To start off I am 32 yrs. old and just went through 2 back surgeries within 60 days of each other. I had 2 lower lumbar discectomy(s)...basically I had the disc between L4 and L5 explode at the sides. So, the doctor released me in April to start some rehab when and if I feel up to it. So, I joined the gym a few weeks back and have worked on rotational exercises and stretches...I feel GREAT. I was at the alley saturday watching my son and daughter bowl for his bday party and decided to grab a ball and do the ol' one stepper with my street shoes....well, it went well...217, missed 2 10 pins, 209, missed a 10 pin and a 4-9. When I went out last year from my leagues I was a 230+ house hack in 3 leagues (3 different houses). So, have any of you went through something like this? How was the return back to bowling? I just want to come back to the sport I love and be competitive, but am I asking to much, to quick? I was told doing a one step approach puts more pressure on your back than the actual 4 or 5 step approach, any truth to this? Any thoughts, opinions, concerns or constructive criticism is welcome!
Thanks for the time guys & gals....
