With the influx of scores over the past 5 years and with the new technology ball and oil companies have brought to the sport there has been a sharp increase in bowling averages at certain centres. It has become obvious that some centres are easier than others and that bowlers averages don't necessarily reflect one's ability. This raises heaps of issues when rolling off for Walter Devere and other average based events.
I wonder if TBA has ever thought of introducing a PAR system for bowling centres??
eg. Take the centres top 20 bowlers averages and then divide it by 20 to get a mean average. This score would either be + or - 200. So if the mean average of the bowlers was 193 the PAR for the centre would be -7.
Just an idea, no one that I have read has ever tried this anywhere in the world even though it has been talked about for years. Is there a better formula?? Do we really need it?
