Hi Everyone! I've recently started to learn how to bowl the right way after my goofy looking 'jazz hands' release (what my buddies called it) did nothing for me the first time in a bowling league. I've been having a great time with it and the game has become more and more fun the more I learn! I'm looking forward to nurturing my newly found obsession with bowling on this site! grin

Welcome Igonto to the site and the sport we all love and sometimes hate. As for it being an obsession, I think that is too weak of a word.

Don't worry about the open mind! After the stigma of hearing 'Hey, jazz hands' for most of the league season, I'm all about learning the right way so I can shake off that moniker! laugh

Hi Puffer! Do you go to the Burnsville Bowl off of Hwy 13? That's not too far from my place, actually! I go to a couple of places in the cities. I go to Cedarvale Lanes in Eagan(a few miles north on Hwy 13 from the Bursville Bowl)for 5 for 5 dollar Tuesday nights and Southtown lanes in Bloomington where I had my league this last winter. I've been meaning to head to Burnsville lanes sometime soon though. What nights are good to hit that place up?
