    Default My Fathers Day present

    Wife went behind my back and scheduled a lesson for me with Susie Minshew. She knew I wanted to book a lesson with her before I went to Reno a few weeks ago, but schedule did not permit it.

    June 15th I will go to Ft. Worth and meet with Susie for a 1.5 hour lesson.

    Susie is a USBC Gold level coach and is author of several books about bowling. Very excited to meet and learn from one of the great coaches of our time.

    Should have a video analysis that she will provide as part of the 1.5 hours, and I think I will task my daughter with filming some of the lesson for me as well.

    As stated, Suzie is one of a select few Gold Level coaches in the country. I first met her years ago when I first started writing for BTM to which she was also a regular contributor. We would talk from time to time, usually when I had a question for her. What a great Fathers Day present. Make good use of your time with her!

    I kid a lot,,, granny,,, If I had your money I might ,,, MIGHT take some lessons myself! I think it was a very thoughtful gift too!!
    Good luck with the lessons! If she allows you to film it, that would be cool!! ice

    I have always believed that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, and lessons can refine raw talent, and in his case I am SURE it will help a bunch!

    VERY NICE GIFT!

    Don't worry. I'm taking a youth bowling seminar Sunday so I can give Iceman some lessons when we eventually meet up. Free of charge.
