    Still curious, was there any media coverage of this event in Oz and does anyone know why Japan didn't send pros on their team?

    I'm curious, was there any media coverage of this event in Oz? In the states, even though bowling is a hugely popular participant sport/activity and the US did dominate the medals in the event (and I apologize for that statement in advance to those with the tall poppy syndrome:)), there was zero...

    Looks like the Dream Team actually did win in the teams event. It has been interesting to watch the results and see that the US team of pros, despite winning the doubles the teams and a pair of bronzes in the trios, didn't actually win anything running away by any means. Pretty obvious that...

    USBC Open Tournament 2009

    Anyone know of any Aussie teams entered in next year's event? As its Vegas I thought it may add attraction for the long trip. When I was there this year there was a German team bowling in a squad I watched, they were entered in the Classified division so the USBC must have an agreement with...

    2 handed vs. 1 handed?

    I had actually been a little nervous about this myself, with the CO state tournament in 3 weeks and my trip to the USBC Nationals the first week in June (I had also been wondering if it may throw my current game off - and that's already bad enough as it is:)). Based on your comments here I'm...

    2 handed vs. 1 handed?

    Not to turn this into a discussion on aging, but I have to comment that there's a lot one can do so that deterioration of ability is not inevitable with age. Lots of us work out with discipline to maintain much of their lifestyle. In fact I know some guys that are actually in better shape and...

    The week of the US OPEN

    Great to see you take the time to post such a detailed review of the experience - especially when you are obviously drained by it all. You should feel extremely proud of your performance. You certainly have gained some visibility over here, I'm the only Aussie bowler I know of in this area and I...

    Good Luck Belmo & Walshy

    My hat is off to Belmo for another great showing against the best in the game, and on the toughest conditions (pattern and format) in the game (at least as I've been led to believe). I can't wait to hear from my league buddies on Tuesday night who were super impressed with both Andrew Frawley...
