Hello all! Found this site looking for tips on my game about a week ago and after a lot of reading and viewing videos i had to join. Very good site and helpful members made it an easy decision!

Well about me, I started bowling in the urethane days when i was about 11 (i was a Fab Hammer guy;blues,reds,and pearls)and quit when i was about 16-17 when reactive coverstocks just started to become popular(the only reactive ball i had was the teal Storm ball made by HSP; hahaha i still have it in my garage rotfl). Just started back again a year and a half ago after a 14 yr layoff. So far I've bowled one season on a house shot league and two going on three seasons in an unsanctioned pba shot league. And man i am having fun!!! I can't believe I left for so long.

See you in the forums!

Welcome to the community Rizon, and back to this game that many of us love and some of us love to hate at times. I'm currently in the latter category frown . Don't be afraid to ask questions as there is no such thing as a stupid question.
