1) How good do you have to be to join a rec league? 2) What is the standard operating procedure for joining one? 3) Is it typically a lot cheaper per game to bowl in a league compared to doing it during open bowling? [/ QUOTE ] 1. Anyone can join. 2. Go in to any Bowling center, ask for leagues looking for individual bowlers, and join a team. Really easy. 3. No. It typically costs $10-18 a night to bowl in them, but a good portion of that goes to a prize pool for the end of the year. You will often get reduced price bowling for being in a league though, and you will usually improve as a result of being in a league too. OFten,, you will have teammates who are pretty good who can give you tips on your game. |

[ QUOTE ] Kid at my school who owns his own ball, shoes etc. shot a 19. I have never laughed so hard. [/ QUOTE ] There was this family bowling next to us today who had their own balls, shoes, towels, gloves, etc. They were all awful. I think their best score was like an 80. I didn't understand it. The dad had correct form it looked like but he just kept guttering it. This is why I want to wait until I can break 170 consistently before I get my own equipment. I don't want to look like an idiot and get shown up by people who don't have it. [/ QUOTE ] It will be much easier to break 170 with a custom fit resin surface ball. I also find it somewhat comforting to know that nobody else has worn the same shoes. |

Go to a bowling alley and ask if they have any single spots or team spots in a league. Summer leagues are all starting about now. League is a little more expensive but you get money back at the end of the year. Not to mention weekly jackpots but you are aways from that. [/ QUOTE ] Also at most places during the summer you get a free game of bowling to use whenever you want for every game you bowl in the league so its 2 for 1. They try to do this because a lot of regular league bowlers (like myself) take the summers off as a break from bowling. This gets them more business. |

I think my record was 16. You would think my arm hurt afterwards. It did't. It was my ass that hurt from squatting so long.

I don't squat before I start my delivery.
That could be a mistake. |

Do you bend your knees when you deliver? I don't squat too much at the beginning, but I think the delivery is what did me in.

You are wasting your time and money by practicing without your own ball.
