Hello all. Just thought Id stop in and do the intro thing. I recently got back into bowling after a few year absence. I was very heavy into bowling at one time but really lacked resources and information to pursue the goals I had, but I was bowling a lot and was around 40 games a week if not more depending on work and such.

Now Im bowling again, not quite as much practice time at the moment. Probably around 20 - 25 games a week. But Im also taking coaching lessons from a USBC Certified Silver Level coach and am currently in a PBA Challenge league.

Im enjoying it a lot, frustrating at times cause I want to be progressing faster than I am but I'll get there one way or another. Im on a couple other bowling forums and try to stay involved as much as I can.

Welcome, and we're glad you're here. My wife and I really love your avatar. We both laughed at ourselves with that one. I hope everybody gets to check it out. I've been to Tulsa a couple of times, but that's the only times I've felt the wind come whipping down the plains. I think you'll enjoy it here.

Now that's funny! I didn't know there were any Florida natives anyplace else. That's OK, when you get older you'll have to move back as it's the law. You know, it's either Florida or Arizona once you start wearing your pants too high, etc. I got a head start, myself!

Welcome StormStrikes to the boards, I lived in leesburg for 10 years I know the slow life

Mr Bill, and probably kev3inp as well may know, then, the small podunk town I come from then. I am from Umatilla. Say that three times fast, LOL.

I was going to say something to the effect in my earlier post about being a rare Florida native but thought some may take that the wrong way, so I resisted. As for moving back, my pants havent move up so much as they have out, so Im not sure if I would be accepted if I did come back, LOL.

All my family still lives down there. Im the lone black sheep that left the fold. In fact, me and my wife are planning to take a vacation in the very near future and head back down there.
