off for my weekly attack on bowling pins.  Anyonr else bowl for fun or league?  I have got my average up to 174 and having fun.

We did an Sr/Jr Handicap league this summer & took 1st.

I hadnt bowled a league in 20 years. I started with a 132 Avg, and finished with 131.. Still trying to get that hook to work..

My daughter, on the other hand is the real deal. She bowls for her high school since 7th grade, and is carrying a 210 this season.

We'll be making the trip to Syracuse this year for the HS bowling championships.

I started bowling once a week several months ago. No league or anything, just open bowling. Man am I lousy at it. I don't really seem to be improving at all and each week it looks like I had never picked up a bowling ball in my life. Zero consistancy and crappy scores. There's no damn sight on the thing to aim with.

By the way, just to add insult to injury, my wife started at the same time and has been slaughtering me. She has a natural talent for bowling and keeps getting better every week. She has been averaging in the 140's and occasionally gets a few 180's. meanwhile I'm happy as hell if I break 120.  : 

But it's still fun. I just like throwing things at something and watching the stuff fall down. ;D    Ha-ha, it's just another new trick I'm trying to teach this old dog ......

I havn't bowled in over 20 years . The wife and I used to bowl in a mixed league . Our team was "The fighting Irish" ( McDonalds & Quinns ) . By the end of any season , I never carried anything higher than a 165 average .

used to be on a league... havnt been tho for quit somtime. nice average BTW Bubba

[bubba]

ty on my team I am second lowest average.  However that can hurt when you hve tqo guys with 200 averages and they have a bad night. We get as of last week 31 pins handicap a week. If you arent on, you are not going to win.  We are in 6th place now.  4 out of 5 are lefties to include me.

I used to bowl in 2 leagues but it was to much beer for a during the week to keep those long seasons going. Doc a good way to improve is to pick a board to line up with, then move to an arow, with a smooth straight back swing and follow through.

I bowl friday nights and spare in a league in Thursday nights.  I can seem to bowl without drinking.  I enjoy bowling and can say no thanks when they come around to ask if I want a beer.

Hey bubba,

I to have fun in leagues and might have one drink. I have met so many nice people bowling. If you get a chance to travel somewhere then do,its a lot of fun...Godd luck and keep having fun...Marty

Not in a long time. I think I have bowled 2 times just with the kids in the past 15 years. Before that I grew up bowling. Bowled in tourneys and a couple leagues a week, state champs, averaged in the low 200's. Bowled a 300. Just think I did so much as a kid I got burned out. I also worked in a bowling ally in the mid to late 80's as my step father was a Brunswick mechanic.

Used to bowl in leagues when I was younger.Me and the family do bowl a few times a year just for fun.
