    Smile Hello Everyone!

    I learned to bowl when I was a kid (thanks Mom and Dad for dragging me along to that bowling center) and have bowled much of my life but recently came back from a 10 year absence from bowling. It was supposed to be "hiatus" but things changed and soon 10 years had gone by. Can't take those 10 years back, but I can move forward and started bowling again last fall. Was shaky at first but my winter league ended a couple of weeks ago and I ended up with an average in the upper 180's which I am very pleased with. It's about where my average was 10 years ago but I was using older equipment back then.

    What's in my bag at this point in my "return to bowling"? A Brunswick Slingshot, a Storm "Reign of Power", and a Brunswick Tzone plastic ball for spares.

    Thanks for having this forum! I look forward to reading it every day; some really great stuff in here.

    Rob..

    Welcome Rob. I agree with Jaescrub. You will get as much information here as you want to. Glad you came back at about where you left off, it took me about 3 years to recover after my 20 year hiatus.
