    Default What is your motivational music?

    Do you have music you like to listen to before bowling to get you psyched up? Here's what I played last night right before bowling. I bowled 695 but I fell in battle anyway to Mister "fouled for 270". LOL

    I listen to something really chill before bowling...last thing I wanna be is pumped up, since a lot of my game is keeping my timing under control and everything loose.

    Old school trip-hop or some Doves or something like that.

    I haven't tried that yet, but next Monday I will give it a try during warm ups. I think a little ACDC or Metallica will be in order...

    This album has been my go-to for almost anything lately..catchy stuff and helps clear my mind.

    Edit: Didn't notice that was a Manowar video until I replied. They played two nights in a row a few years back here in Cleveland and I still kick myself in the *** for not going.

    Nope. I listen to whatever is playing at the time over the speakers.

    Sometimes…I'll either hum "Hounddog" by Elvis or I'll talk to myself like Dustin Hoffman in Rainman. I know that sounds stupid…but it's actually worked. And I have no idea how.

    Music and bowling don't mix in my opinion, nor can music put me in the mood for bowling. I've never understood people who have to have it.
