With my brother in Brockton for the holiday weekend, we made some bowling time for the first time since last August. If you’ll recall, I usually treat these as a practice session, keying on my release this time around. What was the “Aha!” moment last Saturday was finally figuring out what John Jowdy really means by leading with the ring finger, and, when I do, I do get the extra revolution I need to carry the 10. Alas, though, my complete game wasn’t there, as I was falling off of many shots and throwing across my body on others. The three game score was 518-363, with me just missing my winter league average series and my brother getting a 142 high game to end it.

I started "The Tenth Board" to chronicle my experiences during the road back to league bowling after my heel fractures in 1999 (it took me 7 years before I started thinking seriously about it). I now use the blog as a combination of a personal bowling journal and a news site mostly about Westgate Lanes (Brockton, MA) and its bowlers. View all posts by Rich
