WARNING....FIGJAM ALERT
« on: March 07, 2017, 09:38:45 PM »
FIGJAM about to commence.....

Well....after blowing out my elbow 10 years ago...I made the decision to instead of quitting bowling, to switch to my other hand. After numerous games under 100 and lots of practice, I finally started to improve a few years in. Nothing more frustrating to go from averaging 225, having bowled 9 300 games and 3 800 sets to go to barely breaking 400 for a set.

Well tonight I finally put it all together in league.....248-300-248=796....needed the first hit in the 10th the last game for 8 and left a 6 pin....oh well.

I wonder how many folks have bowled a sanctioned 300 right handed and left handed? Can't be too many....

FIGJAM ALERT OVER

ALMOST OVER...on edit...I forgot to include that I posted this in the Visionary section because I used an AMB PARTICLE CENTAUR. Yeah, the high load particle ball that is 10 years old. Big thanks going out to MonsterStitch (from here on ballreviews) as I bought it NIB from him about a month ago...punched it out and that was about the 20th game on the ball.

Funny you say that because I sure did put in a ton of time, but just last Friday I bowled so poorly in a tournament I decided to go Sunday morning, took 9 balls with me to try everything, and just sat there and worked on my timing and ball reaction. I ended up bowling 11 games and then later in the day on Sunday I went to a different bowling alley and bowled more.

Next time out....300....so yeah, practice is absolutely the key and not just drilling up the latest and greatest and thinking it solves everything. 

Pic of ball attached as well.
