What Do U Really Think U Can Avg
« on: March 02, 2009, 07:34:32 AM »
Reguardless of what you are bowling currently and what they say in the books what do you really think you can avg...  I promise I want tell...

Currently I believe I can corry a 210 avg.....

Not sure if that is a good thing -- 2 high to get pins and not high enough to win another big...

What do you think is your true avg...

190.

And I average 190.

No point in playing if you aren't trying.  Right?

To average very much, I would need consistent conditions, which I don't see much of.  If I got them, I think I could make 220-225 pretty easy.

  Never knowing what to expect, which ball to bring, and dropping down to 14lbs, has my average down around 210 now.

 Now, if you're talking sport/pro conditions, it would take a while to get used to the way they played, but I think I could make 200-210 once I figured them out.  Thing is, to do this, I would have to practice much more than I want to anymore, but I could if I had to.

Depends.  I don't bowl on a THS so I'll say 205-210.

Well my book average is only 173(sandbagging and goofing around, don't tell) But i kept my average at the beginning of league at 198 for around 25-30 games

Current average is 194. Highest ever for a full league season was 198. I could probably get back there IF my wrist health holds up for a full year. I bowl probably 1/10 or 1/5 of any given season protecting a twice-operated-on wrist.

I did bowl 212 for 12 games back in the late-90s but it was at a cake house and I was a lot healthier then.

I agree with the 190 guy -- I average as best I can. I won't sandbag and if I'm bowling, whether it's in league or open bowling, I'm trying hard (although in practice I may be experimenting hard).

I have to say 215-220 if not for some of the wrist injuries I've had this past year. I believe with the right discipline and consistency I do it year after year.

Probably 195, but then I'd have to stop messing with my release. Which is something I'm just never happy with.

This year I am averaging around 215 and I have been recovering from a concussion, pulled hip flexor causing pain in my back to the point where I could not bend forward at all and pulled my tendons/ligaments in my middle bowling finger.  

So what could I average?   I am thinking 230's
--------------------
High game 300, 298(no middle finger) 290, 290(no middle finger)
High series 804
High triplicate 774
High average 221
best game. when I was 6 I bowled a 158

I have a 16# morich awesome finish I want to trade.  1 season on it.    I am looking for 15# stuff
