Although I understand what you're trying to say I think...you may have worded this a little wrong. Not being a jerk, just making sure you're saying something like, "People with disabilities can achieve their goals with hard work and determination." Because the way you worded it made it sound like it is no disadvantage whatsoever to be BLIND! "doesn't make them any worse off," sounds like you're saying it's no more difficult for someone who can't see. Again, please don't mis-read this as being a jerk, because I'm 1/2 way confident that I agree with you...just making sure.
That being said, this is an amazing feat. I wonder what type of bowler he is. I can't imagine lining up to throw a hook without sight. Crazy.

Yeah its just worded weird I guess. Kind of what Im sayin is like people put down others with disabilities thinking that they can't do certain things because of their disabilities. As to where this shows that they can do things just like everyone else. Its a great story.

Do you really need a target on the lane to throw too?
This guy obviously has the mechanics down and can do it.
You get on the approach and before you throw, everything is "locked in". There is no aiming....just take your steps and throw.

Guy who bowls with one leg in the house I bowl at. In Worlds Archery 3D shoot I practiced at the range with a gentlemen with one arm, he held the release he had made with his mouth, he was VERY good at it too.

Century Lanes had pretty much shut down at that point. No one else was bowling. And everyone had left the bar. They all stood behind Lanes 3 and 4, waiting and watching to see whether Davis could bowl the alley's first perfect game in its 24-year history.
Amazing!

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —

Completely?(see nothing), partially?
WHY....
Because I have trouble conceiving of a person averaging over 210 while completely blind or having a 5 handicap in golf with the condition of complete blindness.
I DO Believe a 300 can be thrown by a person with complete blindness! But long term high level performances for a COMPLETELY blind person I have trouble conceiving of.....AND....I'm a person who sees the possibilities....
