All 4 Aussies through to the Masters - great effort, and good luck!

There are some people with waaay too much time on their hands. YouTube - Cat Laser Bowling

Congrats Kate & Brian - do Rachuig shirts come in size 000?

Morty isn't a senior until next year.:D

Morty you could be our guinea pig - get the train up for Champs and fly back from Townsville or Cairns. We will need a trip report...

Going South - can leave Thursday, arrive friday, leave Brissy Mon pm and get back Tuesday (for Townsville). $12.50 per two ball bag for luggage, if you have to pay for it - not too bad. Definitely worth investigating further, and QR reckon they are putting on another tilt train early this...

On the subject of travel, would bowlers consider travel by train? The airlines are basically out in terms of sponsorship, but perhaps QR could be approached to sponsor the Qld State teams by offering say $50 tickets to the rolloffs? It is a long trip, but on the positive side taking as many...

Ryan, As long as you are 18 or more as at the date of the rolloff you can bowl Rachuig or restricted (just not seniors lol).

Oh - and for the record I will be at Robina competing for the honour of representing MY STATE.

Just to be perfectly clear, this post is from me as a bowler, not as a TBAQ officer. Geoff, Mackay is still 4 hrs drive from Townsville, 8 from Cairns and 10 from Brisbane. No matter where the rolloff is held there will be many who are faced with travel costs. Last year the SQ based bowlers...

Oops - make that 14 x 1/8" spacers, as in 14 pieces. Tonx, you're just mean. :D

Not trying to teach you how to suck eggs - I can appreciate that a bidirectional moving jig is expensive. Being a simple person, I was thinking about a more simple approach: Make a square plate with the ball ring centred on it. Make a square holding plate 1" bigger each way that it sits on...

Most bowlers do use the same drill specs all the time. A lot probably shouldn't :) - apart form experimenting to try to get the fit just that little bit better, it is possible to drill balls with slightly different grips to achieve a different roll. The trick is to alter the grip in a way that...

Kirwan will be open tomorrow, some water damage to the approach on lane 7 and we have a leak over lane 1. Ayr is already open, Innisfail and Cairns had planned to open on Monday as well as far as I know.

Sorry, you misunderstood what I said - I accept that the holes you drilled are pitched to 3/8 left/right lateral. However, it would be very unusual for those laterals to actually fit anyone properly, since for most people the middle finger bends towards the base of the thumb and thus generally...

Couple of points - your video comes across as more of a vanity piece than a sales tool. It is far too long and doesn't go into any real details of how the pitches are applied to the ball other than the ones you use for your grip - which I must admit seems a little too convenient as all the...

Should be fine Matt, as long as you can handle bowling with two State reps and a left handed gumby. :D

Hey George, Do you want me to hook you up with a team mate? I have three people looking for a 4th player.

Matt, the entry forms are designed to enter four people at once - you bowl 9 games together, 3 as singles, 3 as doubles and 3 as a four person team. We already have others looking for people to make up teams, so if you make the decision to bowl in the Qld Champs i am sure we can find you a team...

Reading Comprehension: fail. ;)

Ken Sheehan or Terry Wenban? :)

The problem with that is that the results are misleading. It's not a matter of being 'after the challenge'. For me, Nationals brought home just how inconsistent my release had become - and this is on our house pattern which is not as easy as most. When I was bowling in Brissy, I used plastic...

Nothing I could find in the TBA rulebook specifically covering blind scores winning head to head points, so I would suggests Jim's analysis is correct. However, in the (unlikely) circumstance that the bowler already had the point won with the five frames he completed he should get the point.

Evidently it is not just bowling balls that overreact these days.

Hey Jim, Google "WAHSAM".
