Thread: Hello

  1. #1

    Default Hello

    Hello everybody, I've been kinda lurking this particular forum for a little bit reading other's experiences and trying to learn. I'm fairly new to bowling, only been doing it for 2 years now, and jumped in head first! My average is considerably low, and I am very competitive with myself always wanting to improve my game. I started off a year ago by pushing the ball then I began experimenting with throwing/ rolling the ball. Throwing the ball was a challenge for me at first, but now I'm getting the hang of it, and putting up more consistent numbers (now only if I can learn how to make the 10 pin CONSISTENTLY or better yet not leave it at all lol). I still mess up and throw across my body quite a bit, but hey I'll get over that hurdle eventually I believe. I bowl to have fun, and also to do something physically and mentally competitive that I have to actually work at to progress. If there are any questions, or if I left something out feel free to ask or let me know!

    Thanks Bill! After checking out this site for a while I've noticed how eager the majority of people on here are to help others and learn at the same time.

    Thanks, I'll participate asking for opinions and advice you can count on that! Might even start posting up some of my scores so at later dates I can come and look back and see how I've progressed since signing up.

    Welcome to the forum. I read about your approach challenges on another thread. Not to sound rude or insensitive but I'm still trying to picture exactly how you bowl. Once I think I have that figured out I'm sure I can come up with some advice and drills for your arm crossing over.
