Games

Game 1

Score: 140

Still getting used to my new swing with the elbow in. Rolled 3 gutter balls - 2 of them after spares, and 1 turned into a Clopper spare that would have been a double. Without those stupid mistakes, this could have easily been a 160-170 game.

Game 2

Score: 145

Hit my mark almost every time. Speed and rotation a problem - mostly speed. I couldn't adjust to the lane, either. Finished strong, though.

Game 3

Score: 167

Hit the head pin with every first ball - not allways flush though. Had 2 splits - didn't convert but came close. Finished strong when my team needed it - finished with XXXX8 - but wasn't quite enough for us to win. We lost by 25.

My first week keeping my elbow tight and my swing straight. A little shaky at first, but after that I starting hitting my mark consistently. I struggled to manage my speed and rotation, and I didn't adjust to the lanes breaking down very well. I did well playing the outside, but I need to work on rolling through the oil.

I'm still using the Almighty with the pinky. Carry not too good, but hoping use the Tremor next week. We'll see.

We won 2 out of 3, losing the last game by 25. Steely Meats is almost .500!
