Sorry for this one just had too.
« on: September 20, 2003, 08:10:42 AM »
I know that it isn't much for most of you, but I am pretty excited shot my best series ever tonight.  231-172-248 for a 651.  I lost the shot the second game finally found it late in the game.  I was most proud of only three opens.  6-8 split 4-9 split and whiffed 10 pin.  Well thanks for reading.  It is late here and just wanted to share with someone.

Way to go.  Looks like you're ready to run with the big dogs.  Always glad to see someone's personal best.  I forsee a 700 next.

Hey, card79, congratulations.  It's always nice to set a new personal high.

Any personal accomplishment is a great high.  700 is probably just around the corner.  Congrats.

Great series! Treasure the high that goes with it - I'm sure there will be many, many more to come.

Nothing to apologize for, it is always exciting to put together a high series.  I know how I felt with my high in state a few months ago.  Around here most celebrate eachother's accomplishments.  Great shooting and, as other's have said, I'm sure the 700 will come soon.

Congratulations Card!  If you keep that up, and I keep shooting like I have been we need to be partnered up for the Hoinke again.  We will be unbeatable Nice shooting!  As much as I hope to see you report a 700, just wait until I get mine

Great Shooting Card!  I see your last game was close to your personal best there as well...  As the season unfolds, I suspect these scores will become more common as you continually improve.  Again, good job, and the best of luck to you througout the year!

Thank you everyone.  It means a lot to me to read your responses.  I went through a very rough summer trying to change a lot of things in my game.  After going to the hoinke and seeing the great bowlers there I made my mind up that I was doing ok, but to get good my game had to be different.  I took to heart a lot of advice I got for Nicanor and went and got John Jowdy's book and have been trying to change my approach and armswing completely.  Last night for me felt like a turning of the corner.  I haven't been any more that 570 or so since trying to change this stuff.  As a matter of fact right after I started the changes I even bowled back to back 413 and 443's.  

Thank you all for your kind words.  I just got really excited last night and wanted to share it with everyone.

Thanks

Andy
