Bowling 101

Today was the first "official" day of bowling with all our new equipment and let me just tell you, I SUCK!  I thought that I was pretty good or at least after a couple of beers I was on par with most people at the alley but today I was proven wrong.  I was terrible and though the man at the pro shop tried to convince me that I would have to get used to the ball being heavier and the holes being custom, I am not convinced that I will ever get the hang of it.

Though it is painful for me to do so, I am going to post the scores of the 3 games that we played today in the hope that I will get better and look back on this day as the beginning of something wonderful and triumphant.

Game 1 -
Paul - 127
Me - 74

Game 2 -
Paul - 200
Me - 66

Game 3 -
Paul - 129
Me - 60

So as you can tell I was working my way backwards and Paul did just fine... Well not if you ask him, but from where I was standing, he was doing a hell of a lot better than I was.

Paul did really well - a 200 game! Just keep working on it and don't get discouraged. I'm sure with time and more practice you will be fine. Or maybe you should just drink a few more beers!

Mom is encouraging you to drink? That's a first.

I thought you said that one round you got a 47?

Paul's good. He may not be so much on the Taboo but he can bowl.

I might have had a dislexic moment and mixed up the 74 with the 47 but either way I did not do well.
