I Did It!!!
« on: October 02, 2015, 11:36:28 AM »
I finally shot my first 700 Series last!!  Shot a 267, 199 & a 243 for a 709 series!!  It was one of those nights where everything just felt right.  The approach, the release, everything just felt good.  And the even crazier part, at least from my experience, is that from the first ball to the last, I didn't have to make a single adjustment left or right on either lane.  The only adjustment I made, which was about half way through the second game, and only on one of the lanes, was to move up about 2 inches on the approach.  I kept hitting the pocket but kept leaving the 10 pin  &/or 6-10.

So that's one goal accomplished for the season.  The other is to finish with a 200 or better average. 

Anyway, just wanted to toot my own horn since there hasn't been too many opportunities to do it so far this season.

The first one is always the sweetest! Nice bowling.

It's never bad to be rewarded for hard work and desire! CONGRATS on hitting a goal

Brick, I never met you except here on Ball Reviews, but from what I have read of you, I am certain that you will hit 700.

ab, well done!
