    Is winning all that matters?

    So true Geoff and thats one of the reasons why i dont bowl anymore tournaments for the time being. Im not interested in trying to improving myself or winning anymore and have lost that killer instinct hence the reason why i stick to leagues. Im loving the socialising of bowling at the...

    Your first 600 series?

    Im sure you will get your first 600 pretty soon,your knocking on the door. Try not to think about it,just relax and have fun. I bowled my first 600 in 1987 from memory,about 2 years after i started bowling. Now its just a normal thing to bowl 600. Keep plugging away :)

    AMF centres enforcing TBA membership!

    Not sure what the issue is with NSW, a lot of the bowlers I know are tenpin Sydney members, some of those bowlers are happy to be in one association as they only bowl in tenpin Sydney tournaments- east coast cup etc... The Telstar doubles at Blacktown on thursday nights requires you to be a TBA...

    Numbers at tournaments

    Cost of living far greater than it was in the 70's and 80's and even the 90's to a point. The Percentage of a persons wage going into there mortgage is greater than the old days. Prizemoney has stayed pretty much the same but entry fees on the rise. However one has to remember that we don't...

    AMF centres enforcing TBA membership!

    I have asked a few bowlers in the past few weeks and they said they have never heard of the TBA,however they remember the ATBC. I think in the ATBC days its was compulsory to be a member to bowl league.

    Australian Masters : SUCCESS or FAILURE

    In most tournaments,yes the prizemoney remains the same,or has even dropped over the years no doubt due to increase costs and reduced numbers, however when i used to bowl tournaments,it wasnt because of the money,it was because i wanted to compete against to best and have a go.I earn my money...

    AMF centres enforcing TBA membership!

    A few years ago from memory i wasnt a TBA member for one or 2 years in a row,due to the reasons i stated above,so its definatly not the first time i havent been a member. By no means im knocking the association,i felt it pointless being in two associations. I was always a Tenpin Sydney member...

    AMF centres enforcing TBA membership!

    I wasnt going to join the TBA this year at all,only because im a Tenpin Sydney member and didnt see the need to be in two associations,as i dont bowl in any TBA tournaments anymore. I only joined the TBA in 2010 because it is mandatory to be a TBA member to bowl in the Telstar doubles at...

    PBA record shattered

    Gees thats some good numbers there considering that was done back before reactive balls came into play . So maybe its a myth that averages are higher than of 20 or so years ago??. Seems to me that Bowling averages were just as high as they are now??
