Bones-actually, the third game I knew ALL I needed was a 174 (started overthinking). The way I was bowling, I should have had it easily. But, I was getting in the pocket a little deeper, and was sparing, just not striking. Once I knew I needed to throw some strikes in to make it, too much thinking came into play.
At least I know I'm closer. The practicing is paying off, and the knowledge of the game is getting better. It's all a good sign!
