JenKneeBee: World Champion Ambidextrous Bowler!

I'm sure you will all be ecstatic to hear that tonight I achieved one of my lifetime goals! I bowled a 110 with my left hand!!! Woohoo! And a turkey! (For all you non-bowling types, that's three strikes in a row).
It's a bit hard to see, but I'm the third one down:

Congrats!

I believe once you learn to bowl well with your non-dominant hand, the next challenge is to bowl with your feet (which may require a custom-made bowling ball) :)

Congratulations! I can't bowl all that well with either hand (we had candlepin where I grew up, so I never got the hang of holding on to a 12lb. ball with two fingers and a thumb).

Wow. I am truly impressed. Both of my hands have fat little hammer thumbs which rule out traditional bowling balls for me. I will leave that niche of fame to YOU.

Go JenKNEE! Go JenKNEE!!

Stacy: Great idea! I'll have to look into that :)

Trish: I don't think i've ever heard of candlepin. time to head over to wikipedia

mcbigb: branden was the top scorer. 173 i believe. we missed you!

lynette: some people can palm the ball and get nice spin. never figured out how to do that though :)
