RE: The new bowling technique woked... sort of

in #bowling3 months ago

I should talk to the lanes about allowing us to practice just say... a few frames before we get started. I think that would be fair to everyone, especially me and the others who bowl with a curve. We gotta figure out where the bite is going to be and this is very true for me. My first game score was so terrible because it takes me 4 rolls or so to find the sweet spot.

Sort:  

that is the problem with having no free practice and takes time to get your eye in. Just think if you were on it from frame 1 what score you could achieve.

yeah, it's a very good idea and something that would just happen by default in more established and better organized leagues that are sponsored by the actual bowling alley. At our lanes I don't think that most of the staff even understand how the game actually works and are just there for a paycheck. I've seen one of the pin-racking machine technicians bowl and he is terrible.

If we were to ask for some practice frames I don't think they would understand and might just think we were trying to get something for free.
