Tonight got off to a good start. \u00a0I managed to bowl a 522 series, which isn’t bad. \u00a0It’s still a 173 average, but I would like to be bowling closer to 185 – 190. \u00a0I guess I can’t complain too much, seeing as this is my first season and all.<\/p>\n
During warm up, I noticed my Twisted Fury was cutting back really hard on the backend and going high on the left lane and finding the pocket pretty well on the right lane. \u00a0So I decided to use my Twisted Fury on the right lane and the Arch Rival on the left. \u00a0I had the fingers and thumb on my White Dot fine tuned tonight so it fit my hand a little nicer and I used it to good effect tonight. \u00a0I think I converted about 70% of my spares, including a 2,4,10 split, so with a little more practise, I think I might be able to get that statistic pretty close to 100%.<\/p>\n
Okay. \u00a0So my first game was pretty good. \u00a0I threw an open frame to start (not so good) but keep a pretty clean sheet from there to squeeze out a 203 by striking out in the 10th. \u00a0After that game, I was feeling pretty good about the night since I usually start the night with a mid 150 game. \u00a0My second game was far below that for a miserable 146. \u00a0This game had splits all over the place, including a 6, 7, 9 ,10, a 4,6,7,10 and a 6,7,10… only some of the most difficult splits to convert in the entire game. \u00a0My third game was a much more respectable 183, to round the night out.<\/p>\n
Tonight made me realize that I need to work on consistency in my targeting and release. \u00a0I threw a couple of balls in the gutter after a couple of strikes, which is something I’ve been struggling for the past couple of months. I’ve been experimenting with my releases a little lately, which might explain why I might not be making the best shots as often as I could, but I think I’m getting the release down so hopefully those problems will disappear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
