Bowling like grandma



So this past weekend i went bowling.. more then once! i rekindled my love for bowling. I also learned a few things about my self.. like oh i dont know.. i cant bowl properly. I am condemned to bowling like my grandmother. Yes thats right, MattG bowls like grandma.

The art of bowling like an old lady has been proven to work better then bowling normally (for me at least). Its tricky to actually get the hang of but basically what you want to do to achieve best results is to bend over and squat as much as possible.. so your closest to the ground. Then once you have that. you want to position the ball not in the middle .. but slightly to the side (THIS IS KEY). Then once you have that your going to want to roll the ball i find the slower you roll the ball the better results you will get. Just dont roll the ball too slow.. i got my ball stuck half way down thats how hardcore i am when it comes to bowling.

Now how is this better then bowling "the normal way"? well i have discovered that when you just whip the ball down the lane with reckless abandon you have no control of the ball. It flys down the lane and right into the gutter 80% of the time ( a statistic i made up for this post). Also you risk the danger of having your finger stuck in the hole and getting ripped off. Then crashing into the floor and cracking the ball and damaging the floor. Now when you roll the ball gently you have all the control in the world. You even have time to wiggle your hand at the ball if it starts to stray off in the wrong direction as if to push the ball with your mind towards the pins. Also you can play another game where you race the ball well its rolling towards the pins you try and get back to your seat before it can knock over any pins.

Yeah, I know people that bowl like that. I prefer to just chuck the ball down the lane, rarely get gutter balls that way.

good job warning people about the ripping-extremities danger of bowling. I've ripped my fingers out a couple times and now I only have a finger on each hand. oh and the cost was TERRIBLE. I'm not even sure how I'm typing, I guess I'm that magical.
I like how you have to wear a sweatband to bowl?
ha it's adorable.
