Hey guys, new member from Atlanta. I'm 24 years old, and have been bowling for quite some two fingered but recently got serious. Trying to learn how to bowl with 3 fingers now which is extremely stressful. Out of my frustration one night after practice, I googled "bowling forums" and made my way here. Been bowling with 3 fingers for a few months now, and no improvement. I average about 130~ and still working on my release. My arsenal consists of a Brunswick Wild Card and a Brunswick Teal Rhino Pro. The Rhino Pro was my father's and he gave it to me when he heard that I was trying to get serious with three finger bowling. Thanks for reading, and hope to learn a lot and grow with this community.

Every month they have been giving away a free bowling ball. Just keep posting, and the more you post, the better chance you have of winning....right, Trex? lol

Oh wow, so the drawing ends at the end of each month? Also, each post counts as an entry or something?

Thanks for the encouragement Mayor! I'll admit I've been so frustrated sometimes that I've thought of going back to two fingers, or even going Belmonte style lol. I just can't seem to get my release consistent and my revs don't seem to progress at all. I'll post this up in the general discussion section or the tips/strategy section and see if any of the community has any tips for me.
