No more changes?


Solo practise late this afternoon. Hoping for a clear sign the upright stance is delivering results. But the first three of eighteen ends on rink two tell me its not working. One bowl three feet away, eleven bowls nowhere. How about going back to the crouch style?

Wow! Two right up to the jack, another within two feet. Consistently getting bowls very close. The second session on rink 4 just as good. The overall results may not have exceeded the 50% of bowls within three feet, but there's a big improvement within one and two feet. In half or more of the ends at least one bowl was right up to the jack. In the second session 83% had at least one bowl within two feet. That's certainly competition-winning form.

Started my upright delivery about the end of May 2018. Since then, not had particularly good results. And never had so many bowls within one foot. Maybe should have stuck with the crouch style that got me into three finals last year.

Here's this evening's scoresheets.
