my new set of "bowls"

A returning club member from the Sarasota Lawn Bowling Club, who recently decided to retire from the sport, brought in her old used "bowls" for sale. These were a particularly hard-to-find set with over twenty-five years of play. They're classic Taylor Bowls from Scotland with a preferred wide bias and most importantly - the right weight and grip.  My perfect bowls.

This past week I've been kept busy, photographing the sport of "lawn bowling" for a magazine piece. So proudly, for one shot, I gathered up my newly acquired set and did a happy group portrait on our local greens.

A set of four, Taylor "Lignoids".
