New High Game
« on: June 08, 2010, 01:02:31 PM »
I had my summer league today and I bowled 90 pins above my average.  Came in bowling a 135 average and threw a 140, 163, and a 192(My new high game).  I appreciate the advice you guys have given me.  I still have a long way to go but I have been improving each week.  Thanks again

Nice job. The most important thing I learned about bowling is spares make the scores. The better you get at spares the higher your average and the more likely you are to still bowl good games even when your not striking. Keep up the good work.

Absolutely correct. A strike is nice (a sreies even better), but consistent higher scores (not only single games) come with filled frames and the ability to avoid complicated leaves with your 1st shot. Keep it up!

Keep working at it man.  

Biggest (and broadest) advice I can give.... make sure you are consistantly locating shots DOWNLANE repeatedly.
