In my Friday night league I bowled 178, 182, 192 for a 552 series. That beats my previous lifetime best of 540. Our team won all 3 games. After 3 years of bowling I decided that I needed to practice more. So for the last few weeks I've practiced 2

Ok, my team in my real-life league needs a good showing tomorrow to set ourselves up for the playoffs... currently we're not that far off the top so with a good series we might have a chance.

You mean Kerrie or something like that? Yeah, it seems like the majority of Team Canada members are from Ontario. I wonder where George Lambert IV lives now...

I found a 1910 photograph of what the very first 5 pins looked like back then. They are rubber ring free. When you see this photo, the pins looks like the very old fashioned bare wood ten pins. This was a Canadian 5-pin bowling team called "Ruhl

there is no one way to create revs or hook. There are multiple ways. old school is to hit up on the ball, which you use a lot of wrist action to do so. new school is to uncup and turn at point of release creating revs that way. The pro's create r

Definitely liked the first set--sweet job, buddy. That's this week's, right? Getting some more consistency going, and you must be happy about that. Way to go besting yourself for the majority of games. Meh on the 4th game. Happens. Probably just brok

I don't lift my leg, though one time I had to do it, since the sole of my break shoe was coming off and I didn't want to damage it anymore. I felt so off balance. The only people I do see that lift their leg are 2 handed bowlers in our league. I j

I own both the Mutant Cell and Cell Pearl. Both balls compliment each other very well. I first use my Vibe to test the lane conditions, then if the lanes permit, I move to my Mutant Cell and man it hits hard! Once the lanes begin to breakdown, I go t

I like to get inside of everybody else on the lane and bump off the track area. It gives you some margin of error, when you can bump off the other payers track area. When you boil it down most people will be playing a similar breakpoint, its just a m

The Fast would be a good choice. It really depends on what you want your light oil ball to do. It sounds like a dumb question, but not all people look at the same ball and see the same thing. Most light oil balls would work fine to me as a medium oil

If your a regular at the alley, see if they can give you a pair that is away from everyone else. Like maybe an end pair. this way you can also go downlane and get a shot from down there. I like to shoot from directly behind, from the side, from a 45

I have used both the PowerKoil and the Robby's Revs II. I preferred the PowerKoil because you can fine-tune your wrist position better and it covers your index finger too. I just recently gave it up and am bowling much better with out. I actually

One thing I think I'm able to take pride in is my ability to focus on the shot at hand. I've gotten better at focusing less on my score, but also when I step onto that approach, nothing except executing this shot is important to me. So good job on
