Congrats Joe on yr marketing of this tournament. Looking forward to the competition. Couple of notes, I bowl Moorabbin and Dandenong Gary Z is at Knox not Dandy. Ross Ward bowls at Frankston and Dandenong Catch you soon Sumo

Hey Joe Please add Peter Wills to the entry list - What time is check in? Thanks Sumo

Hey Graham Nice redesign, very easy on the eyes Well done Sumo

Spanner Maybe your league should also consider minus one point for 50 pins below average (or 25 below ave). Perhaps that would stop the "sandbaggers" in their tracks? One doubles league I bowl in has a drop rule in place. If your entering ave is 175, then the lowest your average can fall...

One more "sleep" until Dunn Shield and I can't wait. I hope the competition is tough but everyone competes in the very best sporting spirit. Good Luck to one and all.....BRING IT ON! Sumo

LOL, nice comment Chucker. Sumo

Udo Dusek passed away in the early 80's. Worked with Udo for a short time, he was a REAL Gentleman. Ruth Guerster has retired from the Bowling scene. Ruth was a good friend, but I haven't been in contact in recent times. I'll try to catch up and post any news of interest to the bowling...

Can also recommend the Buckingham Motor Inn, 1130 Nepean Hwy Highett, 03 9555 0011. It's about 5 mins south of Moorabbin Bowl. We used to put our interstate work colleagues there when they were staying for a few days. Never had a complaint. They have a website www.thebuckingham.com.au Sumo

Mac is right, Gary. Sumo bowls for Moorabbin not Dandy. Also good assessment of Knox methinks! Sumo

Gary, Should we be afraid of Knox............. don't think so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sumo

Correct cowman, I checked all this out with Peter Coburn before and after the last revision of the World rules. (TBA rules fall in line with the world rules, not the ABC rules) Sumo

Maybe a dark horse in the Mens would be Mentone? Sumo

Leviathan To clarify 1) If there is a thumb hole and a balance hole, then you need to cover the thumb hole with the hand 2) If there is a thumb hole but no balance hole then you have the option of covering the thumb hole or not. In both cases the ball will be weighed in...

Naturally, this is all legal. Currently, if the ball has a thumb hole, it must be covered by the palm of the hand. Otherwise the balance provisions are identical to any "normal" drilling. If there is no thumb hole then a max 1oz top vs bottom wt is required, same as side wt finger wt etc...

The ultimate in high revving players, have the thumb exited early, the hand under the ball and then transfer the ball position projecting the wrist ahead of the ball. This breaks the wrist position open and the fingers accelerate through the release. The position change generates the optimum...

Congrats to Mary and Barry, hope married life treats you kindly. Thanks for the photo Cameron. Sumo

Oh Sparkle, how witty you are....NOT. If you want to try to stir up trouble, do it openly, face to face. Sumo

Congrats Paul and nice series as well, 223 - 300 - 258 = 781 Head to head tie of 258 with Warren was awesome to watch, both hitting the pocket flush, frame after frame. Sumo

Congrats to all, had the pleasure of watching the first part of the roll-off before going off to bowl at Moorabbin. Especially, congrats to Sharon Dodds, your development as a bowler over the past three years has been very good to watch. To Mary and Barry, good luck next weekend, I hope...

Jase You can use the same "clean" towel to wipe your ball and shoe, but don't blame anybody else if the oil transfers onto your shoe sole from the towel! Makes a lot more sense to keep one towel for the ball and another towel for the shoe, if your centre is so dusty that it's a problem. Why...

For Artistic Content: In League I sent a pin spinning back down the middle of the lane to about 20 feet from the pins. It continued to roll in a big circle with the head of the pin in the middle of the lane, went around about 7 or 8 times. For power: Also in League, ten pin conversion at...

I was checking out a web site building program and came across the site www.subservientchicken.com part of a Burger King USA promotion. Tickled my wishbone, hope you enjoy it. Subservient TV is an advert from the promotion. Could be slow to load if you are not on DSL. Sumo

Who's on First As an aside, for those too young to know this reference or have lived under a rock, the late, great Abbott and Costello had this Vaudeville skit and used it in some of their films. Try this link for the soundtrack: http://susie1114.com/WhosOnFirst.html Cracks me up...
