Troyza, what I have seen and experienced with Synthetics is the WAVES down the edges of the Lanes, this is where they are screwed to the timber underneath. I have spoken to Installers about this effect, they insist you cannot measure those depressions with a Feeler Gauge but to me you can see...

Wayne, it is the Cost, it doesn't cost as much to bowl in the States, I'm sure you can still pick $1 games over there and when the Aussie Dollar passes parity it will be even cheaper. willey

This may be the Case in America but for me the Game in Australia has been Hurt by "Cost of Bowling" pure and simple. I remember when you would Bowl in a Grand Prix event and pay $50 entry and have $1200 first prize in the 1980's. I also remember Bowling in a Grand Prix event and paying $120...

Dont **** it up for those that do enjoy the event, well Chin this exactly what this whole thread is about. How can you possibly enjoy the event if your made to sit out the entire Tournament, and if that Team didn't win than what a complete waste, whereas if they did Win, than that Bowler cannot...

Someone mentioned Anne Maree in a post of great players, I can remember a time when she couldn't get a spot in the Australian Team, even though she was the Best bowler, Why? It wasn't like she had to go out and improve as she was already the Best Woman Bowler in the Country, was it because she...

Just like taking someone to the Olympics and not letting them Swim or Run because they are not going to win a Medal. your a Sad lot. willey

I'm afraid you guy's are SICKO'S, none of you should call yourself a Sportsman, to have someone Qualify for the Team and sit on the bench after spending all that money is really SAD, and to actually think that somebody will Bowl a better game than them, than you think your Nostradamus as well...

Everyone here has an opinion on the non marking shoe's, but as an experienced Tech with 36 years under my belt I can tell you there is No such thing. Even the non sliding foot of a bowling shoe will mark the Approaches. So no body should be wearing anything other than regulation Bowling shoe's...

Is that Nick Alphabet ( Koumindacus sic) That's the only way he will strike. LOL. willey

AdrianS, don't you mean could the Industry, not afford, to pay him what he is worth. Believe me he is worth more than All those running the Company at the moment. willey

MY GOODNESS, 12 games than Matchplay, I've bowled in more games in a Daybreaker than that. AMF should give away running Tournaments, they just don't care. willey

Two of the problems I've seen over the Years, !982 Nationals at Golden Bowl in Victoria, no Pro-Shop open on the Sunday during the Australian Masters, I just needed to fix up my Thumb hole, could have done it myself but the Shop wasn't open. SPC had a habit of bringing in Managers from all over...

Where are they?

Obviously Surfers does not do 80 Linage anymore, too much time on your hands. willey

Sydpies, I think Happy Chicken can get to these Balls because he works there. willey

They have many in the USA and 800's willey

From my understanding from talking to the Staff, they are going to put in Computer Score scoring and take out the Frameworx, this will cost a substantial sum of money, this does mean they are in for the Long Haul. willey

You Guys are a lot of help aren't you. willey

Congratulations and welcome to the Club, both of you. To save me searching is there a site which shows all the past winners of the Masters? willey

Forgot to mention the Flecks in the Ball were done with Fish Scales as no metal is allowed to be used. willey

So the question is when did AMF start a Directorship, it must be after 1966, there were no Plastic Balls in 1961, BCH ran most of the Centre's till they went broke, than AMF started to run the Centres under Management and slowly bought each Centre that they could over a period of many years. One...

Well done Lindsay, I remember when you had High Game for a Junior at Fairfield Bowl, a 279 Bowled in the 60's, gee your getting old now. Frank Williams

Welcome to the Club James. Frank Williams

Bigsy, most balls are drilled with the ring finger further away because it "is" further away from the Thumb and for no other reason. They can be drilled with a "Drop Ring Finger" or "Sarge Easter" technique, which will alter the break point of the Ball. But in your case I would probably just...

Checking Wikipedia, after following a number of links I found the Single, Bowling brings out the Swinger in You, on E-Bay for $6.99, when it was in the Centres it was a Promotional record only. willey
