    that is a GREAT ONE!! Bowling with your son!! I am new to the sport, lol,,, just got started 3 years ago! My oldest son is a newbe to bowling this year!

    I talked him into bowling with me on a Monday night league for men! (5 person league) Its a lot of fun watching him do as well as he does.

    He has a starting out average of 177, but has had two weeks in a role of 600 plus games! I think he has the bowling bug now! LOL

    Each of my 3 boys had a Bowling Birthday this last year, getting Balls, shoes, and bags!

    Best money I have ever spent. My middle one will be bowing this summer, on a league, after schools is out, ( he is a teacher)

    My youngest just likes to do the Cosmic Bowling, so he got a Zombie ball, with matching bag, and shoes!! LOL
    I say youngest, in his 30's, a Police Officer Here in my City.

    My New Years resolution would have to be to get the RA in my hands better
    so I can get better at bowling and have more practice time.

    1) Stop using my right hand to eat with during league play. Greasy foods tend to leave my fingers and thumb a little too slick…ball falls off before I want it to.

    2) Concentrate EVERY frame during league play. No more going up, throwing it, then thinking…"aww…I forgot..X" Plan the approach/release while the bowler in front of me is bowling.

    3) Every frame clean. 525+ series minimum.

    4) Be more of a sycophant and not so disagreeable on bowlingboards.com so everyone will like me.

    Okay…well, the 4th one I'll only worry about if I've mastered the first 3.

    My resolution is to shoot multiple pin spares with my spare ball. Except for the double wood spares.

    Good luck with the RA! I was told by 5 RA doctors that I had RA/Lupus! I decided not to go the toxic medication route! Now 7 years later, I have No pain at all at 65!

    The body can do remarkable things if you give it what it needs, and do AWAY with the things that cause inflammation!

    I am living proof,,,, and I have felt better each and every year since I made the livestyle changes, including exercise, supplements, diet, and drinks,,, (no sugar soda at all)!

    If you have a sweet tooth, use STEVIA as much as possible, stary away from aspartame and splenda !

    Its not a quick fix, but it is a FIX!!

    If you have those toxic so called silver fillings, or even a root canal, I WOULD recommend removing them and having them replaced. I did! And now at 65, bowled two 300 games in a 6 month time period!!

    GOOD LUCK!!

    PS... also look into the Tri-Grip if you are having RA problems with your hands! It makes the ball feel MUCH lighter, and comfortable in your hand! Read about it on the net.

    Default And I mean it this year....

    1. Figure out exactly how I want to throw the ball.
    2. Settle on what arsenal I need to carry.
    3. Execute the way I picture it in my head.
    4. At least one clean game each week.


    That's not asking too much...right?
