Good post Beans.

As Az said this is a public site and Chris comments and opinions and may be posted on his free time, the problem is that when someone works for a proshop and says publicly that X + Y company sucks...People tend to put that together. I know I did.

I thought that Beans Pro Shop impressions were that Visionary and AMF sucks, lol

AZguy,

I have tried to take that approach with Chris several times. I do feel it is his right to post what he wants and when he wants.  BUT.....He has my signature at the bottom of his posts and to some people that makes him a representative to my business. When you get 17 PM's telling you what your employee has posted and how it makes me look bad and they will not buy my products because of it. Then I no longer have a choice but to protect my business and my customer base. He has been warned and this was his last FREE pass.

Thanks  beans

I totally understand. Didn't in any way mean to say you did/do not have that right, just posting ( probably shouldn't had) my opinion.

Again, Best of Luck in the future with your company and all it's endeavors.

I have had moderate luck with Visionary but that was pre 2003 when I signed with Lane#1.  I have had some of my biggest scores and tourney wins with AMF so that statement is truly false...LOL!!

I signed with Lane#1 because I truly had the BEST reactions with their stuff. I had contracts on the line with Brunswick and Storm at the same time but I had the best results with Richie's stuff. Next to Lane#1....AMF was my favorite ball company at the time..

I just laugh and laugh.. you guys can post all you want about how Lane #1 charges too much or how ebonite balls die.. but once I say a company isn't very good you start bickering? LOLLLLLLL.

I love it, just absolutely love it. What a waste of time 99% of you are...

Thomas/Beans,

I think most of us realize by now that Mr. Moyer does not speak for you nor your Pro Shop. Since he has your Pro Shop name in his signature block, others and ballreviews newbies may believe he does speak for you and your shop.

I think you should not apologize for his mistakes and some of his posts which have ben offensive to many people. I also think you should not have to apologize for him he is certainly old enough to take responsibility for his own actions. I do think you should ask him to remove your pro shop name from his signature block so this can't happen again.

I certainly hope Lane#1 and Richie does not hold Moyer's opinions against you and your shop.

To think that I'm a "one-percenter" might be a reach.  However, I can't help but realize several facts.

You're having words, on the internet, with a teenager.

A teenager that's, let's see if I can remember, proclaimed himself to be part of a college bowling team he hasn't even tried out for.

Claimed that Visionary, a company not much unlike Lane #1, a David in the sea of Goliaths in the bowling business, along with AMF, are simply not that good to begin with.  I'm not familiar with the number of total titles that AMF & Visionary have to their credit over the past four or five decades on the PBA, LPBA, or regional stops but, safe to say, it's a lot more than Lane #1.  Heck, Visionary isn't PBA endorsed and Lane #1 can't surpass them.  However, I will never state that Lane #1 builds, designs, pours, or markets a sub-standard product.  Why?  Because my IQ surpasses my shoe size.

Beans, you have a great reputation on this site and amongst the Lane #1 community.  You've stated that Mr. Moyer, a sort of "protege", has a vast amount of knowledge for the sport of bowling and the business of drilling equipment.  Together, it appears that you're quite able to take care of your customer base with ball choices, surface prep, and drilling suggestions.  More's the pity that with time comes wisdom and experience.  One can only pray that tact comes along for the ride.

230, was going to type a little of the same thing in terms of the youth aspect.....ahhhhh....what it must be to be young again....and know everything.

Yes, I was probably the same at 19, but as time goes along, wisdom somehow seems to replace stupidity.....or at least the thought that amongst men, one is a god!

Chris, I've thrown Lane#1 in the past.  Had 3 SCBs, a Pearl Uranium and a Silver Dianomd.  I liked the SD, but overall, none matched up with me.  Does that mean they are crap???  Though not stated specifically by you, I could easily ascertain that since Lane#1 doesn't seem to be used much on the Pro Tour that they must suck and maybe I might even throw in the excuse that I feel they lack the required performance.  It's my opinion just as it's yours to say what you'd like.

However, both are small companies to say the least.  I've seen one place in my area selling Lane#1.  Actually, I don't think Wicks in Dallas is selling them anymore.....so there may not be any places in my general area selling Lane#1.  Does that make them bad because they aren't in my area and because I didn't like them?  No.

What it comes down to is thinking before you speak.  Opinions are fine.  But bad mouthing a company because you can't match up with them is not the way to present yourself as a driller for yourself much less someone else with as much time in this site as Beans.  

Tact is a wonderful thing.....learn it...you're going to need it to say the least.
