Congrats on your wins guys... From what I saw, it was some good, solid bowling

Hobart... AMF Moonah Bowl 162 Main Rd Moonah... Just so you can googlemap it ;) Martin Cash Motel is about a drive, 3 wood and a chip from the Bowl (600m) :D

Jetstar.... it says that in the first line of Paul's post... Hotel in the Martin Cash

If you have a drilling you like on a Storm ball.... Put that same drilling, using the same method, on any other ball. Just because it's Storm's instructions, doesn't mean you can't use that on a Hammer. A 4.5" pin, with MB 4" from PAP, with a 4" pin buffer, will work on any asymmetric...

Look for Brenton Davy at AMF Village (I think)

Any reactive with the pin up too high, will become too much ball. With the pin closer to the axis, it takes the weightblock out of the equation... Using the cover to create skid through the heads, then having the block "lay down" on the backend to create smoothness. Pin placements of 1 - 1.5"...

In my observations, it all depends if you have any head oil. When the heads blow up, urethane has completely sucked for me, as it will grab way to early, even highly polished. I've had more success using a weak shelled polished pearl reactive, drilled weakly. Reactives will still skid further...

Good to see you're still blowing the **** out of racks Funky. Takes a lot of talent these days to trip out the 4-5-7 :D Nice work Sir :)

Can't believe that it's his first either. Just goes to show, that it doesn't matter how great you are, you can still be shafted ;) Congrats Andy

Here's another "grey area" question, that to me, is within the rules. Grab a polished ball... throw a few shots and you find that the ball is a little "squirty" on the pattern. Pick up a microfiber towel that is sold in almost every proshop, and scrub the surface with some force. The...

My understanding in "TBA Sanctioned" events, is dry towel only. That is one of the only differences between USBC and TBA rules from memory.

They should ban all balls sanded with less than 2000 EVERYWHERE :) Fantastic video Mr. Doust

It is, however, no rules have been broken that I can see. Back to the topic.... Our handicap system is 90% of 230... They changed it to 230 because of one person. I did apologize to them.

As far as I know, there is nothing we can do about it. When I get a few spare minutes, I'll have a look at the forum software. There may be a setting, but not sure.

I'll bowl Rachuig again... when it returns to Hobart... :D

Hey Andy... since you're one of the "senior" guys around that went to the states, or maybe even Wayne would know, but didn't Jim Stefanich wear something like that when he bowled his TV 300 back in the 70's? Used to lock in place to keep his armswing in line or something. In the video of his 300...

I basically have 6 different adjustments I make when I bowl... aside from taking the nails out of my shoes and moving left to follow the oil. Hand up the back.. Hand around the side.. Loft it more... Loft it less... Throw it harder... Throw it softer... That's enough for me :)

There's a name I haven't heard of for a long time.... Bruce Peel

Great clips! If only we could get more clips of the legends... Thompson, Mackie, Powell, Prez, Guerster... the list could go on forever

I'm moving to Caboolture! Might actually make me keen to bowl properly again. Only thing is though, freight to send Boags Premium would probably be too expensive. Couldn't lower myself to drink XXXX **** :D

10. Freshly drilled LT-48 with a blunt drill bit scent 11. Whacky Tobaccy (Has to be a green pearl ball)

Steve... I will try to answer this one. It is all about friction. The newer balls on the market rip the crap out of the surface, creating a well defined track area, even in the toughest synthetic panels. There are a lot more right handers in the world, so it only makes sense that the right...

My head is getting dizzy... Too much information :D As long as I can stand here, throw there and they all fall down, and it fits... It'll do

Congratulations to Sarah Lowney for being the 2011 Junior Ranking points leader. Sarah amassed 139 points from 4 events, to win by 1 point from WA's Libby Embury on 138 from 5 tournaments. Kaitlyn Commane finished 4th in the rankings on 130 points from 4 events. Congratulations guys...

No offence, but if I had 8 bogeys, I'd be pissed :)
