Embark on an extraordinary journey with Mike Bolland, a congenital amputee who defies the odds and transcends barriers with his remarkable resilience and ingenuity. Born without a right hand in Montclair, New Jersey, Mike's story is a testament to the power of perseverance and creativity.

From his early years in beautiful Hazlet, NJ, where he attended Beers Street School, to his family's relocation to Arizona at the age of eight, Mike's life took unexpected turns that would shape his remarkable trajectory. It was in Arizona where Mike's journey into the spotlight began when he landed the role of Danny in the movie "The Trial of Billy Jack." While initially drawn to the glitz and glamour of the movie industry, Mike quickly realized that his casting was not due to his acting talents, but rather his unique physical condition.

Undeterred by the challenges he faced, Mike's resilience only grew stronger with time. At the age of 13, he embarked on a bowling journey that would change his life forever. Introduced to the sport by a friend, Mike quickly discovered a natural talent for bowling. By the age of 16, he clinched his first state bowling title, propelling him onto the national stage and earning him a coveted spot in the Coca-Cola Nationals in Washington, D.C. This opportunity marked Mike's first real taste of independence and success away from home.
