Julian visited us again this weekend, so we decided to get some lunch at a new sandwich shop in town and then go bowling. Yes, bowling. I figure it’s one of the dumbest games ever invented, but with the right group of people it can be a lot of fun. It turns out we had the right group of people.
Zaque’s strategy was to use a lightweight ball and put just enough juice on it to get it to the pins.
As it turns out, that was often not enough momentum to actually knock down enough pins, even though his targeting was pretty good. So he’d often end up with splits or a couple of stalwart pins in the middle.
I, on the other hand, believed in using a heavyweight ball (15 pounds, oof!) and hurling it down the alley with all the force I could muster. My aim was terrible, but sheer inertia did a lot of damage.
Julian definitely had the best form, and managed to start off with a couple of strikes in the first frames.
Laralee looked good too, although apparently I caught her after a particularly bad bowl:
In the end, we all had a good time playing a dumb game.
