Today I got my best scores in bowling yet, and my scores were 112, 107, and 121 (my all time best score).
What I did this week was make sure I used the same ball every time for consistency, which was something I did not think to do in other weeks. I also made sure to bowl slowly and carefully and follow through every single time, and learn to stand in a certain place so that way I could send the ball right at the pins I wanted to knock down, rather than always standing in the middle and trying to aim that way. I am good at sending the ball in a straight path, so I used this to my advantage today when trying to knock down one pin in the corner - I am now able to do this WITHOUT sending the ball into the gutter.
I have not had any of the problems I had in past weeks and by now it's definitely a habit to release the ball correctly and not flick my wrist, and I also have become more confident in my abilities and less worried about what the people around me will think. I'm also adapting well to the fact that they put me with a different group of kids every week, and I don't let this make me nervous or intimidated.
My goal for next week is to try and raise my scores even more, and try and beat my highest score of 121. I also still would like to learn how to make the ball curve, but I have several weeks ahead of me to learn :)
