Yes, I know it's low, but for someone like me who's been bowling for just a little over a month now, a 146 is pretty good. Been slowly improving. Still adjusting my release, ball speed, and rev rate. First two weeks, I was bowling 100's and lower, mainly because I couldn't stay focused, and barely knew what I was doing. Now, I'm blocking out the distractions, finding my target, aiming for it, and letting loose. I'm hoping to break the 200 barrier before the end of the school year. Since my first game/series, I've easily brought my average up 15-20 point. 111 may not seem high, but for someone who's been bowling for such a short period of time, I consider that okay. I'm proud of my 146.

EDIT: If you checked out my bowlsk profile, the 162 game, was me muckin' around just heaving the ball (did retarded crap that game...not even sure why I scored it). I don't consider it a legit score to consider as a year/career high. My 146 is my legit year high.

True that. When I hit 146 I was like...nice. Year high. I'm impressed. I'm working on the aiming part at the moment. I've got the release down, just need to start hitting my target point over and over and over again.

Speaking of 150...I scored that in my...8th practice round today. Was a horrible round too. 5 open...2 spares...4 strikes.
