Greetings! Has anyone else noticed that many tournaments and scratch leagues are putting out flat to reverse oil patterns out. These patterns are tough! An arrant shot to the right (speaking from a righties perspective) sends you skidding to a certain 2-10 split and a tugged shot puts you through the beak. Today's low rg/high diff equipment can only serve you well if you are brave enough to venture off your Zone 2 break point (7 board at approx. 40-45 feet). I am a tweener, bordering on power player, ...

The first place team, Hot Mess, pulled out a complete sweep of Summer Cooler. The second place team, Pin and Tonics, bowled my team and we swept them. This caused them to drop out of ...
A few days ago I went and did some bowling. During this session I tried out some techniques that were mentioned on http://www.bowlingboards.com/forum.php. The first is two finger bowling. The second is tucking the pinky finger. I had never thought much about any of these things at all till I went to the above site and read a little about.
