Four of us off for our first 'trial session' tomorrow at Jack Clark Park in Shields. I found me dad's old set of woods in the attic when I was clearing out my house last year so I'll at least look the part on my way in.
Every bowl has to be near the jack, can you manage that backhand and forehand?
Is there much money or flange in it?
You’ll be World Champion by March marraFour of us off for our first 'trial session' tomorrow at Jack Clark Park in Shields. I found me dad's old set of woods in the attic when I was clearing out my house last year so I'll at least look the part on my way in.
I went once with my granny as a kid to an indoor one at community centre, half way down they had this wooden device that you couldn't bowl straight and you had to bowl around it. Nearly everyone hit the deviceKeep us informed. Looks a piece of piss.
I’m sure I can learn in a year
Not really. Maybe an old woman with plenty of money.
Take up darts at the same time. You’ll be at Ally Pally in a couple of years.
Oh yesYou’ve linked in someone who’s gunna call me out haven’t you?
Did that a few years ago. I was working in a place that afforded 12 hour of nothing so we kitted out a room and played non stop for about six months.
It’s harder than it looks.
Oh yes
I took up outdoor bowls 4 years ago and it took a long time to come to terms with the different states of the many rinks. Last September I started bowling indoors and it was a nightmare to get it right given the pace of the mat. Most of the bowlers have played indoor/outdoor for many years and, although I haven't been called a wa**er, their facial expressions certainly suggests that.
Since @cornish mackem has mentioned me I'll just say it's more difficult than you think bonny lad.Just watching a bit of this.
I am sure with a year of practice and full commitment you could actually compete at a very high level and even qualify for the world championship.
Got to be one of the easiest sports to excel at?
