The OFFICIAL Ric Hamlin appreciation THREAD.
« on: June 18, 2005, 06:08:18 PM »
I don't know of another person that has:

1) More overall experience with the technical side of bowling, drilling, physics, etc.

and

2) Gets so much crap for it.

I'm just glad Ric has chosen to stick around in hopes he will help educate the general public and broaden their horizons. For that, we should thank him... so thanks Butt-head!

Viva La Relocacion! lol

Ad my name to that hat Nick. I messaged Ric about some questions I had on an arsenal and he got back to me the same day. Very informative. Thanks Ric.

See Ric, everyone appreciates you.  I have no doubt that even with your beliefs on subjects, if a customer came in saying "I want the CG kicked out", you wouldn't stand there and tell him he's wrong.  It may not seem like it on here, but I can tell (and so should everyone) that you wouldn't try to force your beliefs on anyone else...

Now, how's about sending me a zone classic?

I owe him too. Thanks for the new layouts, and especially the new thumb pitch.
They've helped a lot. Now if I can just relearn how to play the lanes...

lol we are not french lol we are quebecers. lol or les quebecois. lol the french are the panzies lol we're the ones that gave you hockey's original fighters like rocket richard and the good ole days of when the canadians had more french quebecers than europeans.

mais oui, merci beaucoup au Ric pi tout leur equipe aux brunswick pour le supporte dans canada.

 Si le monde contaite pas  Brunswick est le officale sponsore de  L'equipe national du  Canada, pi brunswick aussi fait le "lane maintaince " pour les tournoi nationaux.

translation:

 Brunswick has a very strong history and bond with CTF and canadian bowlers,  Brunswick is the offical sponsor for the canadaian national team, And does the lane dressing for the national team trials.

 But yes, thank you very much to Ric and the entire team at brunswick for there continuous and constant support of canuck bowling.
