I made my return to the lanes last night. Overall, not a bad night. The first two games were great, then I kind of fell apart in the last game. I had a couple of light hits for splits and missed a ten pin. I shot 246-234-158 for a 638 series. I raised my average up on 203 on Monday night. I look forward to getting my average back up on Thursday night. I'll keep everyone informed on how it's going.

For the past 3 bowling nights, I've been having some issues with my back and right hip. I've decided to take a couple of weeks off, rest and see how it pans out. I'm down to 190 on Thursday night and 202 on Monday night. I'll update on my condition.

I ripped it up tonight. Shot 203-246-236 for a 685 series, my high of the summer. I brought my average up to 208 in the Monday league after 3 weeks. The 246 was my high game in this league and the 685 was my high series. My goal is 210. We'll see if I can keep it rolling.

Well, I started out the Thursday Summer league a lot better. I opened the first two frames, then only had one more open the rest of the night. I shot 181-203-255 for a 639 series. I also picked up the 4-7-10 split to finish the 2nd game. We know how much of a pain that is to pick up for a righty. We're currently 7-1 after two weeks (I missed the first week) and are tied for 2nd. My goal for the summer is to finish one of my leagues with a 210 average. I'll keep everyone posted.

I'm 2 weeks through the adult/youth league now and it hasn't been too bad. I shot 216-177-198 for a 591 series the first week and 170-238-192 for a 600 series last night. I'm averaging 198.5 through the first 2 weeks. Not too bad. Leaves room for improvement. If I could get off that 170 game, I'd be doing great. I start Thursday Summer Mixed this Thursday.
