Who invented bowling and when?

It is difficult to target a single origin point or inventor for bowling. The common story is that an ancient version of the game was found in a child's tomb in Egypt. Because of this, it is believed by many that the sport was invented by the Egyptians, but there is no official data to corroborate the story or negate it. Other possibilities are the Germans and the English, but there is really no way to know. In modern times, I would definitely recommend Lucky Strike. Check it out. I had a great time there.

What is a guaranteed bowling league?

A guaranteed bowling league is where there is an agreement between the league and center to pay a specific amount in lineage based on a certain number of teams and players for a certain number of weeks.

For example, if the center required a trios league to guarantee 20 teams to pay $10 per spot for 30 weeks, it would mean the league must pay $600 each week (20 * 3 players * $10 each) for a total of $18,000 for the season. Should the league have members or teams that quit during the season, the league must still pay the center the guaranteed amount.

You roll a 16 pound ball at 17 mph will dropping to a 14 pound help or hurt your game?

All things considered, I would expect it to help your game. There are a number of reasons this for this:

1) If you are sacrificing accuracy for this much speed, moving to a lighter ball may allow you to get the same velocity with a bit more control.

2) If fatigue causes you to bowl worse at the end of the series, a lighter ball may improve your endurance.

3) If you find yourself leaving a lot of 9-pins (for a righty), your ball may be driving through the pins too hard and not deflecting enough. A lighter ball will deflect more as it moves through the rack.

On the other hand, you may find yourself overpowering a 14-pound ball when you're used to a 16.

I'd recommend going down to a 15-pound ball, unless pain or an injury is the main motivation for going to a 14-pound ball.
