I, along with some friends, have recently discovered a love for bowling. We've gone a lot the past few weeks. It's been an evolving process, and I find it fitting that we document that progress. I'll introduce tonight the 4 members of our team, with our current throw preferences. Keep in mind, this is not a joke. We have each have our own ball and bag, and the majority of us have our own shoes. (Alright, to avoid further comments, I am the only one without shoes now. I'm workin on it!!) Anyways. Bowling. What a good time.
Me. Mickey Bowl.
Travis. Rob.
That's the Piranha Chomp. The name was coined by Rob. I started with the Piranha Chomp several weeks ago and saw immediate results, soon bowling a career high 202. Since then the Piranha Chomp has proved unreliable. I'm working on perfecting the spin.
Rob with the Sledgehammerhead Shark. Patented and trademarked by Rob himself, three fingers are placed in the holes of the ball, curled up with the wrist and flicked ever-so-smoothly onto the lane, creating a curve that is unmistakable. I've always been impressed with the Sledgehammerhead Shark, as I honestly don't see how it's done effectively. Rob has proved it to be very effective, as he scored a 186 last night.
Rob can act really strange around his ball, Travioli. I wouldn't mind so much... but his ball is named Travis. I think you can put two and two together and realize perhaps he has a few gay tendencies. (Not that there's anything wrong with that...) Pictured above was moments before a big juicy kiss.
This is Noah. If you could see his face, you'd see it resembles that of a Badger. Therefore, shown here is a shot of the "Badger Bite" in full action. A variation of the Sledgehammerhead with all three fingers tucked in and a serious spin that could only be reached by that of a badger bite. If you know what I mean... and I think you do.
This is the Chelsea Slaughter Slide. Classic style with a patented 6-8" shoe slide on the wood before lettin 'er go. It looks really nice every time. Works really well some of the time.The Chelsea Slaughter Slide workin it!!!
The Piranha Chomp in all it's inconsistency.
Badger Bite in action.. pickin up the split!!

Sure my ball is officially named Travis, but that is why I call it the lady version, Travioli, so that it is not gay. I think I could come up with a much better name, but it is already engraved with "Travis". I could always get a "Not a boy" engraved right above it so that we can all know with surety that it is not a male ball.
I like you blog very much!!!
First off, (rob) Travioli is not the lady version of Travis. It is actually the Italian-American version. Which is even MORE gay than you just loving a man named Travis. As for the "Not a boy" engraving, I think that could be your only hope.
2ndly, I should come bowling with y'all more often. I'd like to perfect my pointer/pinky style a bit more...
Jace, first of all, I want to say that it is not a first name, it is a last name. Her name is Miss Travis. Secondly, at worst it is a tribute to the band travis. So there.
