Your goals for the year?
« on: January 11, 2004, 04:16:40 AM »
Well for me, im starting to travel around australia again bowling seriously, so i wouldnt mind making MOST of the cuts, and a couple of top 3 finishes would be good. Bowling 1 league, at a moderatly difficult center, i aim to average at least 205, and win the league with my doubles partner.

What about everyone else?

good luck and high scoring

My goals...

1. Increase knee bend
2. Increase consistency
3. Practice on harder shots

If I can do those 3, I think I have a chance of completing some other mini-goals, like shooting a dang honor score

First of all, this is a good topic. I think more people should respond.

1. a more solid physical game
2. versatility
3. 99% single-pin spare conversion rate

Well I just got a new ball(Hammer Blade), so...

1. Increase consistency  (was pretty inconsistent first league night using it)

2. Help my team win the 2nd half (we won the first half)

3. Get a few more 600's (I have only one this year, but this is my first year bowling...)

after the start I've had, and all the changes I've been thru.........I'd like to:
1. BIG LOFTY GOAL....book another duece like last year.
2. Maintain my 197-8 I have now
3. Don't get down on myself so quickly..better overall mental game
4. KEEP LEARNING and NEVER give up !

1. Make more time for practice.
2. Break the OR state record for high women's series (815 - mine is 811)
3. Shoot at least two legs of a 900.
4. Make high women's average in town this year.

Oh, yeah. The biggie. IF we start having regionals again in the northwest - my FIRST regional title.

I would like to be a better father to my kids that are getting older and need more of my attention.I just don't feel like I spend enough time with them or the wife.Its not bowling that puts a strain on my family but my work and wifes schedule always conflict each other.When I am bowling my family is right thier with me except for travel league.I believe after this season I will probably cut down to one league and see how that goes.

As for bowling goals I would like to cash in a few more tourneys and bowl in more for sure.Rededicate myself to perfection.
