For The Love Of Bowling

Oh how I miss bowling.  I love it so much.  Anyone that knows me well can tell you how obsessed I am over it.  I can play game after game after game and still not get enough of it.  The other day my parents mentioned how everyone in their league keeps asking where I am and how come I'm not there bowling with them this summer. That really made me miss the people I bowl with and bowling even more.

Bowling by far is an extremely fun sport.  It's also competitive. I love every aspect of it. You get to meet new people and make new friends as you bowl in a league. And since I am a very competitive person, I love to compete among other great bowlers. I love when a game is close or when the other team thinks they have won, and I turn around and strike out in the last frame to win the game. The look on the other team's face is priceless. Now individually it is fun, but it is also a great team sport. Every bowler on a team plays an important role, whether the person is first in the order or if they are the anchor man on the team. 

So many people think of bowling as just a fun activity to do once in awhile. However, I think it is more than that. It is a team building activity, a competition, a social activity, a way to stay in shape, a skill building sport, and a challenge. I wish more people would take up the sport on a regular basis because it is truly something fun and enjoyable. 

I guess I'm ranting on a bit too much, but I hope this helps some people understand why I am passionate about it. Here is a fun video on just a skills challenge. I apologize that the video is a little long. Danny Weisman is actually from Baltimore, MD.  And I actually had the chance to not only meet Brian Voss, but also receive some bowling tips from him. In fact, I still use what he taught me.  Amazing hall of fame bowler.
