I've been having a really nice season so far this year. Average is up to about 207ish. Threw a 655 on Monday. Goal is to remain a "scratch" bowler in the league (>200).

Conditions are pretty dry through the first 6 week or so. I've resolved to just move over and throw it harder, which has helped with my strike rate quite a bit, likely because of the sharper angle and increase velocity. Team has been struggling some though.

Had a few weeks off due to work and illness.

Back at it again lastnight with a very nice 644 series. Team took 3 out of 4.

What kind of steroids are you taking, @dlew?

760 tonight. 289, 247, 224.

On the 289, I struck the first 10. Second ball of the 10th, I can hardly stand. Legs are jello. Crowd behind, trying to catch a glimpse of immortality. I fire it down, BURY IT. And there it is, a tough luck, stone 8-pin. Heartbreak.

Had the 800 still in play through about the 5th frame of game 3. All in all, new high game, new high series. What a rush.

636 lastnight. Nice number but a little disappointing given that I had a 460+ after two. Left a pocket 7-10 in my third and caught a few more tough breaks (including a missed 10 pin).

Thems the breaks!

Company bowling today at the local alley. It's apparently a big deal. The owner of the company shows like every other year and will bowl with us. Will be hilarious. It's also like a legit competition that they give big prizes for will report back with our stuff.

Finished the season at 202. Got the prize for high series (766) and high game (290).

Team and handicap version of that basically, plus high season average individual/team.

Had perfection going until the 9th last night. Bad miss...hit way too light and left the 2-4-5 bucket.

One of these days!
