    TotalBowling Upgrade

    Forum looks great. One question though. Am I able to restore the ability to have 40 posts per page? Makes everything so much easier.

    EBONITE NSW Sport Series Event #3 - Blacktown

    The times I've helped dad do it, it has been. We've literally done the numbers and drawn them out. I don't know if dad has done them all like that, and if time was a little short then it's possible that it's just been straight down the squad list. Cow

    EBONITE NSW Sport Series Event #3 - Blacktown

    Off the top of my head, we can do this, but all scores will have to be input manually. Which after what happened at Rooty Hill, we were planning to back up the scores anyway. We can do the same thing here and that way have it set up for a league on the day allowing for the computer to do the...

    Petraglia is he the best ever?

    But he wasn't lucky to avoid any major injuries? Many top level athletes have injuries that are either genetically in them, or just one unfortunate accident. We are reminded of Lleyton Hewitt's woe's 4 times a year. I'm sure he has done everything in his power to stay fit and healthy during his...

    Petraglia is he the best ever?

    One of Weber's titles was a regional. Petraglia was the first to win National title across the '6 Decade' time span. I guess we'll have agree to disagree. Cheers, Cow

    Petraglia is he the best ever?

    It's an amazing achievement, no doubts, but the wording makes it sound even more remarkable, he won titles over a 46 year period. 14 on the National Tour and 8 Senior events. Earl Anthony won 50+ titles including his senior titles, over a much smaller time frame. While Petraglia's commitment to...

    EBONITE NSW Sport Series Event #3 - Blacktown

    Well, with how good the edge played there last year, granted it was a Short Oil Pattern, that might be a little harder to do. I was thinking of a Medium or a Long, considering we just had a Short. I will look into the options. Getting harder to find patterns we haven't bowled on yet. Cow

    EBONITE NSW Sport Series Event #2 - Rooty Hill

    I'll check with dad when we're both home tonight and see if there was a final sheet of some kind that was remotely close. For some unknown reason the computer system didn't want to input all of the scores, and we had some issues with lane movements from about the 3rd game onwards. At the end of...

    Understanding the value of a good spare game

    Source is Wikipedia, but I'm sure the references down below would be able to point you in more direct location. From Walter Ray Williams, Jr.'s Wiki page. "He is known for several PBA achievements: Record highest season spare percentage (88.16%, 655/743; 2004–05) and single-pin conversion...

    Understanding the value of a good spare game

    Sorry to be picking on you here John, but please clarify spares. If you mean any and all spares then I doubt anyone on the planet is 95%. If you mean non-splits then maybe, MAYBE, Walter is there. 95% is sick good. That's one miss in 20. Think about that... That's not leaving the 9 in the...

    Understanding the value of a good spare game

    Wanna try that on a Short Oil pattern? If you hook it on a house pattern you find yourself subconsciously taking the small amount of hook the plastic generates into account for your spares. Then, on a short pattern it hooks, and on the longs they do go dead straight. I've struck on short oil...

    Bowling for your education, super impressive

    I'm well aware, and some of these young kids are pretty damn good. All the Youth level bowlers can't compete for money, only for SMART money, for some of the guys I bowled with, this added up to quite a lot over time. Maybe I was lucky enough to be at WSU with some of the kids who had done...

    Understanding the value of a good spare game

    Definitely house shot tips. Hooking the plastic isn't recommended. It's a whole lot easier to throw it dead straight, and it completely takes the lane out of play. Something that is of up most importance on anything harder then a house patten. Cow

    Bowling for your education, super impressive

    The money for the SMART accounts can only be used for college costs. Which includes everything from tuition, living fee's, and even buying a car I believe. Some kids get some pretty good rides through college because of scholarship from the school, and their own SMART accounts. Cow

    EBONITE NSW Sport Series Event #2 - Rooty Hill

    Hey Everyone, The pattern for the upcoming Sport Series will be the WTBA Stockholm pattern. I think it's 34 feet in length if memory serves me right, and I haven't bowled on it before and I don't think it's been laid for any tournament over here before (unless it was for seniors, I don't really...
