Bowling fun!

Out bowling with Jamie!

I'm sucking rather badly.

Game 1 I got a 24. Jamie and Shari totally beat me!

Game 2 I currently have 13! :-/

But having so much fun!

So that's what you were doing on your phone! Ha!

I had a theory about how to improve your gameplay but didn't know if you'd want it, so I didn't say anything. Would you have wanted it?

sure! I'll take any advice on how to improve.

Okay! *whew* Instead of walking up to the line and stopping, then pulling the ball back and throwing, do that mid-step. I think part of the problem is that you're losing momentum and having to create a lot more by just standing there. So drop your ball back like a step before you get to the line, then release the ball. Since you're right-handed, you want your left foot to be forward. It'll be a bit more natural, once you get used to it.

Oh, and lining up with those dots back by the ball drop helps too. It gives you a straight line to walk towards, and those arrows help aim your ball. I know that my ball doesn't always end up near where I think I'm aiming, but that's probably because my body moves away from my arm. I need to work on that!

I learned this in a bowling class, and that helped my game a lot! I sucked before I took those 3 semesters :D

No prob! And good luck! I'd love to hear how it goes.
