Barefoot bowling and beer

It has become some what of an Australia past time...

Barefoot bowls and beer!

Every town in Australia is guaranteed to have a 'bowlo' or bowling club and these days each most of these clubs will pretty much offer the sport of barefoot bowls.

Our venue of choice? Norah Head Bowls and Sports Club. For $5 a head you can get your competitive streak on and challenge your friends to who can get the big black ball closest to the little white ball! Sounds easy...? NO WAY!

The black balls are weighted to one side and curve into that side as they roll - this is a precision sport. Add a very pots of beer to the mix and you have yourself one mighty challenge!

Hard but and a lot of fun!
