Just a quick intro.

Returned to bowling at the end of 2014 after being away for 25 years. My story on that in another post.

Anyhoot...Bowling in 2 winter leagues (Mom & Wed) and I'll be doing 2 PBA Challenge leagues immediately after.

Currently a member of the 9 Tap Tour, Las Vegas Region with 1 cash. Will be participating in the US Senior Open Pro-Am at the end of May, and I'll be doing the PBA Regional here in Vegas in October.

In the bag - DV8 Vandal #12, DV8 Thug Unruly #12, DV8 Ruckus Schizo #14.8 and a Brunswick T Zone for spares.

Only the Vandal has a dual angle drill at 60x5x30. All of the others have standard drilling. All are pin up.

AND...Glad to be onboard! :)

In league I am only at Gold Coast, but it will me my one and only. Too many mechanical and computer issues each week.

For the 9 Tap Tour I've been to almost all of them here in Vegas.

Thank you.

The 2 best places for bowling are South Point & Suncoast.

While the majority of places are pretty darn good, the Silver Nugget & Gold Coast are probably the worst.

Strike Zone in Henderson isn't bad when the humidity is low, but when it gets up it's extremely bad. So bad that it is dangerous to bowl.

I bowl at Suncoast and you will find the lane conditions vary from left to right and front to back. I also bowl Red Rock which is usually good. I am starting a league next year at Gold Coast. Hope they improve the lanes. They had the Military tournament this year and I heard no complaints.
