Have you ever had a bowling inury?

[Drano]

I once ruptured my bicep tendon, I was out of bowling for a week or so. It was way back when I wasn't using my thumb and was rather new to bowling, using a 15lb(probably then too heavy for me) ball. I just went up to throw it and heard a snap, and had pain in my bicep..

Ouch. Doesn't sound fun.

I've stuck at the line and rolled an ankle, tried too hard to go around the ball and popped my wrist, and severely strained my right butt muscle.

Worst injury so far has to be the tendinitis in the right elbow. Bowled left handed for a year to give it some rest. Other issues have to be the knees (not much slide and a lot of torque being high rev) and the lower back for the same reason. Have bowled through many injuries from other sports and that is never fun. And you just aren't a bowler unless you have drilled yourself in the ankle. Haha

Was frustrated one night at my ball reaction, so I started lofting my 16lb ball out to the arrows and it worked!! I started getting strikes!! but after about the 6th strike, it felt like someone stabbed me in the back with a knife!! I could not bowl for the rest of the week, and still had to take it easy for about a month afterwards. I learned not to do that with a 16lb ball ever again. I don't know what I pulled in my back but it hurt really bad.
