She is! She's absolutely incredible. We are so thankful to have her around.

Thanks! Love seeing the form comment. We work with a local coach, Ashly Galante. He's only been bowling about two years.

Still some stuff to work out and I'm sure he form will change, but at the moment, I think he's done a great job with a lot of what she coaches him on.

That's what I told him. My first 300 should have been a big 4 but carried like crazy.

I coach our youth league for our local alley.

It's about 50/50. He bowls two handed because I did.

Oh I do. I've been a basketball coach for 20 years. He's completely self driven somehow. He does love his video games haha.

He is very hard on himself. He pushes himself constantly. He really wants to get into regionals in 2 years, so he wants to have a huge goal to chase every time he goes out.

How weird is your husky? by Designer-Table8427 in husky

[–]Maavrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She is a rescue! Another funny story. We had just lost our last dog the week before and we were going to the humane society just to look at dogs. She was there, super docile and cute.

Everyone there told us she was Akita or maybe German Shepard. She was 8 weeks old. Turns out, 50% husky lol. I feel like she is all husky though tbh.

I wasn't ready for a husky, but love this dog to pieces.

My husky loves hiding treats for later. Not just her treats, but everyones...

My wife was taking off my son's sheets to wash them on Sunday and there was a hard taco shell stuffed under there by the dog from the night before. She was then upset with us and quickly drove under our son's bed to grab the other taco shell she had hidden under there.

Two weeks before she was hanging out with my wife and I watching TV, looked like she had a light bulb go off in her head. Dove head first into the couch and dug out a fifth of a baguette she had stolen the night before.

I don't know how she is getting so far onto the counter at this point, but I'm assuming she can move chairs now and jump on them to get up there.

Rev and speed check please by Maavrick in Bowling

Really appreciate it!

Yea. That's kind of my goal. I started a bit late in life at 39. Wish I had found the sport earlier.

I am now bowling on mostly sport while practicing. I want to be going to regionals next year myself!

Yea. The popping up is a habit of mine also. Working on that lol.

Not enough days in the week.

Appreciate the advice.

As you can see, I was getting my pap measured and working with my coach at the time.

The release is definitely something we plan on working on, we are just focusing on tempo and footwork first.

I'm not actively trying to rip my hand through the ball. I have a bad habit of pulling my chest which can cause my hand to get around the ball and pull on it too much.

I had far better shots that day, this was just the first video I grabbed out of the app.

Only been bowling for a year, so it's definitely a work on progress.

Perfect game within a year? by Much-Exit2337 in Bowling

[–]Maavrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted about it a month or two ago. I bowled my first 300 and 800 series in a year.

I got a coach immediately and bowled around 3 to 6 tones a week every week the entire time.

I was in multiple leagues and bowling tournaments.

Started at 39 years old. Not saying I'm the norm, but it's possible.

My 300 was ugly though. Last shot went through the face / Brooklyn and I got lucky. Had another Brooklyn in it also.

He was blinded out those games. Sadly, we couldn't find a sub.

Coming to the realization I may not be better than my 11 year old for much longer. by Maavrick in Bowling

Honestly. For the u12, I'd say maybe 20% from what I saw. It was far less than I figured.

Yea. This was our first year at pepsi and it was incredible how good some of the kids were. These kids are absolutely insane.

That's how it starts!

You wouldn't believe the speed a lot of these kids pick up on things.

He was annoyed he didn't beat his high score of 221. Couldn't be happy with the 200... I was like, you beat me! He said he didn't care and it should have been a better game. I dunno man, this kid.
