break 200 in bowling

I tried my hardest today, but left 2 frames open and my strikes were not consecutive. I am learning a lot though, experimentation in your throw is key. I found that how you turn your wrist and where you let the ball hit the ground are very important in how much curve you will have.

I’ve been bowling since the beginning of this school year, on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. So for bowling Wednesdays and Fridays, I have seen a great improvement over about 6 weeks. I went from trying to break 100 the first day to trying to break 200 right now, my highest so far is 172 with an average of about 140.

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.

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

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! :)

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!

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 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! :)

i go cheap bowling with my friends,
they are good
i dont break 200 ever
i am lucky to get over 150
i think if i had my own ball i could do better
the ones there don’t fit
hmm
i should make it a goal to get a ball…
