sounds like a lot of fun, but I can see the right individual having a HUGE advantage with this lineup of games.

For example, as luck would have it, I happen to be a 215 average bowler, throw in a dart league, am a 7 handicap at golf, and have played poker full time for 3 years. I think the hand-eye coordination thing would give me an edge in Bocce ball as well.

All that being said, I'm certainly not special. I think there are folks out there that could wipe the floor with this line up.

You may want to diversify a little and throw a curveball at them with something else. Scrabble, perhaps? Good luck with this, it sounds like a blast!

How about trying to hit 85 mph fastballs in the local batting cage, fitting with the theme.

I had two friends in high school who came up with something like this.

However, they had a tie-breaker - the Manliest of Contests.

Deciding the winner involves the use of a ruler. Figure it out.
