Leagues are 4 games on Monday, 3 games on Thursday.  If I practice, I will throw 10 games per week.  If I am really hurting, I may throw up to 13.

This week so far:

Monday - 8 games
Tuesday - 9 games
Wednesday - 6 games (3 practice/3 sport league)
Thursday - **on edit** - threw 17 games working with Ron C. today.  I'm currently at 40 for the week.  I'll likely throw at least 10 more on Friday.
Friday - probably end up throwing a few more just to reinforce what Ron and I do today.

Just for comparison, when Danny Wiseman was working his way up to PBA National status, he bowled 40 games/day.  Extreme, to be sure, but you can't argue with results; Danny's Masters win this year probably more than paid for the time he spent in practice.

i try to throw practice about 2-3 times a week.

pending injuries (my wrecked thumb from last ngiht, as an example) i would throw 8-15 games per practice session.

this week so far i have bowled 25 games including league. with my thumb NOT hurting, i would assume i could get closer to my usual of 30-35 a week.

once i learn something new, or am in need of work on one facet of my game, i bust and bust and bust to get it 'there'.

Mesuring this factor weekly is inconsistant. For example, if I have league, but no JBT, I will usually do about 18 games. However, if I have JBT, I will usually do about 26 games...

3 games a week.  One league, no practice.  I wonder if I could raise my average to 220 if I practiced?  Have to try it out sometime.

Actually, after messaging with Ron C (Magic Carpet) I've decided to not bowl a summer league and practice - a lot.  I'm working on something with my release that I won't do in league until I get it right.  I'll probably put in at least 10+ games a week this summer.

I bowl 2 nights a week(3 games a night), minimum. I sub in 2 other leagues on occasion. I haven't found time(or money) to bowl in many tournaments this year, unfortunately.

3 leagues, Mon(sport), Wed & Thurs (both THS).  That's 9 games.  On Mondays, I will try to get 5-10 more games of practice after league.  Having the oppurtunity to practice on a sport pattern has improved my spare game.

So, I guess I bowl between 15 to 25 games a week.
