I still have a couple of weeks before league meetings...and I am undecided about whether to bowl at all. I've bowled a total of three times since I got back from Wichita, and the hand has hurt all three times (and still hurts more than two months since I last picked up the equipment). I'm not real thrilled with the prospect of going under the knife to remove the offending bone fragment...I'm too old to want to deal with rehab.
When I had first broken the hand eighteen months ago, I toyed with the idea of switching to left-handed and even went so far as to get a pair of SST V's so I wasn't stuck using house shoes. Most of my equipment is drilling relatively mild, including some with the pin in the track, which lended itself to a little stronger LH drill.
For those that have made the switch in earnest, not just a goofing-around-at-glowbowl, how long did it take to reach a level to where you felt proficient?
