Bowling!

For those of you who don't know, I am a huge fan of bowling.  I became part of a league at the beginning of 2010, but couldn't continue because I went to Belgium for a year.  Now that I'm back in Canada (actually this post is being written from Belgium, but I'm only here for a bit this time), I have re-joined the league.

First off, I bought my own shoes.  Then, about 2 weeks ago I bought my very first bowling ball!!  Here it is!

His name is Sheldon.  He's a 13 pound 'slingshot' Brunswick.  His weight block looks like this:




So far, he has performed quite well for me!  On my last Friday of bowling, I got my first turkey!  That's 3 strikes in a row!  Then, I stood back up and threw another one!  I got my first hambone!  (4 strikes!)

Needless to say, I'm excited about my new purchase.  It's very different from using a house ball so I'm glad I bought him!

That's all for now folks!  I guess I'll attach my bowling score chart.  As you can see, I'm not terribly consistent, but I'm just a beginner!  Hope all is well with everyone!
