I got the itch...again!

I agree with the "feeling." I had really stopped bowling except for the occasional night out for about fifteen or more years. I had spent a great deal of time as a kid and growing up around bowling alleys.

Then last year my sis bought me a chicago bears viz a ball as a gift, more so for the novelty and i had always mentioned wanting one. Well i went to get it drilled and while i was there in the pro shop i was thinking how much i missed all of this. I bought a copperhead that day too and next thing you know i was off and bowling about 5 times that week and pretty much havent slowed down since. Love it more than ever.

Wait a second, you live in Texas and you're a Bears fan? What, no 'Boys, "America's team?" They try hard down here to convert me to being a Dolphins fan, but I fight them off in favor of my hometown team, da Bears.

Gator, where do you bowl? We're from East Hickman...bowl in Dickson mainly, but Ebonite has a nice house in Columbia, with CATS, even!

Well, I finally did it! Man did it feel good to knock down some pins (even thought my knees are now telling me something a little different). I took your advise and cleaned up my old equipment and hit the lanes. My lovely bride also took the plunge with me. The 1st game I wasn't trying to hit anything, just getting loose (and it showed 96 to my wifes 158). She was concerned I might lose my temper...who me! Not to worry, 2nd game started with 2 10 pine misses, but hit the pocket, then 6 in a row...I LOVE THIS GAME. Ended with a 226 and now I really have the fever.

Thanks again for all the feedback.
