Yay. I'm happy cos tmr is the council outing-camp.
Went to tampines safra with family, cousins and aunt to bowl. i think i didn't touch my bowling ball for abt... 8 months to a yr? lol. that's really crazy. i seriously forgot the drills (how to walk, etc etc). but when i stepped on the lane, it just came to my mind naturally. lol. i guess that's cos i started bowling when i was 6? lol. i took 8/9 pounds when i was 6. and now, i'm taking 11 pounds! haha. but yea, it was fun. but i hate my father's mutterings. it's like, so irritating. he kept telling me, "no, this is wrong you should...." like whatever. sorry for being so stubborn but i hate it when you do that. oh, btw, i should talk more abt bowling in order to prove that i really bowled since i was 6.
BowlingThree Different Bowling Techniques, Straight, Cranker (hook) and Spinner.
• Straight - many ppl uses this method, esp. those beginners of bowling or those we just treat bowling as an entertainment. you just aim is first pin and bowl. that's basically it.
• Cranker (Hook)
There's a hook there cos i love to call it hook. A cranker is a bowler who strives to generate revolutions using a cupped wrist and a bent elbow or muscled armswing. The term, cranking, is used to describe the style of release that crankers do. Many crankers throw their shots from "coast to coast" -- meaning that they start from one side of the lane, aim near the gutter (the "drain") on the other side, and let the ball hook back from the dry edges of the oil pattern.

Erm, basically, hook means we will start to bowl the ball from either the very right or left side of the lane, near the gutter, and let the ball "hook" to the center point of the pins.
• Spinner
Obviously, from the name, it means that the bowler will spin the ball, using one hand and deliver the ball. just like this.

Haha. Try guessing which one do i use. Okay, actually i know all.
But I'm a
cranker. Haha. Being a cranker is fun cos it just give us the kind of surprise feeling that we don't get like, the ball will either go gutter, or hit the pins. Audiences will also shout "ahhh..." when the ball
almost fell into the gutter. :) Haha. Wanna learn bowling, call me to teach you. :)
