Garry comments: Taylor bowls give me the confidence that the product will perform on any surface  and give me  the ability to play the shots.  The clothes are a high standard and very nice.

Which model(s)/size of Taylor bowls  do you enjoy playing with and why? ..Taylor International size 2. I use these because I like the line that these boys take and the size 2 lets me grip them better in the rain. I use  Vectors indoor due to leading or playing front end in games.

What country/region/club/team do you play for?

Scotland para bowls

Blackwood Victoria BC (outdoor)

Blantyre miners welfare IBC (indoor) 

When and why did you start playing bowls?  I started playing bowls in the summer of 1999. After a "come and try" event organised through my school.
