Buck531 Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Right now he has the highest average over 6 games with a 199.66. That was good enough for put him on the top varsity spot at Gahanna:). Not bad for a 16 year old. I'm pretty proud of him. I know some of you think bowling is a joke, but to him, it means the world to him. I'm glad I got him into something that he can actually be proud of.

Bam Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Congrats, make sure he knows you're proud of him and that's all that matters. I did a little bit of everything in middle school and high school because I didn't know what I wanted to do,lol. Soccer, golf, cross country, football, etc, but it was all good tiems.

Is his average better than yours? -Marc His Saturday morning league though 30ish games was 175 or so. Right now.. yeah.. better than what I'm bowling. For some reason I can't do shit on the lanes. Probably distracted cause I'm working Friday nights and I'm constantly doing shit with my laptop and not concentrating on bowling. Oh well.

ImUrOBGYN Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Sweet! That'll definitelly give him first dibs on bowling alley trim. Seriously, though, that's pretty cool. I enjoy bowling, well, all sports/competitive things. It's nice to find something you excel at that's not only fun but can make you a little money down the road, as well. Hell, he can probably get a scholarship for it. Do they do that for bowling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, he can probably get a scholarship for it. Do they do that for bowling? Yeah there are a few scholarships out there. I think one is $1000 and the other is $500. I remember back a few years ago when he was in middle school his teachers asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. His response "pro bowler". . Last year he was averaging 130-140. Now he's a good 180-200 average bowler. I bought him a new ball this past summer and it made a huge difference in his bowling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Good for him, bowling is a ton of fun. Great sport to do with friends and it's fun whether your good at it or not. Side note- Desales had bowling, but as a club. That may have changed now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
