Who here bowls? Do you have a ball and shoes or other equipment? I am looking to get into it. I am going to need a hobby for the winter months in KC. Where did you start?

I LOVE to bowl!! Have my own shoes (ewwwie wearing rentals) my own ball (8 pounds and pink/purple and has my name on it) and my own bag My average is about a 120.
Its a lot of fun, but unfortunately, in southern California, it can get expensive. Gosh, we haven't bowled since we started to golf. Going on over a year now!!
LOL, I'm much better at bowling than I am at golf!! But with bowling, 3 games is my max at a time before my score seems to take a nosedive! Best all time ever score was 178, had a few turkeys, was AWESOME!!! Its not about how heavy your ball is, mine is only 8 pounds and is a little heavy for me, but I sure can knock them down :clapp:
note to self: never bowl with chuck or biggsy, never shoot pool with duey, never drink with thanks, and never be in an enclosed area after oem kevin eats a snickers bar.
And you can just hang out with me then
I used to love bowling. I ended up doing it so much that I got bored of it. 5 leagues a week, sometimes twice a night and practicing when I wasn't bowling and then doing tournaments in between. I got burned out.
I walked away from the game accomplishing everything I wanted but shooting an 800 series. I had 8 300's, huge league averages, won tons of money locally and even cashed in a professional tournament. It was a lot of fun, I just got bored of it and started playing more golf and diving more.
Crucker300 was a touring pro and still owns a pro shop. I sent him the link to this thread to point you in the right direction. In fact I met him 15 years ago through bowling.
I am the consummate internet sportsman!yeah, and you can hit the ball 300 yards too huh?

sounds good GC, although with an avg of 120 you'd be beating me all night long. i'm happy to break 100
In the group I play with, we have an unofficial agreement that if someone doesn't break 100 they shave an eyebrow. So far only 1 guy has shaved an eyebrow, but there are a couple of others that didn't follow the agreement.
that's awesome!! we do something like that to the first guy who passes out. i once woke up with the letter "L" shaved in my chest.
LMAO I just got the funniest visual from that.....

That's where you should go. The pro shop at your local bowling center should work great.I am having a hard time finding a pro shop that is not in a bowling alley. When I lived in Alexandria there was on Duke Street.
