    I'll be out there May 2nd and 3rd bowling. This will be the first year in a while that I won't be bowling the day I land. Hopefully the practice time in Reno will translate to better scores (not that I can bowl much worse!)

    Just found out I will be going. Filling in for a friend who can't go. Bowling May 24th and 25th.

    Not sure what I am taking as far as equipment but from everything I saw need surface early.
    I am thinking right now about getting a Revolt Havoc or Vengeance.
    Equipment:
    Motiv: Forza, Forza Redine, Venom Shock, Tag
    Storm: Sky Rocket
    Track 100P Spare Ball

    To be drilled: Motiv Jackal

    Surface for sure. Last year on the patterns I had good look with 1500 grit on my Hyper Cell.

    Plan on same surface this year as well with my Haywire, Nirvana and Hyper Cell transitioning to my Disturbed later in blocks. If I end up getting Hy-wire that will likely be left at OOB surface.

    Sweet! How'd you end up in totals this year?

    Haven't heard from you in awhile. Hope all is well.
    Our schedules didn't sync up this time to meet up for a beer. We don't go until July 4 weekend.

    Really looking forward to Las Vegas next year.

    Ended up at 1790 this year, had a good doubles set but missed the transition early in Singles. All is going well and hopefully we can get that beer in one of these years (we went really early and you are going later). Vegas next year should be good, have some things other than gambling to keep entertained.

    How have you been?

    My only suggestion is to bowl as early as you can cuz it tends to get a bit on the warm side starting towards the end of April, and a tad warmer going forward into July! lol
