I've always been really athletic. I played pretty much everything when I was a kid. Started playing golf in the 6th grade and quit playing most everything else by the 8th grade.
Ended up with a scholarship.
But I suck at bowling. It's the only thing I can think of.

Jesus, man.
I can golf, I can do martial arts, I can play volleyball (like no one's business), soccer, football, baseball, basketball -- literally anything that involves physical activity.
Can't fricking bowl to save my life.

Bass fishing, more specifically big fish. I have been fishing on and off my whole life (I am 42) but only have 2 fish over 5 lbs and neither one count. Got a 6.5 LM on a buzz bait but it was in a buddy's 10 acre pond so that doesn't count. Got a 5.4 smallie on a live shad once but live bait don't count either. I always catch fish, and usually a lot of fish, but just can't get any big fish.
Everything else I was decent but never great. Was good at football and baseball, had a few 200+ games bowling and shot low 80's as a weekend golfer with one 79. Took up trap shooting and won my class the first year at the State Championships and was runner up overall 2 years later. But with my back so messed up I had to quit all that and got another boat and am fishing again. I fish Pickwick Lake mostly and it has changed so much since I last had a boat in 2007 it's like a new lake.

I played football and baseball in HS and was pretty good at both for an average sized white boy. However, one winter I tried wrestling and got my arse kicked continually. Got pinned several times. I decided that was that for me!

You need to go fishing with a guide. Specifically Lanier Spots. he'll teach you how to do that fishing thang.

I am about 20 mins from Waterloo and put in there 99% of the time. That's right across from the mouth of Bear Creek. Usually I fish between the ramp and Panther Creek.

It's a toss up between 110M High Hurdles, or discus. Tried both in high school. (Football players were required to run track) In my first hurdles attempt I smacked both runners beside me as I frog leaped over the hurdles, then ate it on the last one. Discus I scratched all 3 attempts because I couldn't throw the discus within the legal boundary. My last throw almost hit the measuring tape guy. They told me I was disqualified and to go back to my team tent.
Didn't care one bit, just got a day out of school to watch the female participants.

I'm 6'5 and can't throw a decent spiral to save my life...and if I do it's a hurl to get more than 20yds.....also can't throw a baseball more than 50 mph.
And don't even talk to me about basketball.
What a fricking waste.

I have always been pretty athletic, played baseball and basketball into high school before discovering the wonders of chasing girls and experimental drug use.
At some point in my mid twenties I was talked into joining a softball league. I was completely shocked and humiliated to discover that I could not hit the ball to save my life. I played 2 games and struck out at every single at bat. I remember seriously asking them to please just throw a regular overhand pitch when I batted but my request was denied and I was laughed at by all. I will go to my grave never having made contact with a softball something about that slow arching pitch turned me into an uncoordinated silly looking man.

Gave up 2 HRs in one inning in baseball in HS. One was my travel team teammate, and I caught hell from him for years after that.
Also got dunked on by Corey Brewer in a camp game in HS too. That sucked..

Golf for me. I don't put in much practice, it's just an escape from the wife while hanging with my buddies and drinking beer.
