When a Track ball doesn't work: Give it to my wife, and...
« on: February 13, 2009, 06:17:08 AM »
...watch her roll off five out of seven weeks of beating me (handicap-adjusted) with it.

Solution Power Plus EX that I liked originally, then turned into an over/under monster. It was 14 pounds, too, and I've pretty much stepped back up to 15 and 16 full-time now that the wrist is better, so I figured what the heck. It ended up plugged, redrilled and under the tree at Christmas.

She's been bowling with a Roto Grip Silver Streak SE and with her low ball speed and above-average-for-a-female-league-bowler revs, was having problems keeping it on the lane, so I figured her having a PPEX polished up would be a good change of pace.

I just have one problem now -- how to get rid of all this gloating I have to hear about after league. (g)

  Jess,

  If I gave my wife a used bowling ball for Christmas, she would probably give me a bowling ball enema soon after.

  Regardless of what else she got, just putting that under the tree means you should have to listen to her gloat. And be happy that is all it is.

I've definitely created a monster. She's up to five balls (actually just two her other three are 12 pounds and aren't used anymore), the shoes, the bag (pink -- shock me, I know), lessons from Ron Clifton at last year's gathering, on my state tournament team the last two years, etc. etc.
