I’m not long home from my first night of bowling for the year, and I’m surprised and shocked.
Just prior to Christmas I had a bowling lesson with a friend and my bowling technique, namely my approach was changed. From 3 steps to 4. That may sound easy, but in practice, it’s quite confusing and takes a little getting used to. During the “getting used to” phase it’s not uncommon for your bowling to worsen. Mine did.
Tonight though I managed to bowl 11 strikes out of a possible 12. You could have knocked me down with a feather. That’s a first for me, and I’m still slightly in shock.
The only problem. The one strike I missed, was in the 7th frame, which kept my score to a very acceptable 242, but it does beg wondering, what if that miss (I only got a single pin – ugh!) had happened in the last frame…
Oh well. A great night overall! Let’s see if tomorrow is a good night, or whether it proves tonight was a once off.

It should be” Strike me Lucky ”
well done,
Well aren’t you the clever one. We went bowling with work the other day and I considered myself exceeding well co-ordinated to get a measly 2 (2!!) strikes! Lovely to chat to you the other day. Miss you heaps! Say hi to my squirrels…tell them Melb is a nice place to live….lots of nuts. Love & meows, Miss K xxxxxxx
Awesome, well done on a great bowl. And 4-step process to bowling doesn’t sound easy at all. Especially when I only play with a two-step approach: pick up the ball, throw it down the alley. 😛
