Well I am doing good and bad both.  Just so you know where I am coming from my book average for the last couple of years is in the upper 180's one high of 192 two years ago.  I am getting older and can not crank the ball because my elbow and fingers were getting to sore so I have changed to a more down and in bowler this year so of course there is a learning curve with that.  I bowl two 6:00pm leagues in the same house so you would think the averages should be close to the same they have in the past well one night (Wednesday) it is 194 and the other (Sunday) it is 173 it seems like I just can not get the carry I am on the other.  It is nothing for me to only have 5 stikes with no doubles on Sunday night and a bunch of spares with the one or two opens a game and if I am bowling good clean games in the 180's.  On Wednesday I am getting at least 10 strikes a night and still getting the spares the same but when you throw in a double your 170-185 goes to 185-200 not counting a turkey.  I just have no idea I have tried every line I can think of and the results are just not there on Sunday night.  What I really think it the house has two leagues Sunday night at the same time and one is a PBA experience and I think they are not changing the lane machine between the leagues and we end up bowling on the PBA shot except on Sunday nothing works for more than a few frames and then it is time to find a new line it is nothing to go from one ball for 4 frames then throw a couple of bad balls and have to change balls and lines and by the end of the game that is now gone and you need to go back to the first ball the next game.  Usually I can use my go to ball the first 2 games and sometimes all three by moving a little using the same target but not on Sunday no one can seem to figure it out except the 100-130 bowlers that drop the ball or just throw it with nothing on it they seem to get lucky on the condition.

There I got that off my chest I fell better now until Sunday although I did manage a 600 last Sunday now if I just don't come back with a sub 500 this week.

For only bowling in one league a week and recovering from a broken right shin bone I can't complain too much. 3-4 weeks ago I shot my 2nd league 300, the average stands at 216 and I'm covering my 10 pins pretty solid. That was always my weakness. I'll admit my timing is off and I have some work to do to get back to before the broken leg but I'm feeling pretty confident this year. I'll find out how much rust I knocked off in about 1.5 hours or so.
