Anyone else struggling?

[Blomer]

Always seems about this time each year I got on a month long struggle. I feel good bowling but I'm just not doing what I need to do. Can't hit my mark, missing easy spares, etc. hopefully it ends tonight. Hopefully....

One of my houses I'm bowling better than I ever bowled the other one I'm having to make myself go every week.

I'm averaging 203 in one house 176 in the other. Travel challange shot leagues been ok 186. Tried about everything couldn't find anything to work Saturday changed back to the more aggressive ball I'd tried early in the season and shot 595. So at least there's always hope.

Good luck in cutting this winter slump short this year

Struggling? Yes, Since the beginning of the season.

Been having a few bright spots, but the consistency just isn't there.

I've been doing okay, but not terribly consistent. Two weeks above average, then two weeks below, but neither by a ton. Would love to solve the mystery regarding my footwork, which has been atrocious.....

I feel like I've been off all season , but checking my sanctioned league history on Leaguesecretary.com, for the first month and a half I would have a fairly good week followed by a bad week followed by an okay week and so on. The last week in October I went into four straight weeks of bad bowling. All season my ball speed has seemed to have been slower than normal. It's closer to normal left-handed than right but still down.

The last two weeks have been good, ball speed seem back to normal, still having the occasional mental lapse on easy spares but much better than the previous 4 weeks.

Struggling? Yes and no. I feel like I'm bowling better than I have in a long time and my averages have been creeping up, but I can't seem to shoot good series (600+). I've lost some weight recently (30+lbs) which allows me to have much better balance at the line and feel like I'm throwing decent shots, but not getting the carry. Then Spare shooting has been, literally, hit or miss. My average is up to 186, which is OK, but I feel with a little better spare shooting, I could be up close to 200.

I've been struggling with shot making. My average is up about 5 pins over last year, but I'm just not feeling great about it. Looking back on previous years I typically figure some things out towards the end of January and go on a run. Hopefully this year I can get my accuracy and spare shooting in line over the next month and continue that trend.

5 of 12 (41.7%) series over 600, with one of them BELOW 500


On the house with synthetic lanes, I'm at my all time high average of 215.

9 of 14 series over 600 (64.3%), with 4 of them over 700.

Whole season has been up and down. Hi series of 698, low of 503. Averaging 4 pins less than last year. Crazy

I never shot over 600 in November in league. Dec 1st I shot my first 600+ since October.
