    I'm going to concentrate on focus and staying in the moment. Lately I'm finding myself finishing the shot in my mind and the ball is still in my hand.

    I agree. That is the only thing I really need to work on.

    Like Drano I'm taking the summer off, at least from league. I may wander over to the alley from time to time and experiment on my left-handed game.

    now that i'm having fun again,i'm going to work on making faster changes,either for lanes conditions or ball changes. right now in my bag i either hold the ball low or high, different hand positions, 5 to 4 step approach or vice versa and last but not least is the ball choice that i have. once that i feel that i'm throwing a good ball , i can make a change with in 3-4 frames right now but i'm trying to get it down. what do you fellow bowlers do and how fast do you make your changes?

    I always change a couple frames too late, because instead of reacting I debate whether I executed properly and the lane changed or I did any one of the half dozen bad things I'm prone to do with a bowling ball.
    First adjustment is with the feet and the target, second is ball speed, third is hand position, last is a ball change.

    one of my biggest problems was when i knew i was throwing a good ball but getting tapped all the time,i didn't make a quick enough adjustment.

    I am going to try my best to improve keeping my mouth shut, to smile more, and have more fun no matter what the lanes are giving us on any given day. I practiced on one of the PBA experience shots today and found it was too easy, for me it was easy anyway...while others did not have as much luck and were giving me dirty looks and making sarcastic remarks, I had to control myself and tune them out!! I need to work on being able to tune out negative bowlers around me at will!!! Then I will have accomplished my goal.... :-)
