I am a one handed, righty, no thumb bowler, but I read this with interest. I am now moving to bowling balls with no thumb drilled because the TBA specs on drilling have recently changed. Easy Tiger, you are correct that an unused thumb hole could at one time be covered with palm or thumb...

Brendan Very impressive. Glad I got to shake your hand, albeit earlier in the day. LOL All the best Sumo

First team decided today. As the teams are posted I will put them all together in a spreadsheet, same as has been done the past couple of years. Frankston rolloff was completed today on a tough condition, qualifying was through league scores, with the top 15 Women and top 15 Men playing off...

Steevie As "instructed", I am publicly acknowledging your part in my little triumph, last week. Can you remind me again, what it was that you did? LOL See you Saturday morning for the roll-off Sumo

I bowled with Ruth Guerster, Peter Bott and Ron Kapitz at Mentone in the Munsters 4 bowler team league in the early 80's. Ruth gave me the nickname Shpeedy (as in Speedy Gonzales from the cartoon) cos I was so fast to the foul line, so fast down the lane and went at things like a bull at a...

A big thank you to everyone who has posted here and also to everyone who passed on congrats last night. The few minutes afterwards are such a blur, I hope that I was able to respond properly to everybody that came up to our lanes. A very big thanks to: Barry Dodds who was on our pair and...

Hey Mary I think you're right on both counts... Fundraising should be shared by all, not just the few and Whatever way is used to get the qualifying list together is unimportant, the cream will rise to the top in the matchplay. As an aside, not only does cream rise to the top of the milk...

Sue is a lovely lady to bowl with. We have shared the same pair as Sue and Belinda so far this season in International Doubles. Their good company makes it worthwhile putting up with bowling at Dandenong! Sumo

Thanks Topher, Thanks Jason, Very nice resource Sumo PS Jason, The Sumo must have been released during my enforced lay off (10 years) with a stuffed elbow. My nickname is more a visual thing, although we are soon to start work on making Sumo more like "Skinny Sumo". 32 kg to go

Hey Jason Tried going thru the parent URL. I get to the arsenal and when I hover over each ball the message in the bottom left says javascript:; If I open the link nothing changes except the message says done. If I open the link in a new window, I get the "can't find server" message. Tried...

Can't seem to get beyond the opening page. Maybe his provider is having problems? Does the site usually have drill specs and an insight into the predicted variations in roll etc from each drilling? That would be very useful.

Another popular thread you've started here, Knuckles! No replies in three days! Sumo

Granted, but you're sick and tired of eating the same lunch every day, why doesn't the lunch maker listen that I want some variety.....oh darn it's me, I'm so embarassed! Wish I knew the Tattslotto numbers for the next draw and remebered to put in an entry. Sumo

Amflite at Moorabbin has their reformation meeting this Wednesday Feb 7. Prize fund for the just completed will be distributed at 6.30 then refo meeting from about 7pm. Bowling will start the following Wednesday. Had 14 teams of four this season and expect about the same again. If you want...

Joe To get an answer from the TBA, the post from Angy needs to go into the TBA forum. The TBA don't monitor other forums or respond to posts in other forums. In my opinion, the availability of coaching, for all levels of bowler, needs to be more organised. Some of the initial criteria are...

Book yourself in with Patrick Birtig at Moorabbin, only a short drive from Chadstone. Sumo

Big thanks to all my Team AMF colleagues. No ego's, no bitchiness in our team for the whole weekend. We may not have had the best results, but we did team together very happily. To the KP men: sorry we rained on your parade, but you have to be congratulated on the way you took this upset...

ABC/WIBC list? No recent balls are on that list, cos they went out of vogue in 2005. Perhaps they meant the USBC list! Sumo

Yes Philby, 11 matches plus positional Can't wait Sumo

The Final teams are in. If anyone's name is misspelt please accept my apologies in advance, I have gone by the information provided by many and extracted from others! Can't wait for Dunn Shield! Sumo With more chins than a warehouse full of mannequins.

For Melboleo, who is claiming offence at my sign off in the previous post, please read it as Sumo with more Yamamoto's than a Tokyo phone book PS Yamamoto is Japanese slang for double chin and Sumo represents part of my heritage

Okay Back from interstate so here is the official Sumo endorsed spreadsheet Sumo With more Chins than a Beijing phone book

Latest teams list. Just Chaddy ladies and KP teams to go. Sumo

First of all, I work part time for AMF but my experiences were the same before working for AMF. The 2 leagues I bowl in are in 2 different AMF centres. There has never been any problems with prize funds being paid out. One league pays out approx. $40,000 each season. We finished 3 weeks ago...

Still waiting for Boronia to post their results, Chaddy to get a ladies team together and Keon to hold a roll off, but here are the teams based on the results to hand so far Sumo
