    I track my Wednesday scores in the Scoring Sub-Forum and it's up and down. Been good the last few nights. Just trying to get more consistent with my release and the scores should follow. I don't expect a 245 every game but would be ecstatic with a 200+ season league average

    That sounds almost laughable now. In our center there are probably 300 scores at least 3-4 times a month if not more. I have come to appreciate 800 series vs 300 games more. It is a LOT harder to get 800's than 300's

    I remember those days being on the USBC board and being one of the lane inspectors
    at that time having to go and check the lanes, weigh the pins, and pull tape on the oil
    pattern, and to make sure the ball was within specs right after the game(s) or series
    were bowled before an honor score was recognized.

    Keep it up and you will. All of us has something we need to work on to get better. If you don't know yours watch video of your self bowling my guess is you already know what you need more work on
