going to try to bowl ....

[foreverincamo]

Well, it's been nearly two months after my work accident, and the doctor doesn't think I'm going to get back to 100% ever again, so I may go throw a few shots today. I may use a 10 pound alley ball to warm up with, and then try some slow shots with my 16 's. Need to get back out there before I forget how to do this!

I made it through 1 1/2 games today before I ran out of gas. The funny thing was, my family rolls in with 9 balls for four bowlers,looking to get in some practice, and the whole place was set up for Lunar Bowling. Since all I was worried about was whether or not I could even throw a ball, doing it in a disco was fine .
I started with a strike, then threw 7 straight 9 counts before striking again. Second game was all marks thru 6 frames, then I just packed it up. I know my limitations.
Still, just normal pains physically. I have a bad migraine as I do every day, but I'll live .

Best of luck. Just take it easy

Mighty glad to hear your back on the lanes. Hope you continue to heal up.

Thanks everyone. It was fun bowling with the family. We bought a package where we can all bowl 2 games every day for the summer. Can't go everyday of course, but we can now go more since I can bowl.

Good deal ! Glad to hear you were able to get back into action, a little bowling is good therapy, I got a similar package with "kids bowl free.com", one of the local lanes is participating, the kids get 2 games free and so do I! All I had to do is pay a one time charge for the summer of 19.95 for a family upgrade, what a deal !

It's good that you know your limits!

This reminds me of an incident from years ago when the contractor I was working for was recovering from back surgery. I was doing some work around his yard one day when he came out of his house, (while his wife was out shopping), kicked a milk crate over to his van, used the milk crate as a step to get into the van, and drove out of the driveway. He returned about five minutes later and white as a sheet. All he said when he got back was," Don't tell my wife, but I had to know if I could still drive."

Glad that you found out that you can still bowl!

Excellent to hear you're back. Good on you to take it easy and not re-injure anything

Thanks everyone. I'll try again in a few days. I went and watched my buddy bowl on the Scorpion pattern in a sport league I was going to be in until I got hurt. Was fun watching some really good bowlers struggle on tough conditions on wood lanes. Really miss being competitive. It's going to take all summer to get back where I was .
