I am sure Ron will help you with your game.
That said, he is just a fun guy to be around.
Enjoy your lessons!

Be prepared to work when you have your session with Ron.  He's mostly business when he's coaching (still a little BS in there, though).  --  JohnP

I had the privilege of working with Ron last May at a 3 day seminar. I learned quite a bit about my flaws and I learned quite a bit about the mental aspect as well as the physical aspect of the game from Ron. He is all business on the lanes but he does have a great sense of humor as well. You will enjoy every minute working with Ron.

Her thinking is flawed!

Get the lesson,
learn to bowl,
buy MORE bowling balls!!!

Maybe you could justify it since you'll be a much better bowler?

You're trying to stimulate the economy with bowling ball purchases?

Hey, I'm just trying to help out...

You'll like it.  I've worked with Ron on multiple occasions and never fail to walk away having learned something new or applicable to my game.  Your wife is a smart woman...

met with Ron today, he is great.
helped me tremendously with my game
i understand now why he is so well thought of in the bowling world.

wow was i off base before i went in there

i now have a focus and direction to work toward in my game
whereas before i was just kind of like the blind leading the blind

well worth it
learned a lot, and had fun

thanks for the recomendation

hope to see some of you at the gathereing
