Bowling for Money
« on: January 11, 2005, 05:52:10 AM »
I was wondering, who here bowls for the money to make, or who does because they thinks it is fun?

My vote is for the money, I don't think I would ever want to do this if I didnt have a chance to get paid.

I bowled for money to pay for my equipment.  In the past (urethane days), I made enough to cover my equipment and then some.  Since I've returned, I find it more challenging (i.e. more league & bracket bowlers throwing higher numbers) but nonetheless a lot of fun!  There's some action bowlers at a couple of houses I frequent.  Anywhere from $50-500 per man.  Few old-school vets as well

Tonight is a prime example of how I make money bowling.  On Tuesday nights I get into brackets.  Since I average 230+ on Tuesdays, me making a few bucks is almost a given.  It's usually good for around $50-$60 give or take.  I don't hit tournaments because I just can't afford it.
