another fact I posted and another idiot calling it negative. Last year we had a number of people stating who would come and in the end most of them were wrong or misinformed. Started same as this. People who don't really know quoting rumours. If you don't like the truth then stop doing the...

Toon, I really don't care if you are buying the site, good luck to you if you think you need to but it had nothing to do with my comment. Since you fail to understand things...Hypocrite referred to the fact you are always ready to post negative comments in relation to mine yet you post your...

A move in the right direction :)

Keep posting on here, a site most the bowlers in Australia don't even know about. Keep getting less numbers at tourneys than you could. Yes TB helps but don't tell me that entry forms get sent out like they used to. That's just (naughty word) in most cases. The majority of bowlers don't even...

lol, much like last year. start the rumours now.

Open your eyes. Tb is not an official site and until it becomes one it will never get the good tourney support you need. Yes it has passed on info and that is good but at the end of the day it is just another site. We wont get back to the "good old days" and everyone knows that but until you...

once upon a time people used to know when tourneys were on because centres were informed and bowlers had access to the information. Many tournament directors now feel that simply posting on here is enough. It isn't. As for the industry not cooperating, why should they? At most this site has...

yep, you never got involved in any of it.

Not a case of me being happy about the site dying at all. I have nothing against the site, just the stupidity of some of the posts which is why I comment. TB has never been the only place tourneys should be posted and now maybe people have realized that and they can be advertised properly as...

the fact is TB has been dying slowly for quite a while now. If anyone bothered to count the number of posts each day you would find it has dropped a lot and is still dropping. RIP totalbowling.

The rankings in the tourneys mean nothing the way they are now. Not enough tourneys and they are only attended by the few regulars who can afford to bowl them. They are actually nothing short of a joke. Anything that tries to get participation will only help.

Wow, you mean keep it simple? Sorry, I thought that applied to everything someone tries to do and was just common sense.

Nev, You said "Hey I'm not talking coaching the elite here just league level down (Which is all what Level one coaches are only supposed to coach)" Yes this thread is a joke if you truly believe that people who are not "accredited coaches" should not help their fellow league bowlers where...

100% agree with George. (yes I typed that) This is almost a joke thread. A piece of paper means nothing. You can't learn bowling in a weekend, you can't learn bowling in a few weeks, yet anyone can do the course and get accredited. At the end of the day if you help someone then you help...

Nev, Tennis, you pay for a racquet, membership fees then less than $10 a week here. Golf, you can walk in off the road and pay $20 to play for a few hours. Cinema, depending what you buy $20-$30 for a few hours. Tenpin - $12-$14 for 10-15 mins for social play. Bowling is expensive compared...

great event every year.

lol @ the "better bowlers" don't shoot the scores they do because of the equipment. That is a statement made by someone who is either blind or trying to protect their own image. Sure SOME of them might be more accurate but the majority are only good league bowlers who decide to bowl a few...

you don't need one. just ask if you want to know something or phone with your entry.

1. Remove the fractured setup that is in place and have everything run, organised and managed by one body. When that happens we can move forward with an organised sport. 2. Work out a way to give everyone a chance to bowl tournaments or qualify for rep teams, not just those who can afford it...

Promote it all you want, it would be good to see it continue. I have also said a couple of times that the people involved do a great job and good luck to them. Hardly negative comments. I also realise it takes money and time (a lot of both) to run the show. I realise the commitment people...

Yes most publicity is good publicity and yes the guys have done a great job of running the show. I believe the show only creates awareness and does not actually promote the sport and others think I am wrong. All that is fine but where does any of it mean that the bowlers have to subscribe or...

Subtle difference Robbie. If you were not so quick to jump on it you might even look at it and understand what I am saying. Is the show a direct promotion/advertisement of the sport, showing how people young and old and of all different backgrounds/abilities can play the sport? Is it directly...

Dishman, I have better things to do with my money and I really don't need or want DVDs. I already pay our governing body, TBA, higher subscriptions to help promote the sport. I support bowling as much as the next person (sometimes more). "I think it's finally answers the question what...

Interesting that a number of them happened in pre-bowls.

Isn't Mentone also the same centre where they have multiple 300 games thrown most weeks because it is so easy?
