Very expensive to bowl. But you can win a lot.
The league only has 3 teams over 1000.
We have a 10 pin drop rule and 1\4th are under that.
We have only 23 teams this year because one dropped 3 days before we started. The 4 on a waiting list had already committed to other leagues by then.

That's why you have H\C and scratch.
That sucks! A few weeks ago I shot a 311 with handicap in game 3 and lost all of my brackets.Originally Posted by foreverincamo

Pretty sure our jackpots are all handicapped, but I'm not 100% sure. With all the other ways to bet, brackets, Texas Holdem, strike jackpot, mystery score, clean game pot, we can't do separate jackpots. Especially with a huge majority averaging under 190.
If you're into bowling for money you're doing it wrong. Pickup another sport
Most is just fun money not trying to make a living. Over the years there have been bowlers who made more money as amateurs than a lot of the pro's did. Chris Barnes did really well as an amateur.
This post sounds like a very entitled rich kid complaining that his new 300 series BMW isnt an M5...
Well, no. But, yeah, that would be terrible to have a 300 series that isn't an M5.
