Want the Ultimate Bowling Experience on the WII?

I just stumbled across a neat little gadget that turns your WIImote into a bowling ball.

Simply open the ball and insert your WIImote.  Close it up and use it like a real bowling ball, just don’t let go.  Bad things happen when Wii accessories fly across the room towards expensive television sets.  I wonder how realistic this attachment is.

Golf, Room For Improvement

Golfing is a wonderful sport.  There always seems to be room for improvement.  I just wish it would happen faster.  However, like most average golfers, I do not have the discipline to get better.  I do not take time to go to the driving range, or time for lessons.  I do my practice on the course, which is a very bad idea if you want to improve.

However, I am open to suggestions from people that I shoot a round with.  My latest suggestion came from Tony Mendiola, unfortunately it wasn’t until the 16th hole.  I was not hitting my irons very well, so he took the opportunity to tell me that I was collapsing my elbows during the backswing.  Now, as a golfer I know this swing characteristic is bad and wasn’t aware that I was doing it.  As soon as I got to my next iron shot, I made it a priority to widen my swing, and hit he ball flush and long.  What a great feeling it was. 

Thank you Mr M.

Store Your Bowling Spec Cards

Your pro shop operator should have your bowling specs on file.  If you decide to purchase a new bowling ball, they do not have to fit you again.  So if they have your specs on file, why shouldn’t you.  bowlingball.com now gives you the ability to store your specs in your account.

Most bowlers do not know their specs.  This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it sure can’t hurt for you to have.  I have heard many stories over the years of pro shop owners just closing up shop, or airlines losing bowling balls on the way to a tournament out of city or state.  Fitting is not a science, it is more of an art.  If you have a great fit already, then you really don’t want to change it.

Your bowling specs include your span (distance from thumb to fingers), hole pitches (the angle the holes are drilled in the ball), hole sizes (the diameter of the holes being drilled), and much more.
