Got a chap skipping our indoor rink Monday night he has the most annoying habit of plonking his foot beside the jack and shouting up the

rink bowl to my foot feel like telling him where to stick it he has really started to annoy me any thoughts on how to handle this one:confused:

Have played with some very annoying Skips the worse they are the more they shout makes them look goodThey can come off the green and blame all the rest of the team
Never own up to having a bad game themselves:(

Had one Skip who paced up the green measuring how short I was felt like whacking him over the head with my wood

Would have given anything to have played three and done the same thing :confused: when he was short:confused:

Hate Skips who do that no body is short on purpose seen skips who have been short every end, usually get someone saying Skips should be up
Pity they don't say it a bit louder:D

Just ignore him if he thinks you are not taking any notice he will soon get the message
Other than that fire a couple of wood up the green give him something to complain about:D

Some Skips can put players off bowls for life when they do a lot of

shouting and arm swinging

In my book it means they are panicking because they have to draw into

the head themselves:roll:
