    Default Virtualtournaments.com is GREAT

    I currently enter the tournaments provided by virtualtournaments.com . The website is VERY well ran with very nice and informative people. I print the flyer and pass around my centers to try to get some more people. The competition is good for the tournaments, they offer handicap, scratch 220 and below and scratch over 220. the handicap is 80% of 250 so almost everyone gets some sticks added. you have the option to get into brackets, sidepots, and eliminators wfor each tournament as well. With the tournaments running each week there is plenty of chances to get your hands on some cash. The entry is currently $20 for SINGLES and $26 for DOUBLES. BUT as of April 1st the prices will be going dow. If you may be interested in this idea check out their website and if you would put me down as a reference. My user name on there is the same as here StormBowler13. They offer a referral service where you recieve $5 for every person that puts you down when they enter their 1st tournament. So check it out and dont forget aout me ;-)

    I'm wary of the virtual tournament sites. I see the opportunity to deflate scores for handicap and inflate scores with the handicap. Call it a trust issue.
    There's always one off center in the rack

    All of that is checked and recheck by the directors... You must fax your recap and standing sheet or scan and email it. Once the scores are received if you are in a cash position they call the center or league secratary to verify the scores once again. If anyone is caught cheating or anyhting like that they get banned. And since the accounts are linked to your USBC # its not like you can just make another account and get away with it.

    Yes you will have to shoot over ave to win anything but then again what tournament do you not have to do that? If you know of one I would sure love to know...lol Me for example used a 184 ave this past week and shot 612 scratch. I made it to the finals in 5/5 brackets and finished 10th in the tournament.

    Its a good thing they have going and are always changing it up to make it more fair for all. You should just give it a try. If you want we could maybe even do doubles when that starts back up. I was also wary just like you but now that I have started bowling in them I love it! It add a little something extra for league. Really makes you focus on gettin all the pins possible...

    Also with the Ave and handicap since they have you USBC # they put you book ave into the site so that way if any sandbagging si going on this season then your book ave will be used.. Its whatever is higher of the 2.

    If anyone else is interested in this site please see below and add me when signing up as being referred by me. Thanks!
