Do you think those who bowl left-handed have an advantage over those who bowl right-handed? When I bowl a great game in league I am always teased that I had 'my own oil' because I was the only left-hander bowling and the lanes didn't 'break down' as quickly.

I think we as lefties always have advantage because we are special..haha.....additionally,there are so many lefthanded professional bowlers,isnt it? My theory is lefthanded people have more "mathematical instincts" than righthanded people....haha...

i think you are in advantage + disadvantage advantage when the oil is perfect for you because it will stay that way longer and disadvantage when you aree completely lost because of the same as the advantage

I don't feel us lefties have an advantage over right handed bowlers. However what I have seen and heard, left handed bowlers have a wicked curve ball, which we must learn to use to our advantage. I myself have a curvr ball and sometimes have a hard time controlling.
