Don't know where the link is on AMF's site for $3 voucher games in June?!?!? Do u have to email them Real Deal for the voucher? Either way dont know if its only my centre, but manager offered $99 purchase giving 4 games per day for one month, don't know if anyone else has had this offered...

Free bowling won't happen. At AMF every game gets reigstered with the games number going through to Sydney head office supposedly, very tight. In an earlier post, someone mentioned about staff. How do they effect or influence a social bowlers experience? what efforts are made by staff to go...

Just thinking of my centre, aside from 8 no tap, 9 no tap and scotch doubles, presidents shield,they don't offer any other individual tournaments ... Where are the centre championships, with the different divisions???,You can have 150 -, 151-180, open dvisions...By god, I reckon u would get...

Look at many other sports, most if not all sports have decent sponsorships, ranging from small endoresements to sponsorships on a very large scale... Trouble, I am guessing only here atx106, but I think, that sponsors probably have been contacted in the past, and for whatever reason, such as...

Hey, Cass you wrote : "Be supportive, critized AMF doesnt help "Australian bowling sport" becomes better. I thought if you love bowling then you promote it naturally to others without any demandings or expect anything from returns.".... If I do, then I apologise, for its only due to utter...

Just checked it out, 59 bowlers... Doesn't seem like many, for a tournament that is considered as a major tournament!!! No promotion at our local AMF centre, and we have two or three bowlers competing... You think that every centre would want to promote their bowlers, this tournament, and this...

ziesig is through to face belmo

Hi, Anyone get up nice and early to watch the final???

Two games left to go in round of 16 match play, go Belmo!! I'm crossing all fingers and toes here for another 300!!

Love to know what lines Belmo is using... I remember seeing him win the Long island last year and from memory he was throwing it around first arrow with plastic... anyone know?

Wayne, your comment re bowlin being outdated and overpriced, summed it up SO right!! So how do we change the perception of this, as a means to attract new bowlers both juniors and adults back into the sport??? I use to take kids from my school where I use to work to bowl after school once...

Ooops, sorry, Tennasee, not Texas, forget the horse, I'm off to Graceland!!

Ok, I'm moving to Texas Yee Haaaaaa,I'm just gonna saddle up my horse first!!! Trying to think what AMF Aus would give u for 10 games (as a league bowler), I'm guessing 10 games for $40 or around that mark...I know I bowled Sat avo 5 games for $20.. I honestly spend $60 a week on 2 leagues...

I was a member of my local tennis club for many,many years. That entitled me to play anytime with the exception of Sat mornings and afternoons due to competition.. Basically anytime, and as often as I would like. It cost me only $150.. I would be happy to pay $2000 for the same deal with a...

After around 30 posts, what a lot of thoughts and varying views around on this subject. I wonder if there are any AMF big wigs perhaps casting a casual eye on this thread.. I can get a bit down on them at times, but I sincerely want them to have a full house and make money. Good on them, but I...

Gary, $5.50 isn't bad to bowl for a child of a league bowler..I got 4 for $18, no problems there at all. Its the walk in bowlers, u know Mum and Dad with the two or three kids, it gets mighty expensive...Once bitten twice shy!!

I took my 3 kids bowling today. We had a game each, being a league bowler I got 4 games for $18. I then paid $6.95 for each of us for lunch, then another $10 on the game machines/tokens... We arrived say 11.00am, left 1.20pm happy with bouncy balls, toy dinosaurs and a tennis racquet paddle...

Hey Steve, maybe I missed it, but Chris wasn' being an ars*hole to you, so why are you being one to him??? Anyway as a centre owner/manager, why don't u put in the time in answerering a part post of mine. Here it is: "From a happy, but sometimes bemused league bowler whos adult friends...

It does seem pretty rough Chris, being a parent myself of three youngsters I can fully appreciate this. The only thing I would suggest would be to always have your league card on u, that way u avoid the $13.50...Or tell the centre which centre u bowl at and day of the week league u bowl in...

I can bowl on my own at times during the week (phantom leagues), when I am bowling , I don't take breaks, just keep bowling my 4 games.. By end, I know my heart rate was up, around 100-130's(guessing, but I do have some knowledge in this area), sweat all over T Shirt, and dripping everywhere...

Re: The crappiest 30 game of 1968 Funny stuff!!! I think after the dog left his deposit, the counter girls mistakes, I would have followed the dogs example as I'm up for the 12th shot...

Just read all posts here ... This discussion could last for a decade with excellent points both sides.. If we are to devlelop and improve the "sport" of bowling, and if most of us would agree that begins with our humble league bowlers (to which I am proudly in that category) why not...

Ok, anyone out there bowl there?? I work close by and went in one luchtime, and again a couple of months later.. It must be my old eyes playing tricks on me, I swear it looked a tad shorter.. Not sure whether centre is certified or not. Can anyone confirm this.. Please indulge my...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone can confirm whether the Cranbourne Bowland lanes are the full standard 60ft from fouline???? I have only bowled there twice, but they sure look short when standing on the approach.. Maybe its just my eyes failing me... Peace out. LOTP:confused:

Great watch, I agree interesting... In particular the Bolivian approach to this style of bowling., and their absoulte and total adoption of this technique.. Also great to see Duke and Weber in there too.
