I used to be a decent golfer and had to give it up due to ill health.
My misses wanted to start bowling again so i went along and after a few weeks I thought Oh well might as well try it as it should be less trouble for me than golf.(less walking)
I started last season and went almost straight into finger tip.
I joined my brothers handicap team and won high game scratch 278 and 2nd place in the league (170 av season).
Started a couple of scratch leagues. Finished bottom of the doubles first year and am about 10th in the (58 weeks)large singles. I started having some coaching at the end of the doubles league about 2/3 way through the singles
Now with a friend we are top of the scratch doubles and Im averaging about 187 ( 5th highest in the lanes)
Ive also been asked to play with the big boys in the 5 man travelling league and join the team trying to win our county cup.
As you say not a superstar, just having so much fun, long may it continue for all of us.
