    Well almost another month gone..days are getting shorter now,and I 'm looking for that first frost ..LOL

    Finally got a ball that will hook,hooks so much that it makes me proud...NOT..Too bad it has to be a GOLF BALL....LMAO Like my bowling I don"t get out enough..been almost 5yrs since I swung a club...

    Well enough of that..back to frustration on the lanes.Had taken a month off,and came back to an outright insane lane condition.Guess it was a flat pattern as everything I tried at the time moved off to the right.

    Only bowled 2games,and the only line I found was standing left of centre,and shooting 1 board left of centre with very little effort,and just get the ball into an early roll,and I could find the 1/3 pocket.Every line on the right moved to the right.If you tried to force it,or angle in  just headpin hits,or splits..

    Oh well back to the hooking golf ball..maybe polish the ball ,,that might work..lol

    Well just got back from a tournament in Portland May17/18.

    Might as well say I sucked big time..was way to hot,and humid.Just sapped the energy right out of me.Never could handle the heat..lol

    The main ball I used was the roto grip "Epic" which broke nice into the pocket,but thats all it did..just no power thru the pins.Changed over to my Storm"Sure Fire",and wow what power thru the pins..too bad I didn't do that earlier...The heat,humidity had bagged me out,and it was all I could do just to be there.

    Well now for a break..my building is being re-piped,and not much peace for the next 5-6 months,and working nights just complicates everything.

    Thanks Don!
    I need a good camera first! LOL.
    ...I did sign a Tournament Results sheet that had my pic on it for someone one time as a joke...but they actually kept it and took it home. Boy was I suprised!

    If I ever make it to the pros, I will never forget my supporters or fans that helped me get there. ;-)

    Rock ON!

    Thanks for the insight, Don.

    I actually have a monthly planner/calendar, that I record all of my wins/accomplishments. As for the ABT, it's recorded on thier website and they have weekly standings/winnings sheets.

    My ultimate goal is to make the PBA. It's kinda pricey, as far as entry fees and what not, but I'm willing to go for it. Before the summer is out, I'm going to enter one of the regional opens and give it my best.

    Sponsorship would be cool to have, but I don't know too much about it.
