Practice
« on: January 01, 2004, 06:02:33 AM »
Just wondered how many out there practice? I used to practice a little when I was younger. I bowl three nights a week and sometimes tournaments on weekends. I don't have the time or money to practice.

Get some part time work at a bowl baby

Can practise as much as needed without the cost, also gives the advantage of getting to know the mechanics well, which means they are often willing to drag and oil a set of lanes just for you!

Working at a bowling centre rules, oh apart from the work and those pesky league bowlers :-p grrrrrr

I don't need to practice - I bowl on a wall!

I rarely pay regular rates for practice.  I go on Wednesdays when I can pay $6 and get a lane for 2 hours.  I can usually get 12-13 games in during that time.  Other days I pull out my PBA card and get games for $1/game where ever I can get it.

I also work part time at my home center to pay for my little "habit".

If horse racing is the sport of kings, then surely bowling is a very good sport as well.

You don't know how lucky you are!!! try coming over here its £4.oo($7.17)-£4.50($8.06) a game! Infact most bowling stuff works out dearer in pounds than dollars so if you take in to acount the exchange rate every thing is big mony.I've just paid £190 for an X-Factor thats about $340.68 when it's only about $149 dollars.(Any donations welcome LOL)

I guess I didn't realize how well I had it here in the States.
