Remember the days

I used to drill balls at Kmart in the 80's. Only had to watch a video to be certified and trained. Conventional grip only. Glad I never had to throw anything I drilled.

I bought a ball at Kmart, and another at Sears. I had them drilled at a local ball distributor that had a proshop in the front of their building. All my equipment after that has been from proshops or online.

I bought my very first bowling ball -- measured and drilled -- at JC Penney. It was grey/white plastic. That was either 1979 or '80. I don't remember what I paid for it, but I bought a bag and a wrist brace too. Finally tossed the (now mildewed) bag last summer... I don't remember what happened to the ball, though; I kept my "new" AMF S3D Classic in the bag.

Hey! Just remembered what happened to that ball! I sold it to one of the guys on my league in 1981.
