10 minutes later, he comes back and tells me that the drill chart that I have is far from what he still has on file. I told him it was 6 years ago and I have made changes and tweaks to my game. He stated I may have made too many changes. So he scans and sends me my old drill chart.
Being that March 4 is my birthday and I have a new ball and shoes coming my way, I think I may use my old drill chart for the new ball to see if I can get my A game back.
Mind you, when I was bowling back then, I maintained a 215 average over 3 leagues. So I must have been doing something right.
Now I just have to decide which Big B ball I'm going to get.
Just thought I'd share.
WOOT!

Wow. Would that we could all have pro shop guys with that sense of initiative and service.

He was just good like that and thank you. He scanned all of his hand-written drill charts and kept them on file.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in a pretty and well preserved body; but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming. "Wow, What a @*#% ride!!!"

This guy maintains a 230 average with a houseball.
That's very hard to believe on today's lanes and lane conditions, unless that house has BVP balls as house balls.

He was just good like that. If he could fit his fingers into a ball somewhat comfortably, he could strike with it.
Plus the house his shop was at was a consistently dry THS.

I don't doubt it. The "manju-scented ahole" speaks very well of you.
Speaking of which, I'll see him next week.
You gonna come and play on the Mainland anytime soon?

Why don't you bowl? They put on a good tournament here.
For me, bowling in Hawaii would be a good vacation ruined.
