AMF Get Your Gear League

[ep1977]

We finally started the league this past Monday. Bad part about that is, since the summer leagues start in September, and the 4th of July and Labor day are both on Mondays, everyone has to fit in 4 weeks of pre-bowling between now and September 12th. UGH!!!

You don't have to do the pre-bowling but since you have to pay the full 16 weeks to get the balls you might as well get your games in.

You're right. Since the only thing we are playing for is the balls (and pride I suppose), there's no need to make-up the missed games, but I want to get my money's worth. The League was just poorly planned on the bowling center's part.

Wow don't know what state you live in but here in NY prices are high. 3 out of 4 of the offered balls sell for over $200 including drilling but not including grips/slugs in the pro shops here.

For $26x16=$416 I will get 2 top shelf balls including drilling, 48 league games on fresh oil, and 32 FREE practice games. Pretty good deal to me.

what house do you bowl in?

We had to choose which 2 balls we wanted last week. Every single person chose the Paradox Pearl and almost everyone chose the Scandal. Those are the 2 I picked as well.

Makes sense to choose those two as they are the highest valued balls available. More bang for your buck that way. I'm going to pick those same two as well.

Also one is asymmetrical and the other is symmetrical, one is polished and the other isn't so it's a good combination. I thought more people would pick the Grudge though.

The Grudge is actually too much ball for a THS, mostly because it has a ton of hook to it.

Man I wish I had found out about this league sooner, I would have loved getting 2 more balls.
