Just had my first bowling lesson....in rented shoes. I ordered shoes but they haven't come in. I had a BLAST! I can't believe I had so much fun. I learned several things.
1. I have no clue what I am doing but I am learning.
2. I turned my hand and basically I was bowling like a left handed person even though I bowl right handed.
3. I tried bowling left handed since I am a lefty and it wasn't natural at all....go figure.
4. I need to open up my shoulders and stay square.
5. Did you know all the boards on the lane (39 in all) have names...1, 2, 3....mundane I know but apparently they help you aim....who knew? Not me!
6. I need to practice.
7. I don't like rented shoes...can't wait for mine to come...hurry up UPS!
8. If I decide to bowl more I want my own ball....is that wrong? The one I was looking at and my instructor recommended was $94 dollars and that is with the fingers drilled...not bad (my instructor is a way nice firefighter guy...if I fell over and passed out from so much working out he could save me...Yay!)
9. I enjoyed myself....I really liked having time to learn something new and taking instruction from someone else who knew what they were doing.
Bowling may be something that reminds people of the 70's with the crazy bowling shirts and everyone playing on a league, but I really liked it today and I felt a sense of accomplishment....GO Kristin!
