    The last 2 times I bowled was on my resets in Vegas at the Orleans Casino.
    Nothing like waking up early on my day off and drinking a few beers and bowling.

    You do realize you’re not supposed to “toss” them, right? ;)

    I am well aware of the poor word choice. In Deaf language to toss is the exact movement required to get a ball on the wood and gone properly. To throw is to go over the head which would damage the wood too much. I picked toss as the closest word.

    Im not a pro bowler by all means, just average. But I blame that on father who sometimes took us kids bowling on a sunday where we might have done well in church when we were very small.

    I have not done any bowling last few years while assessing what damage has been done to the bones. I would hate for a breakage while bowling. But this year Im going to redrill that bill and take a pound out of it or trade it for a new made to fit and weight. Probably a 11 light. Which is usually a child's ball by weight but it's less of a load on the body when it's out of the hand across the foul line on it's way to the pins. Keep in mind it's going out between 21 and 27 mph at the line so.. there is alot of power built behind it.

    My brother who happened to be a lefty and threw 16's as soon he got big enough to do it in a hook style rather than my straight had work done on his wrist and left arm after it was showing signs of bone stress from excessive over bowling.

    The bigger problem in this area is finding and staying at a alley that is somewhat quiet and still serves good fries and burgers along with whatever you want in the corner bar. That's gotten to be a challenge what with the lasers, technology and music etc. There is still one in Searcy that pretty much fits the bill with one exception, we are in a dry county. A good one is in Maumelle and Cabot. Although Maumelle is the better location food wise.
