Thread: Other hobbies?

  1. #1

    Default Other hobbies?

    What are your other interests/hobbies besides bowling?

    I've always enjoyed bowling but would only go 1-2 times a year. Been getting more into it the last few months. New ball, shoes, etc. Now with coupons I bowl almost every weekend.

    My other interests are photography, volleyball, and auto detailing.

    Yes it is. People take it serious. Go to autogeek.net

    Many enthusiasts. Some call it profession/hobby.

    Polishers, waxes, coatings, etc. Got to keep a car nice and shiny.

    Absolutely! Not for me, but my brother is huge into Auto Detailing spends probably thousands of dollars every year on it and will create his own equipment to make detailing his car easier. If I ever need my car washed I'll just go visit my brothers place, he'll see how dirty it is and jump to cleaning it without anyone saying anything about it.


    My other hobbies would be Archery, Riding and working on my motorcycle, video games, woodworking (specifically pens and other such objects on my lathe).

    Golf and volleyball (spring/summer leagues are getting ready to start!), movies, tech. I'm concerned that I don't have much more available time for another hobby, but bows/archery has caught my interest recently.

    For me, aviation, playing music, reading, antiquing. Besides bowling, that is.

    If the type of archery you're interested in is target shooting and not hunting I'd say it's as pick-up-and-go as bowling is. You can get by with just a cheap recurve/compound bow and some arrows. Heck you don't even need a specific place to do it, just find a clear open space with 20 yards and start shooting. It's great fun.

    Yep, it's expensive. I cringe every time I see someone using the brushes at the car wash to "clean" their car. Not knowing how bad they are scratching it.
