Going bowling tomorrow!

Post by fortyshooter » Sat Mar 05, 2022 3:26 pm

Yep... found these 1/4 inch AR500 bowling pin targets on sale so ordered 3 and put together a nice pin popper. Used adjustable spring loaded
gate hinges and whatever else I had laying around. Now to choose the caliber bowling ball! :D

Forty that looks like it will be a lot of fun. Just wondering how long is your "alley" where you will be " bowling" and what size "ball"?

Good luck, looking forward to seeing how the new "alley" works. :D
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
