VermontHunter Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers I haven't bowled on a league in a couple years... I messed my shoulder up, and just can't get the speed and rotation needed to compete anymore.... But I do get to go and throw the ZONE for a few strikes every now and then just for fun.... I did hold a respectable 203 average.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrea Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers Yeah, we bowled in a league last year. Just don't have the time anymore though. Got a nice purpley-green bowling ball though with my name in it. We still go every now and then. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowtechsWife Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers I was on leagues during high school. I can't handle the smoke in the bowling alleys anymore. My kids have joined the Saturday morning (smoke free) leagues a few times. It's fun to go and watch them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] The nice thing about Florida is that you can't smoke anywhere but outside, your home and in bars. The bowling alley used to be so smokey I couldn't stand going there. But it sure is nice now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers I bowl sometimes for fun, I was going to get into the winter league here but there was no more openings (5 pin). I'm pretty good when I can slow my arm down enough. Being 6'4", I've got pretty long arms and manage to get LOTS of power behind the ball with little effort. Usually it's airborne until it gets 3/4 of the way down the lane. I think the best I've done is 205-210. I usually bowl between 150 and 175 though. And I don't do it often so I think I'd be pretty good if I could get into a weekly league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IL_HuNtIn_KiD Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers yea...that used to be my problem...was arm speed...im 6'3" but with a couple weeks of working with one of the older guys that kinda took me under his wing ever since i started we had it straitend out but...do u actually have a 5 pin league up there?

[/ QUOTE ] Yup, that's all we got. It is VERY rare to see a 10-pin bowling alley up here. Must be a Canadian thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers Used to when I got out of the service and lived at home with my dad for a year or two. His team needed a guy, so I bowled in that league for two years I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABuckSlayer Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Bowlers This is the first year in the last 9 that I'm not bowling in a league. My wrist can't stand 35 weeks anymore. I've averaged between 209-211 for the last 4 years. I usually start out around 216-220 for the first 6-8 weeks and then my wrist won't let me maintain that. This year I just gave it up. I sub once in a while for my dad but that's it. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
