Hello again!
I have up until now been using a friends old bowls but would like to purchase my own soon as hers are not the right grip size
Can anyone recomend a good make of bowl? I was considering Taylor International - does anyone else have these bowls?
Thanks!

Hello Sandra
I know just what you mean about buying new bowls,
there are so many makes and sizes, I play with classic 2's, both in- doors and out, and they are good, if you have bowling friends it would be a good idea to borrow some woods , for a roll up, but do take your time before making a decision, good luck in your new sport .

Hello thought I would let you know , that I have been bowling indoors and have changed to ‘Dreamline’ bowls, and they take a narrow line, which is a big advantage, epically on the side rinks, I would recommend them to anyone, good luck with your new sport.

Just the right time to go shopping for bowing equipment, before the rush starts, a lot of bowlers in my club are changing to tigers twos, let us know how you get on with your new woods,

well was at prestwick indoor this morning and tried the tiger 2,s out and was impressed,sat in my hand well and was able to deliver smoothly, they still need a bit of grass though but not as swingy as my internationals,,
intend to use them for outdoors as well,looking forward to that would recommend henselite tiger 2,s ,,oops forgot to mention my wife beat me this morning,well i had a slight hangover,thats my excuse,, :)
