For almost a year now, my bowling has been all over the place. I would alternate pretty good and pretty crappy games and couldn’t figure it out. Tonight I realized what I was forgetting to do and I bowled pretty damned consistent after that.
For those interested:
When I release the ball, I need to look directly at the arrow (I had been doing that). I was forgetting to continue looking at the arrow during my release and follow-through. Once I remembered this simple step my bowling got much more consistent. I even got a new high score.
Tonight was also the first time in months that I didn’t have blisters after a couple games. I’m guessing that the lack of blisters has something to do with my rediscovered technique as well.
It was Women’s League Night too! There were 1.5 hot chicks about 3 lanes over, and I’m pretty sure there were more farther down. Dave and I figured that about 11% of women bowlers are hot, and while this may not seem like a lot, the fact that they bowl makes them even more attractive. This makes Thursdays at Madison Square Lanes the perfect time and place for me to meet the woman for my aforementioned “sex on an air mattress with Smurf sheets” plan (see my comment on Dave’s previous post). I love bowling.
I just found out this afternoon that some of the MA students here love bowling, too! I should start a movement to form a departmental league. What a pity that the best name was taken by our soccer team – Bad Assonance.
I haven’t bowled in years, though I expect that I probably still suck
