My Friend has bought a pair of Hensleilte Tiger Sport bowling shoes and have been raving about them ever since,
She reckons they are really good in wet weather, going to bide my time till next year was wondering if anyone else has tried these new shoes before I part with my cash. :rolleyes:
Have also seen these shoes in action!!!!! I do like the mesh on the soles for the grip.
I slipped quite badly of a wet mat a few years ago, really shock me up, so have always invested on a bowling shoe with a bit of grip.
Am planning to buy a pair just waiting for a sale period to get a good price!!
Really pleased you put this post because I think we underestimate the dangers of slipping on the 'Green'.:roll:

Have seen a lot of bowlers slip and fall this season,
Some of them had pretty bad injuries which could stop them bowling again
The weather had a lot to do with it, the conditions on the green were dreadful
I think it is worth while investing in shoes with better grip, the new shoes are improving all the time:rolleyes::rolleyes:
The Problem I have is there are so many new makes of Shoes on the market
Have got to get a new pair next year mine are quite worn down at the back
These new shoes look good but if I was getting some would they be too hot for indoors they look very chunky
Don't want to have to buy two pairs one for indoors and one for outside :roll: Mary

We have been slipping and sliding all over the place this season because of green conditions, some of the shoes which have been worn do not have a sufficient grip in the wet, we are standing on rubber mats, recipe for injury I will certainly be getting a better pair of shoes with a bit more grip Surfer8-)

You cant put a price on a good pair of shoes I know they are expensive but we wear them every day winter and summer
Do think with the weather we have had its so important to have something with a good grip if you fall and injury yourself money wouldn't come into it if you are not injured:rolleyes:

Well I for am going to see if I can get some in the Sales, if I keep dropping enough hints might get some for Christmas :D
At my age if I had a fall it would finish me off, cant take it with me and the kids would have a good holiday on my dosh so am going to get a new pair of shoes like the look of the new trainer type, might get a clip on pony tail seen a clip on Del Boy that would get them talking :D
