Bowling by Spencer on June 27, 2006
Bowling Blog (a little catchup)
Greetings,
So, I’m going to start a new weekly blog that I had planned to start a month ago, but hey, I’m a bit lazy.
To start, I used to be into bowling in a big way until my senior year in college. The money was tight and I stopped bowling competitively or at all really. In the past seven years, I had bowled maybe 3 times. Starting this spring, I had gone bowling with some friends from work, remembered how much I loved it and the bug bit me again. So, when the next set of leagues came around, I was quick to sign up. The league has been running for about a month now and currently our team is sitting near the bottom of the heap, but that’s ok.
Starting with tomorrow night’s league, I’ll post a running journal of how I did and how I felt about my games. For tonight, I’ll just incorporate a table of how the league has gone so far:
Wk# | Date | Lanes | Gm1 | Gm2 | Gm3 | Series | Avg | Run Avg |
1 | May 24, 2006 | 9-10 | — | — | — | 0 | 0 | -1.00 |
2 | May 31, 2006 | 15-16 | 137 | 183 | 144 | 464 | 154.67 | 154.67 |
3 | Jun 07, 2006 | 11-12 | 187 | 162 | 134 | 483 | 161.00 | 157.83 |
4 | Jun 14, 2006 | 13-14 | 151 | 133 | 166 | 450 | 150.00 | 155.22 |
5 | Jun 21, 2006 | 23-24 | 147 | *205* | 149 | *501* | 167.00 | 158.17 |
Game Averages: | 155.50 | 170.75 | 148.25 |
I wasn’t able to bowl the first week due to travel for work, so that week doesn’t have any scores. The * indicates high game/high series. Right now I’m averaging just below 160. Not bad for just getting back into things, and if I’d start making my single pin spares more regularly, I’d be up around 180 or at least up to my goal for this league of 170.
So, there is the current round up of where things stand. I’ll do my best to keep things up to date as I know how you are all sitting on the edge of your seats.
Take care and bowl great!
