I think it would cause problems trying to enforce, corner bowling is an essential part of the game.

Stay as it is

35 metres is the length of bowling from one edge to the other opposite edge. I think if there were to be a limit it should be 40 metres which is just over twice the length of a mark. If you to bowl full corners which is 56 yards on a 40 X 40 bowling green I dont think many people would manage more than 50 yards as we are all veterans so I think 40 metres gives everyone a fair chance

Definitely in favour of it in any leagues below division two
