I have once in my life been a hard core bowler. like have two balls my own shoes my own bag own team and a closet full of trophies. now the balls dont fint my fingers, the shoes are 4 sizes to small, and i bowel a 100 instead of my high of 265. I won tournaments and my dad and i even got second in the state once. Who knows what would of happend if i had stuck with it, i know i wouldnt have the life i do now. none of the friends i wouldn't have the love of my life nothing. I'm glad i gave it up.
