Bowling

Why does it seem like professional bowlers never have bad days?

Why does it seem like professional bowlers never have a bad day? Well... when I went to a bowling clinic last november there were three professionals there; Diandra Asbaty, Jason Belmonte, and Stephanie Nation. I am a huge fan of all of them but after that clinic I had a different perspective on them all but expecially one; Diandra Asbaty. When I started to talk to her she did not seem like a famous person. She acted like any regular person you could meet at a grocery store. Diandra has a lot of pasion for helping people, you can just see it in her as soon as you start to talk to her. So after I got home from that clinic I went and researched her on the internet. I then found out she had her own website. Need less to say I was on her website for a while. Then I found her email adress and I emailed her and said how nice her clinc was, I enjoyed it a lot, etc. Then we kind of became pen pals but over the internet (if that makes any sense). Then I aked her the same question that so many people have, do professional bowlers really have bad days? Her response was yes. I was shocked by this response because if you ever watch professionals on television there always getting strikes. But the truth is, television is only about one fourth of pro bowlers lives. If you think about it that is true. They have practice, tournaments, family, just like everyone else. They are just normal people with extreme talent. So the truth is professional bowlers really do have bad days, they aren't always shown though.

    Of course they have their bad days but most of the time when they are bowling, my dad taught to be consistant about how I bowl which does work for most people. Also the fact is that they are professionals.

    Well Lexi, I was going to answer this but you pretty much answered it all in your follow up. They do have bad days but you only see about 1/10 of their time on the lanes when you see them on tv. Usually by that time they are having a good week and hopefully peaking for the championship game. Plus they are able to put in several hours every day to build consistency. Although once or twice I did see a pro tank on tv with scores of like 159 and 189.

    The Pro's have equipment drilled to make any pattern look like a house shot, not to mention their gear is straight out of the box which automatically gives them more hook. Then you must look at the time you actually see them bowling. Only one day out of like a whole week. So i hope this helps you.
