"I'm not a doctor, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night."


It may just be muscle fatigue, so you might try the normal things for muscle aches and pains.  If it's limited to one particular center, are their approaches more tacky than another place you might bowl? 

There are tons of possible causes, including your own body mechanics.  If it persists you definitely should find out the cause and potential remedies.

Possible hip flexor strain.  I went through this a couple of times, and it only bothered me bowling and climbing stairs

I suffered with this for a long time. Forced me to drop down in ball weight. This helped but did not resolve the problem.  Then, I figured it out. I was not sliding straight and was twisting as I slid basically torquing my hip joint.

Post your shot. Check to se e of you are sliding with your toe pointed at your aim point.
