I'm not old, but my F-in-Law is 88 and still bowls - carries about 175 average.
Working on him to lower his weight to 15 or 14 but he's stubborn about using 16# only . . .
He's got aplastic anemia so his hemoglobin count drops down every two-three weeks and he has to get a transfusion (typically we ask for 21yo virgin blood, like Betty White used to get, but that's getting harder to get . . . ) and then he's right back to himself. I think we've persuaded him to be a regular sub this league. He'll have fun, everybody loves him so he'll always get a slot, and when his counts are low he has no obligation. . .
