Nowhere near 18 months ago

I went bowling again last night with Lizz, JonP, and Dave. I managed to get a top score of 112 and a second score of 100 exactly. There were only 3 frames where I failed to score 9 or 10 pins, but I also managed to not get a single strike.

All I need to do is turn these 9s into 10s and the 10s into strikes, not spares, and I should be approaching the score.

When I got home I played on Wii Bowling only to find that even with 3 strikes in a row I only managed to get 190. 200 points is a long way from where I am right now.



Looking forward to tomorrow 18 months ago

Should hopefully be going bowling tomorrow. I don’t know if I’ll be any better, or if it was just luck a couple of weeks ago.

Looking forward to finding out though! :D



120 19 months ago

We played 3 games on Wednesday night. I got 97 in the first game, 120 in the second, and somewhere around the 100 mark in the third game. Much better than the week before.

I spent a bit of time reading through some tips for good bowling. I’m developing a technique. In a few months I might not be terrible any more! :)



Going again tonight 19 months ago

It looks like Wednesday night bowling may become a regular thing. I hope so. Then I stand a chance of achieving this goal in the next 10 years!



Oh dear 19 months ago

I went bowling last night and I just couldn’t get it together. I ended up with two games of less than 100. This is not a good start!



I'm an average bowler 20 months ago

I can score somewhere in the region of 130 quite often, but I don’t think I’ve ever topped 170. I really want to break 200 because I don’t think it’d be that difficult if I got my technique down.

It’ll be fun (although expensive) to try! :)
