Still going...

I did it again. I had another 400 series this week. I know why too: Once I get into a slump, or have accuracy problems, I try really really hard to hit my target. The problem is, my coach always says, is that "muscles are not nearly as accurate or predictable as gravity." So, the harder I try, the farther I get from my fundamentals... In this case a free arm-swing. It's interesting how, as I get better at this sport, that smaller problems in my mechanics/delivery have a larger effect. A year ago, somthing like this wouldn't have changed as much about my game because there was so much going on that was wrong. Like, if you are bleeding from 1000 cuts adding one more won't make much of a difference. I stayed and practiced for a couple hours afterwards and did ALOT better than I did during league. I just hope I can carry the confidence into next week and remember to just let gravity and the ball do their thing. The more I can get out of the way, the better. Fortunately we did manage to take 5 or 7 points as my counterpart on the other team had a rough night as well. That gives us a 12-9 record 3 weeks into the 3rd quarter. We've got our work cut out for us.
