Bats comments are a MUST READ for all bowlers and i believe a sad endictment on bowling today in Australia. what can we do to keep Chris and others with the skill, knowledge and expertise here in Australia to improve bowling in this country not other...

    State Championships what do they mean to you really…

    i like the idea of all the grades. it provides a scratch enviroment where the different levels of skill play against their own skill level on a scratch basis. i also like the catching up with friends again, aspect that a state championship, or any championship for that matter, provides. i...

    Nationally Ranked Events are there too many or are they spaced correctly…

    the minute we start to try and schedule around everything else is the minute we might as well not worry about it. if at say 1 November in the prior year all of these tournaments have booked there weekends its then up to the bowlers themselves to decide if they want to or even can attend. these...

    Nationally Ranked Events are there too many or are they spaced correctly…

    this way the bowlers playing inter district, premiership pennants, country challenge, state leagues etc can have their organisers roster these weekends off in advance and there's not the hassle of reserves etc to contend with and you would therefore think more entries would generate as a result...

    Columbia 300 three new columbia balls

    its now been a month since i got these balls and even though i can't use the Resurgence on my home conditions due to whatever reason to change the condition from a heavier pattern to a drier one but i'm finding the Rival still is very usable on drier lanes. in saying that you have to be...

    Just why does Melbourne have 3 majors?

    i have a question to ask: why would the organisers or promoters of these majors or even the proprietors of centres want to move any of them or stage a tournament in Sydney when committment is a huge problem for Sydney based bowlers? look at the recent Bathurst tournament and the number that...

    Columbia 300 three new columbia balls

    i brought both the Resurgence and the Rival whilst at Nationals. Patrick Birtig drilled them up for me. i wanted both to go long and straight and hook agressively after the break point and attack the pins. sure enough they certainly do that and more, i've never had so much carry on my shot...

    What makes Tenpin Bowling different to other sports…

    agree Brenton, but its also the amount of organisations. we can't go on taking our bat and ball and going and forming yet another organisation because we don't like the decisions made. i truly would like to know how many separate distinct and individual organisations there are in Oz all doing...

    Finals Format - Which Do You Prefer to Play In?

    i don't play too many tournaments so have no real preference but thought the final of Bathurst tournament is worth mentioning here. GeorgeF won and bowled a huge average to do so and congrats to him. but on a day where matchplay was the order of the day the best matchplayer on the day did not...

    2010 Australian National Tenpin Bowling Carnival

    i agree it will take some working out, but as i've said before don't restrict play to one centre use 2 or 3 all within the same area. i mean don't use Keon Park if your using Altona and Werribee. keep them all closeby. this way you can handle logistics with a greater number of lanes being used...

    2010 Australian National Tenpin Bowling Carnival

    logistically a nightmare hey!!!!! why not use multiple centres, for example in Sydney use Cambelltown, Macarthur and Liverpool or Liverpool, Bankstown and Enfield, i know the later 2 have a reduced life, but who is to say a group of nearby centres in any of the capital cities can't jointly...

    2010 Australian National Tenpin Bowling Carnival

    O.M.G. I was only talking to Ron Forbes about something similar to this the other day, though my thoughts went further in that a National year end tournament encompassed all grades and to qualify for a state team each state used a state based ratings system per grade (Open to D) and local /...
