    Default T.a.t. True Amateur Tournament - Anyone played it?

    Got a flyer in the mail for "True Amateur Tournaments" the other day. Looks kind of intriguing, but there's a whisper in the back of my head that keeps saying "ABT, ABT....". Has anyone had any experience with these tournaments?

    The ABT was just "et up" with that crap. Can't see how this would be any more cheat-proof, which is why I was asking if anyone here had tried it.

    AFAIK no one on here has or at least has never mentioned it. User DMS asked the same question just about a year ago and no one said they had.

    In my opinion T.A.T = A.B.T or in other words
    Another Baggers Tournament those tournaments
    are just full of sandbaggers like fordman1 said
    a 150 average bowler that is shooting 700+ it is
    just not a fair tournament that is why you'll never
    see me bowling in one of them.

    I'm not all that good of a bowler anymore not like
    I used to be but I'll still take a scratch tournament
    any day over a baggers tournament.
