Having confidence in spare shooting, HELPS you focus. Missing a spare means you lost focus, even for a split second. If you’re not confident, focusing is harder, when you are confident, focusing is easier. Confidence comes through MASSIVE repetitions

Use this spare sheet to practice shooting the 7-pin, 3-6-10, 10-pin, and washout.

Use this sheet to practice shooting your spares. I prefer the order of 7-10-4-6. In one game you will shoot 5 of each.

I shot 100 single Pins the other day. I shot at full racks. I went 7-10-4-6. On the 7, i can’t hit the 2 On the 10, i cant hit the 3 On the 4, i cant hit the headpin On the 6, i cant hit the headpin. My stats: 7 pin | 16/25 10 pin | 19/25 4 Pin | 22/25 6 Pin | 23/25 Total: 80/100 These are abysmal, especially compared to my college days. I knew my spare shooting has suffered over the last 2 years, but seeing these horrendous numbers motivates me to get back to the 95-98% for single pins. I have to get better. Spares, more importantly single pins, needs to be something that even when you have an “off day” you still make em.

118, 153, 147 =418. Pretty abysmal, but I felt bad before league so that's that, I guess. I'm pre bowling the rest of the league or taking the blind since I'll have a surgery next week. All in, today's score had the same effect on my average that the blind would have.
