Gee, Bones. I guess I'll return my card to the PBA since I obviously can neither adjust nor bowl. Gosh, and to think all of this time I've been deluding myself.
Personally I find your posts about lefties offensive. I'm a freak. I'm a wrongsider. I'm an incorrect bowler. I can't flatten my wrist. I can't this. I can't that. Or so you say. Personally, what you say has been rendered completely meaningless by your obvious biases. You are now on my list of people to avoid getting information from, no matter what the topic may be. I would also be willing to bet that I could beat you throwing only one ball in my arsenal and I'd let you choose the area of the lane I would play between first and fourth arrow.
But you wouldn't take that bet, because you won't bowl on the same pair against a lefty.
What caused you to develop these sad opinions about other human beings? Were you one of those left-handed people who had his left hand tied down so you were forced to use your right? Did some lefty hand you your gluteus in a megabucks tournament some years ago?
Let me tell you something, sir. I bowl a qualifying squad in a PBA regional with a herd of other lefties. I switch lanes every game. I have to make my adjustments and make them quickly enough so I don't get blown off the lanes by the rest of the bowlers out there. I have good games and I have bad games, just like every other person out there does, on both left and right sides of the lane. I've bowled in 2 regional events on two different patterns and cashed both times. You?
I believe once you get over your personal vendetta against left-handers you will stop getting your butt kicked by them every time you lace-up to bowl. Free your mind, and the rest will follow, I believe the old song goes.

NutAnd there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Luke 2:8-14
