    Default Asian pro league?

    I'm curious - I have been going through a lot of video on YouTube and elsewhere on bowling and have noticed a ton of asian bowlers and bowling. Apparently bowling is very popular in the Asian market and there have been some Asian companies that have started to breakthrough. My general question is if there is a pro Asian bowling league and how it pays out. It would be a neat idea to think that some of our past pro bowlers who have not made the new PBa could possibly turn to this as a alternative like say hockey players and other sports? Just curious about it - what other countries are big into bowling?

    In Korea, there is the SBS pro league. Don't know anything about it, but when I search bowling on my Verizon FIOS, it comes up. It's on a special package for Korean programing, so I don't get the channel. I believe the popularity of bowling is growing in Asian markets. I think they really dig the two handed thing.

    Bowling does seem big there. There is a Japanese women's show called P-League and you will find excellent bowlers there.
