Practice

I dont know, I am really bored so I was trying to think of something to post. So my question is.....how much does everyone practice, and what does your practice session consist of?

For me, right now, it is 1 or 2 days a week, usually just 3-5 games. Oh yee, plus league on "sport-like stuff". When bigger tournaments come up, thats when I usually really practice. Damn, Im borrrrrrrrred.....

i practice when ever i can, sometimes it 0 times, sometimes its 5. It depends on my free time. I bowl every friday in league, (4 games) and after work(at a bowlingalley) on sundays i usually try to bowl. I also get lessons sometimes on mondays with my boss cuz i always have some crap to work on. So usually its 2-3 times a week, with league. When i do practice though, its at least 4 games, and if i have extra cash, it might be 8 (i get a ggame for 1.25 cents so its no big deal)

Haven't thrown a ball in practice for nearly 2 years, not counting the 5 or 6 shots each week before league.  I sometimes wonder what I might average instead of around 200, if I did practice.

Practice?  Isn't that the five minutes of warmup you get before league starts?

Ditto.  A lack of being able to drive = No outside practice.

Hmm, probably why i suck.  Oh well.
