How to choose a driller?
« on: June 01, 2004, 09:37:56 AM »
As some of you know, I asked for some advice on good drilles in Kandsas. Well, I have decided on 2 and both seem perfect! Is there a question I should ask or something to look for to make the decision easier?  LMK. Thanks in advance. Kyle

BowlingDude300 -- In addition to the other factors mentioned, is one of the drillers more accessible than the other?  If other factors are equal, choose that one.  --  JohnP

I am able to contact one by email and the place is 30 minutes closer. Plus, if I went to college in that town I would have a bond/frienship built by then. I think I will just go to him. Makes most sine. Thansk for help every1. Kyle

Kyle,
How's it going? Make sure you find one with patience, and willing to share what he knows. Test the waters when you first get to his shop, make sure he doesn't mind you hanging around asking questions, I think YOU'll do that a lot. I enjoy the young kids hanging around asking questions.  You have a great curiosity for the game, and you ask good questions about balls and lane conditions. We need more young bowlers like you coming up to keep the game going. I enjoyed dealing with you. Are you planning on going to Witchita?  Great bowling school!

Hey Doug! Its been a while... I am actually considering Lawrence. Their program is getting better every year. In fact, they won nationals this year. The driller I have been talking to a lot is building his pro shop in Lawrence. I can contact him through email and like you mentioned about asking questions... I have probably already flooded his inbox. LOL. Yeah, in a few weeks we are planning on getting together and drilling up a test ball/junk ball to try out new fits. I am pretty excited. It will be nice to have all my equipment fit right and feel the same. WEll, good to hear from you.

Kyle
