No, it's not a stupid comment... Who is to say which person is correct/..the ball driller or the person who said you're over-spanned?

Go to the person who thinks your span is too long...they seem to know everything.

He only bowled one?

Did you mean to type parameters...or are paramaters your word for adult bumpers?

I hope it's not the same overseas bowlers who were going to bowl the Arufura last weekend.

Thanks for pointing out the rule Ian.... it still strike me as odd though, although not as odd as how the women's match play was contested in Darwin.

In all my 40+ years of scratch tournament bowling, I've never seen a bowler lose a match only to be given a victory when the losing bowler withdrew from competition at a later time.

With that kind of talk, your next women with will be Rosie and her sisters.

I want to see the 2010 Australian Masters tournament be a resounding success with 200+ entries and attracting bowlers from all over the globe. Paramount to this result would be TV coverage AND a story or two in our larger newspapers.

interesting clause for prospective team managers..  Arrange for shirts to be washed and ironed nightly during the event days. Those adults who wish to look after their own washing are able to do this as required. Offer the washing of uniforms as some players cannot operate washing machines...

Please tell us the story... Besides being a great guy who always had time for me, Earl was arguably the greatest bowler in history as well as being one of the fiercest competitors I've even known.

Would you believe Stan Gifford? http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=x9UjAAAAIBAJ&sjid=aOIDAAAAIBAJ&pg=5482%2C3553989

what wrong Ralph..do you have a hot scrabble game to play instead? lol

just goes to show you how meaningless 300's have become... Wonder what would happen if the gallery started clapping during one of Tiger Woods' 40 foot putts. lol

hmm..Guess I was wrong...oh well, back into semi-retirement I go

If you're asking whether I'd like to bowl doubles with you, the answer is YES, but there's one rule in there which is a liitle strange and may keep me from competing.

Congratulations on the appointment Cara. A little knowldege can take you a long way in this sport and with your experience in the game, I'm hoping for a sensational future!

Congratulations on the perfecto Dave!

I know it's still over a month away but let me be the first to congratulate you on reaching 65 Gary. You don't look a day over 60 :p

The reason is a simple one and makes sense to me....he's a 170 average bowler who to my knowledge hasn't ever bowled any ranking tournaments. I have no idea why he ever mentioned that he wouldn't be bowling this one...in fact..I'd be willing to pay for his TBA silver membership on the proviso...

I wouldn't be so sure of that.

This one tournament could very well decide the fate of tenpin bowling as a sport here in Australia. To be successful, the promoters (TBA & AMF), as well as the bowling proprietor groups, must get the word out to each and every TV network including their regional affiliate stations, as well as...

I guess the logical question to ask would be one concerning eligibility for the Australian Masters. Does anyone know whether or not a bowler (Australian AND International) will have to first compete in the Australian Adult Nationals (S, D, T) before being allowed to bowl the Masters?

yes Jim..it's just you! Same reason why people climb mountains..for the challenge.

If the final hiring decision is made by the current TBA board members, then I wouldn't expect much of a change for the better. However, let's all hope they put aside their antiquated thinking and get with the 21st century in selecting someone who actually bowls this time!
