How many of you can......
« on: June 29, 2004, 12:36:06 AM »
How many of you can bowl using your opposite arm?  If so, what is your average?

I can start with the ball in my left hand and switch hands behind my back.  Does that count?

I can bowl with both, but my timing with my left is all over the place.  I "might" average 150 or so lefty???  Never put any time into it though...

our local coach(ty dawson http://www.morestrikes.com/ty_dawson.htm?87,23.. i dont think his achievements have been updated in a WHILE ) avgs 230ish right handed and used to(and maybe still does) bowl another league left handed with an average somewhere in 180-190s(as i was told from one of his double partners/friends)

Last time I bowled a league left-handed was over 20 years ago.  My book average back then was 190.

With today's equipment, it might be kind of fun to give it a try again...

I usually throw in the 160-180 range lefthanded.  I always wanted to see what I could average if I did an entire summer league lefthanded.  My spare making (especially the 7 pin) would have to improve if I actually worked at it.  I might even eventually throw over 14 mph!
