Carry a 185 average, no series under 500.  I came close to no-sub-500s last summer, missed it by one or two weeks.

I also want to carry 160 in my PBA league, so far I'm off to a good start with 201 after a week on Cheetah.  The last sport league I was in I averaged 130.

Average a 180 in the Sport Shot league I'm bowling in.

And as an unlikely attempt, I want to make the cut for JOG. My first attempt at JOG, but I can dream!

On my FRIDAY night we started early about APRIL. On my THURSDAY night about to end but not bowling on THURSDAY just focusing just one league.  On my FRIDAY night my goal is to average 200. Well my wish came true currently this past 7 weeks i'm averaging 202 missed a week and one game cause came in late. So I missed 4 games. But 202 average is my current best right now. So my goal is to keep my 200 game for the rest of the summer. Hopefully will do the same during our fall season.

Goals:
190 average (or better) at the easy house
185 average (or better) at the more challenging house

I should easily be able to get the easy house goal but the other house is so-so.

Most of all I just want to continue improving and have some fun.

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Bowl on PBA experience
read lanes quicker
goal is to average 200 or better
more consistant on release
work on accuracy and ball speed
among many other things...

I will not be bowling this summer due to having a cyst remove from my right thumb of my bowling hand.It depends on what the Doc says.After that I'll be making some changes if any on how I throw the ball.There could be a good chance that the thumb hole may be redone that I don't know until after my thumb heal up.I like to get this done.May 24th at 4:40 pm is when I go.From what I read that 7-10 days after the cyst is remove.Perhaps Sawbones will clarify what I said.

I hate ten pins but love the game of bowling with just the right ball to take them out.

Currently in the middle of my club's summer league on a 37', rather flat but thin pattern. Was only able to make 4 of 7 starts, but I am leading the net cash table because I have been playing very well (almost 200 through 16 games), 20 sticks above my current overall average and almost 40 sticks above my last year's official average.

Well, objective now is to take part in the last 3 starts and keep my positive cash payout. Furthermore, my initial plan before summer league start had been to come out of summer league with a 170+ average and no game below 150, and currently things look very promising
