"In Sync with The Universe" (The 3/4 Roll Commitment)

Ok.. it's official ....I'm starting over...as far "proper release" and ball roll After speaking with Dannial Cohen, whom advised me that I will have to decide “one way or the other” as far as being either a full-roller or ¾ roller…and not mix it up, I have made the commitment to go ¾ roll…and not go back. I went and practiced Monday, and actually was able to average about 200 for 4 games… including the last game being a “clean” 244…and it was kinda exciting. There was only 1 shot in 4 games th… Continue

Sometimes when you lose, you really win - Realbowlers Match Play

Remember that great quote that Gloria told Billy in the movie White Men Can’t Jump??; “…Sometimes when you win, you really lose, and sometimes when you lose, you really win, and sometimes when you win or lose, you actually tie, and sometimes when you tie, you actually win or lose. Winning or losing is all one organic mechanism, from which one extracts what one needs.” Well…(LOL), hey… I actually experienced that this weekend while bowling at the McNair Brothers - Realbowle… Continue

WC Cleveland thoughts

After 3 games - in the desert of Snellville My fingers - began to turn red After 6 games - in the desert of Snellville I was wishing I was back home in bed…. Three-hundred, sixty-six days ago – I made a decision to try bowling in my very 1st scratch bowling tournament; The WC Cleveland Memorial - Men’s Scratch Singles Tournament. It was quite an experience, as I saw many of the best amateur bowlers come in from around the USA to compete, and it was great experience for myself to see wha… Continue

126

I guess I should have known it was going to be a crazy day when the buzzer went off - to say I fouled… *@^*!!! …what a way to start. See, today I got some of the best “humble pie” ever …with my LOWEST bowling score ever in a competition; 126 at the "Who Got Game (not me) Eliminator" tournament at Red Carpet Lanes. I must also mention that I was NOT bowling on the “typical house shot”. It was a “playable” shot, but it was still challenging (to me). And even though I was warne… Continue

Relax and roll...

It's 2009, and I have made a few changes to my gear...and also my attitude this year; "Relax and Roll the ball" I just got a new spare ball that is drilled with a regular conventional grip...and it (so far) seems to be helping me pick up spares shooting straight. But, the biggest thing that I have seen to help me is for me to take a more relaxed approach to my bowling. No tension...no "grabbing" the ball. So far - it's working-- Last 3 league nights: 683, 756, and 670. Also, I have com… Continue

Today God smiled on me…

Today God smiled on me…and I won the Midtown 4-game Sweeper Singles Tournament I bowled in the Midtown thing on Saturday, and God simply showed me favor… to finally win a tournament this year. I say He showed me favor because in one of my games I shot a 165; and in the other games of 256, 267, and 279 … I was just getting some GREAT breaks, and the pins were just falling. And I saw other bowlers smashing the pocket, but leaving 10, after 10, after 10. So…(LOL), God simply s… Continue

NEW RESPECT for "real" bowlers

I decided to bowl and experience my very first SCRATCH SINGLES Tournament at the WC Cleveland Scratch Tournament Saturday ...and didn’t bowl too good, but there were many others with 220, 225+ averages that bowled worse than me. I must admit, whoa - that it is kinda hard... competing against some of the VERY BEST Amateur bowlers in the USA. I MEAN, I saw many of the same guys that I have been in amazement about their bowling ability… people like this guy Fero Williams… who is bowl… Continue
