The 188 game I had 2- 4-7-10 splits ! and a 3-6-10 -4-7 split !! so even with 3 splits in that game I shot 188 . Thought I had another 700 series .
Splits suck. Funny thing is even in a 9 pin no tap series I end up high 600s becasue of splits. lol

I usually finish up the 10th pretty good. Unless the game is on the line. Then I leave a split. LMAO

Practice is important. As well as accepting bad days.

Like today for me. 178 & 149. Couldn't keep the ball on the lane on the right side and the left side was tight. Can't say that I have ever been on a pair of lanes this totally different. I bowled so bad the 2nd game my 13 yr. old son beat me with his 161.

Oh well there is always next week.

I shot 300/691 in December. My brother was up from Texas for a week and stopped in at the alley just before the second game started. Rolled out 12 strikes while we visited. He finished his beer and left. I asked him to come back the next week but he wouldn't do it. I shot 300 once before. On Valentine's Day in 1994. My brother bowled on our team back then. I brought my TA home from the dealership after work that same day, skipped dinner and headed for the bowling alley. Might have been a little drunk that night. Probably helped. It was the first time I ever started a game with nine in a row. I don't consider myself a great bowler. I do believe that I'm a lucky bowler. You can be lucky and shoot 300. You can't be lucky and shoot 800. I've never shot 800. The funny thing is I don't really remember what my highest series was. 770 maybe? I'm not too serious about league bowling. Its mostly a social event! Win or lose.

1994 actually was probably my lost 300. Shot 299 a few years ago. have had the first 9 on my current league a number of times already. Opened the 10th twice. 270+ the other.

Ok. Tonight is bowling night. Last week I totally let the team down. We lost and it was my fault.

I gotta get my release back on track.

I really think I have it nailed down.

I was doing so well and seemingly effortless in the previous 8 weeks or so. So I softened up my release subconsciously expecting the effortless results.

Ya, that's it.
