    Fred's average is 146! And ,,,, like I said,,,,, he give pointers to other senior bowlers! I mean lets face it,,,, most seniors, (iceman not included), would have a Hard Time Getting it UP!! I have to laugh,,, he is pretty full of himself, and delusional! LOL,,, ,,, but,,, BUT painful to watch and hear his ball hit the lanes with all the Boom, of an X-16 breaking the sound barrier!!!

    All kidding aside, I do now have ear plugs that I carry in my bag, for the FEW TIMES our path or Paths might meet! I also carry a mouth guard that protects my teeth, from the grinding that occurs when in his area code!!

    YES FOR THE FIST TIME, I did a few weeks ago talk to him about laying the ball down gently on the lanes.... his reply: " I keep forgetting!!"

    IT must be the water supply, or GMO"S!!!

    I bowled last week filling in on a different league. Two lanes down from me on another team was a guy who was about 6'4". Threw the ball planted back straight no spine tilt and somehow the release was up wards. I have a little loft but man this ball left the guys hand going up in the air. The ball had to get at least five feet in the air and landed at least five feet past the arrows. I've never seen anything quite like it. It was annoying sad thing about it was the guy is good shot a 642 series. Just goes to show you can be successful with almost any style as long as you can repeat it.

    LOL... PLEASE ,,, please don't call lofting 5 foot in the air,, STYLE!!! LOL God help us all, and the bowling lanes if it catches on!! AND, YES,, Fred does on occasion have a 180 or so game! It validates his Lofty style of bowing, and just feeds his ego, and need to teach his STYLE to other seniors in need!

    Well I have to say that's more loft than the guy I was talking about if I see him bowling this fall I try to shoot some video if I can.

    I hear the guy is training to enter the Punkin' Chunkin' contest this year... He won't use a machine -- he'll just throw it...
