484 - SWEEEEEEEEP!

Tuesday night league is a money league and as of last night we are in 2nd place. At the end of the night, we are now within two points of first place. What made it a good night is that I totally saved us and almost killed us the last game!

So, I started off in practice on fire. First ball I was tapped and picked up the ten. The next five were strikes. So the first game starts off with a spare...of course. I was throwing the ball well. I actually had a 107 in the 5th frame. My first open was in the 7th and then 8th. I ended the game with a 182. It should have been better. I missed the 5 pin in the 7th. We won that game by about 50 pins.

The second game was a disaster for me. I was struggling but not like Sunday. Actually Sunday's debacle really kept me from stessing...nothing could be that bad. I opened five times though and ended with a 132. Luckily, one of the guys on the team started with the first 7 and rolled a 247. We won this game by 130 pins.

The last game I was just missing but was not losing focus. I had a 60 in the 6th and we were down about 30 pins. Well, I ended up with a 170. I spared the 7th frame and proceeded to throw five strikes in a row. Did that feel good! I haven't done that in MONTHS! It was huge too. We were down about 10 pins when I bowled in the 10th frame. We won by 30.

Thursday I am pre-bowling for the Sunday night league. Hopefully, I can keep improving. I made a few changes to my game last night.
