I knew I was going tough when I left a couple 4 9 splits. Even my son left a couple of those splits and a couple 9 pin leaves for both of us. I even missed a few easy spares.
I made many moves try to get the ball down lane further but nothing seemed to work.
Finally by the 4th game of the day (we only bowl 2 games a week and we were making up for last week). I was throwing about as fast as I like to in order to get the ball down there and still carry. Shot a 234 game. I was explaining to my son this is the only time I tell myself to throw faster, otherwise it is usually slow down.

Yeah, I naturally throw the ball hard and I get myself in trouble when I'm throwing hard AND my feet get fast.
I have gotten a good bit slower from what I use to throw.. I'm in the 17-18 mph zone now..i use to chuck it 20+ somehow.
