Yup this is what I've started doing, especially considering I just picked the game back up again recently. I can't bowl in league right now due to work schedule, but hey, gives me plenty of time to get things right for when I get that chance again.

This week for me its going to be all about projecting the ball out more and not pulling it.  I used to have a knee that  gave me problems, and now that its not an issue the things I used to do to compensate are giving me problems.

Also drives me nuts when I'm asked how well I scored. People look at you crazy when you tell them you didn't even look because you were working on some things.

Well anyone who is asking your scores during practice or thinking you crazy cause you are trying to work on something new during practice are crazy. Everyone should be learning something new during practice or you have wasted your time.

Yeah I always love the looks people give you when they see you with your own equipment and they see like a 125 up there and in their mind you know they are thinking they could beat you.

I usually do try and throw at least one " real" game just to work on the mind a bit and see how I'm progressing. Its funny to see the reaction when they start hearing you string strikes together and post a good score up after that.  ;D

Yes, i believe at the end of every practice session that you have been trying something new you should go back to your normal style and bowl good. This way you leave with a positive attitude and see you can still bowl well .
