Bowling

I have been bowling for 12 years and I have improved largely due to my own personal vigorous training. If it wasn't for the 3 recent surgeries I have had in the last 3 years i would have tried out for for the Pro Tour. I have 9 perfect games and counting. All in all, when i put my mind to anything i conquer it.
