Darn it....still can't get that first 700 series....
« on: May 31, 2007, 02:33:57 PM »
I had a 692 tonight. Needed the first two in the tenth but pulled the second one and only got nine. Someday.....

At least I feel like I can show myself again at the bowling alley. We just stared a summer league. Last week was the first week and I rolled a "wonderful" 500 series. Exactly 500. A "tremendous" 166 average. I just couldn't make a spare especially pick up a ten pin all night. My first ball was great only I just didn't get any luck or carry. I was using my Odyssey. I made up for that tonight with a 692. That will raise my average up to 198 for next week, something more like what I should have. And I was using the Mystic this week. To say I like that ball is an understatement.

Good series nevertheless!

Just keep bowling, and you'll get there. It took me a while, but I just had one day when I was just on fire and couldn't miss. You'll get that day eventually, just have fun until you do (when you'll have more fun).

I give this advice to one off students and the same advice was given to me. "When you stop thinking about the score and start thinking about bowling it will happen and when it dose the next one easer." this advice was given to me when I did not have any honor scores and I followed it and now I do. I gave this advice to a student on Monday and he called my Wednesday night to tell me that he shot his first 300 game. fins4ever88 is right have fun when you bowl. Theres no point in stressing over it when it happens it happens. Bowl good and have fun.

I sometimes forget how hard it can be or how long it seems to take when you are after your first one.

  Good luck and keep trying, it's gotta come soon.
