pattern than it used to be...and the new center only oiling lanes pre-leagues...there's really not as much of a 'point' to practicing. I practice spare shooting and my plastic ball hooks. I try to practice my strike shot...by Game 3 I'm down to my weakest ball and still can't stay right of the headpin.

I'll probably try and get some practice in tonight. Not sure what I'll work on specifically. Probably at least one game of just shooting corner pins. Maybe get a feel for the new ball in the arsenal...how close/different it is to the Melee Jab.

But keep it up! Once you get things worked out a bit more...the good news is you might not need "marathon sessions". I actually miss it in some ways. People might say I'm crazy...but I could bowl all day. My only limitation is $$ and the possibility that my knee may spontaneously collapse. Well, that and trying to bowl on dry plywood doesn't tell ya much regarding what your ball is going to do on league night.
