I wanna go bowling.
I can break it on occasion. I'm usually 120-130
I do OK ~120, but I look cool as fuck doing it.
i like to hit at least a 200 each time i go out.

I think I saw a post months ago in the KF about that. Off L'ville Hwy and P'Hill. I used to go there, until they opened the Red Carpet Lanes off Satellite; less people.
When is the next outing?
not that one... to far for us. the one off spalding and holcomb bridge. plus we know the guy behind the counter there.

Ah ok! That is a nice one. Its a slight ride for me, but for every other Monday its cool.
set an IA bowl meet and ill show
It doesn't even have to be a big meet, plus i suck at planning things.
I go bowling alomst every 3 days, lol.
I once got my dick stuck in a bowling ball. My average was in the high hundreds before I quit the league that I was in.
around 150+ here
I can bowl
Do I regularly? no
I bowl whenever possible, I bowl around 130-160
2006 Evo IX - Bolt ons
I haven't bowled in 6 months or so, but I averaged around 180 or so. I enjoy it a lot, but I think I have bad technique or something because my fingers hurt a bunch afterwards and maybe a day after that....
3 leagues, wow! Hey I need a new ball and shoes. The one I had cut for me in December is proving to be wrong as hail. My thumb hole is to big, forcing me to tighten to hold the ball. What specials do you guys run up there?
Do you give pointers and tips?
I avg around 160-180, but I know I can up that with the right sizing.
we do a ball, bag, and shoe deal for 124.99
includes a storm single ball tote(we just have the storm stuff in stock right now)
39.99 pair of shoes , i think its mostly dexter
and your choice of make and color of any 3pc poly we carry
(white dot, tzone, maxim(sp), sports tec)
my boss mr dan bearden gives lesson anytime through out the week for a fee im not to positive on, im not and idot so i can help to some for the free haha
i also guarentee a ball that fits your unique hand with no issues
we do all custom fitting ect...
Awesome. I will definately make a trip up there. The last place that "custom" fit my ball did so, but I don't think he was to good with fractions, lol.
haha my boss who trained me has been doing this since 1977 so you sir are in good hands
but if you come in im the young kid and hes an old man haha 10 to 1 ill be the only one there so dont be shy let me know your from ia haha
we are also open from 4-8pm sunday-friday and 12-4 pm on saturdays
been bowling in leagues since i was 3. i was up to a 210 average but i stay around 180-190. just not to long ago i almost shot a perfect game. i was so pissed. lol
i hold a league average of 206. And I shot a 289 last week. I consistantly shoot 600-700 series in 3 games. =) No 300 ring yet but im working on it.
and airmax if you would like from one audi owner to another i can give you some pointers on the lane if you would. =) for free... no need to pay someone!
My company has a sunday bowling league in stars and strikes off of 316. but i dont bowl in it. b/c well i dont like there lanes.
I am quoting this and holding you to it! Thanks alot! If I can get in the 210-250 range consistently I'd be stoked.
I went last night and rolled a 180. This ball is not good for me at all.
i didnt read that much into this thread but what kinda ball are you shooting and what kinda bowler are you?? Or do you know. =)
Stroker style, but as far as the ball goes, I do not know. It was a gift this past Christmas. It was from Sports Authority; not to sure how those measure up to other balls.
School me?
oh god thats more then i ever want to write out. I have like 6-7 bowling balls that you can throw and see what you like. If your a stroker you should be along the same lines as me... So we can meet up some time and go. I like to practice at brunswick lanes off 29 on sunday mornings if your up to it. I get up there around 10-11am. ( i wont be up there this weekend though, i have to work at my brothers house.)
Yeah, but I like to aim high, lol. I figure I am in the 160-170 range with a fubared ball that hurts my hand, technique that has never been critiqued, and a shitty pick up that there HAS to be room for improvement.
My pickup has gotten better, but needs more work.
oh of course, there is nothing wrong with aiming high haha
a proper fit and ball match to you will improve your game alot imo
and there is allways room for improvement
well i can give you an ok breakdown of coverstocks to help you out some
i dont know if your looking to lern about the game its self or more of the tech behind it
as far as coverstocks go you have a few differnt types
reactive perl\solid
particle(sp)
poly (plastic)
those are just the main ones i think you shoudl know about
now the reactive coverstock is going to give you more lenth with backend the reactive solid will read the lane a little sooner but still give you alot of leth for a soil factory dull ball
the particle balls tend to roll alot earlier out of the box give you more of a mid lane roll and not be affected by the over\under or carrydown as much beacuse it reads the lane much earlier
poly= whitedot or houseball 3pc core comes in all weights your average (beginer ball)
as far as advice and watching people im not tooting my own horn or anything but if you want i can come up to the shop a little early one day and anwser some questions you have more indeptch since i would have teching aids and if you wanna watch my goofy ass throw the ball your also more than welcome haha
and "hooking" the ball is all about release and what kind of ball is in your hands
yes the lane condition also matter but youd prob wanna focus more on they type of equipent your throwing and how you roll the ball learning patterns will come later
Yeah, I have a lot of learning to do on the technicals.
if you have any questions reguarding coverstock\symetrical\asymetrical cores let me know im pretty well versed in all aspects
and the technicals of the ball is onl;y about 50% of the game imo
your the other half you approach release backswing foward swing plant slide floowing through picking spot being able to adjust with you feet right of the bat being able to read the lanes knowing when a coverstock is going to be to much and burn up through the heads
sorry for the run on sentance haha
I am not sure what to ask exactly. I am reading http://www.tenpinbowling.org to get a better understanding in general. It's a pretty good site thus far. Not really indepth, but you can learn a little.
I'm always at the lane asking people questions and watching peoples approach and release. I can't hook for crap, lol.
That's the info i was looking for!
So, since I am in the market for a new ball, the type depends on me? ...or is there a combo that people use; reactive as a main and particle for pickup. I want to do it right this time, lol.
I am going to make a trip there soon.
