If you are new here, welcome to the Dam Good Average Bowler page! I appreciate you LIKING and FOLLOWING the journey. I'm Michael Price. I have worked for Bowling World pro shop in Huntsville, Alabama for almost 20 years and I was recently inducted into the Huntsville USBC Hall of Fame in the Superior Bowler category back in July 2026. DGAB has been in existence since 2021 and I just recently celebrated my 5 year anniversary too!
DGAB was created from a silly idea going on in my head. Back in 2021, I had just rolled my highest 800 series at the time of 816. If you are a bowling ball historian, I was using a Brunswick Melee Jab Blood Red (great ball by the way & photo posted for reference).
Back then, DV8 had their bowling ball series Damn Good Verge in solid & pearl. I was also constantly wearing a shirt when I was practicing that said, "Average Bowler". One of my good friends and avid supporters, Jackson Stiles, made a comment on my original post while congratulating me and said, "now that is what a Damn Good Average Bowler" does. Within a few days, I made the decision that I did NOT want to step on Brunswick's toes with their name Damn Good Verge, so I dropped the "n" while also wanting it to be a bit more "family friendly" and decided on combining the two names into one, thus Dam Good Average Bowler was born.
Another acquaintance of mine was doodling in their notebook and I decided I needed a mascot or logo. What better mascot for your logo than a beaver, because you know? Beaver Dam? Get it?
A few ideas pitched later and I had my first render of my logo as you can see in the second photo posted. I had a graphic artist color it up and I had my first official DGAB logo ready to go.
One of the coolest things is when someone comes into the pro shop and says, "You're Dam Good Average Bowler, aren't you?". It is also another cool thing when you are forever known as DGAB to your supporters.
I really love the game of bowling for the most part. I pride myself on bringing a quality product to you all as I give some insights with some of the newest releases from Hammer and other Brunswick branded products. I believe in leading by being impartial towards any and all brands of bowling. I have done numerous coaching clinics, given multiple bowling lessons, and continue trying to leave my foot print on this awesome sport of ours.
