High Series 736 in July '08
Heroes:Don Mattingly, former NBA star Kerry Kittles, and bowlers such as Roth, Holman, Duke, Barnes, WRW Jr
Sorry haven't posted in a while. Got a new PBA Shark ball (elite bowling) and the ball does move.
(At least 2-3 boards left from using the Resurgence - I'm a stroker/down-in type player) I brought my average up to 213 on Mondays at my normal house.. But at another Bowling Center that we've tried this summer league, I'm only around 192. Different oil pattern, but honestly I still have to figure out what the heck I'm doing wrong there, 11 weeks in with 4 to go.
I hope you all have had a nice summer and bowled well. Take care! :)
My 1st week at 2 summe leagues went as follows. 498, 522. If that doesn't stink more than an
upside down skunk on the side of the road, I don't know what does.
This week, 615, 671. Much better. My coach started me about a month ago going straight
at my corner pin spares (4,6,7,10) with a spare ball now breaking my wrist. I have not perfected it by far, but it's hopefully going to pay off in the long run.
Lanes seem to dry up before we had a chance to start up the last week off winter league.
(I know, no excuse)
Sunday, finished up with a 610 (ending the season at 196 avg.)
Monday, a 565 w high gm 221. Never adjusted quite right. (ended this league season at 199 avg.)
All n all, i've made a big jump in average from last summers 168. Lots more work to do over the summer. I'd like to get to the next level, whatever that is, hopefully
making it into the 200's, and will try and get some tournament experience.
