I bowled in a tournament in Racine, IL, at Plaza Bowling Center. Sunday (10/21) was qualifying. I had sprained my ankle last monday and was not able to use my normal release. I had to keep my approach and release slow, smooth, and easy. I was put in class A, 161-200 AVG, 90% of 200 handicap. I had a whopping 4 pins handicap, I had a 198 AVG last year, it was a 4 game qualifier. I might have been able to move up to scratch, but didn't think I would be able to beat some of the other scratch bowlers. I ended up in 1st in my division, and would have ended up 1st in scratch by a pin. I shot 276, 258, 245, 188 for a 967 (241 AVG). The 4 game total is a career high and the first 3 games would have been I career high series for me (779, previous was 741 earlier this year). The 276 was not a career high, career high was 279. Next week I have to back there for semifinals and championship trophies.
