For those of you who are superstitious...Ever heard of the Grip it & rip it Curse?
« on: March 13, 2005, 09:19:39 AM »
Well, after really having a great few months tossing the balls around, I began to grow increasingly confident in my game. I made huge steps forward. Then suddenly, I open the mail and my BR grip it and rip it wristband arrives. Since then, horror has insued. Prior to this week, I had shot below 500 only once all season. The past week these are my scores.
Practice session 1:433
League 1: 497
League 2: 513
Tournament 1: 414
Tournament 2: 522

Can you say ouch...this wristband is the devil!

maybe the wristband is too heavy and it causes too much fatigue
