CRD: Your last response goes to the heart of communication with you. Read closely what I said in my previous post:

 
quote:
I agree that the factory cover surface should be advertised accurately. Obviously, a mistake was made on the website. I too would rather have the correct info up front.


then you replied:

 
quote:
I also noticed that once again, when your fave company has made a boo boo, you can't really address it with anything other than stating that it's not that important.  


Huh?? What goes on in that head of yours that consistently produces really obvious disconnects? It's not just this -- there is a pattern of it happening over and over. You talk about 'funny' all the time, but there isn't anything funny about you not responding to what's actually said. I'd appreciate an honest explanation.

 
quote:
I respect the guys who come on here and post coherent, right to the point posts about Lane #1.  


Well, here is the translation in CRD speak -- "these guys have never called me out on my stupidity, so based on that they're OK in my book".

Wow, if that's how you evaluate things, it's sad. To come on a forum and get your panties bunched up because you're called on the carpet shows extreme mental weakness. Inverted1 and myself are able to go at it without any animosity because he's able to dish it with real background and knowledge, and where appropriate, take it and be honorable enough to deal with it. Maybe a role model you should consider.

Damn, son, you truly are one conceited snob. You contradict yourself, really do have a condescending tone when you post, you're just a total piece of work.
 


What's your obsession with conceit or being a snob? Arn't you more interested in the truth than acting like a wounded animal? What from the following isn't true:

1) You avoid and deflect
2) You know nothing about Lane#1 equipment, which is odd since you're constantly trolling in the Lane#1 forum.
3) You don't really know if cover prep is actually 90% or 70% or some other XX% of reaction.
4) Regardless if cover is 90% or 70% of reaction, you couldn't discuss the techniques of cover preparation (abralon pad vs. brillo pad) if your life depended on it.
5) You don't rely on a core to make the ball move and the pins dance. I guess that means we should all be saving money and using cheap pancake core equipment.
6) The 'skills' you supposedly possess (because you remind us repeatedly) are yet to be shared.

Would you want to communicate with a bowler with a profile like yours? Do you know if Rocky is any different, or is it just the case of scraping bottom to add to your inner circle? Frankie Abralon and Harry Ballsogna arn't enough?

Back to bowling...You have to have some redeeming value, and I'd like to find it. So here is a question where you can add something with a real answer -- If cover is 70% of reaction instead of 90%, where is the other 30%? You've made it clear it's not the core, so what is it?

Has anyone actually contacted Lane 1 to inquire about whether 4000 grit surface on the Dynamo is a misprint as jls states? I emailed them this morning asking about it. I will post their reply when I receive it.

I did not want to get in the middle of your exchange with CRD but since you mention me by name, you leave me no choice. I don't have a profile like CRD. I do not use a profile so I can freely express my opinion without others denigrating my comments because they have a higher average.

CRD has a 217 average so that speaks for itself. But you have a 230 average so does that mean you are superior? I know you admit that you are a house hack but with all your supposed knowledge of core and coverstock, you use this knowledge and all your Lane 1 balls in one house on the same shot?

The measure of how good a bowler is in my opinion, in tournaments, whether scratch or handicap. How have you done in tournaments when you are competing on a tough shot and going head-to-head against people? I know I mentioned this before and I don't want to toot my horn but just to give you a dose of your own "condescending medicine" when you said that CRD is scraping bottom which is a clear reference to me, Steven, I have 3 ABT titles, the last one was in January, 2008 here in the Bay Area. What have you got? How have you fared in tournaments? Please enlighten us and if you really have more than this then I will bow to your superiority.

I believe it was Jim Ohio that posted that it was told that it was a misprint.

I think his post is in the locked thread started by Storm.

Decided to check this out directly with Lane 1.   According to them, the ball is at 4000!!!!!!!

According to Buddies,  the ball is at 4000.

By watching the video on the Lane 1 site shot on a house shot,  it would appear that the ball has decent length,  way too much length for a cover at 1000.

Rocky: You felt compelled to make disparaging comments about me in Nicanor's thread, where I didn't address you in any way. As far as 'you leave me no choice', you had a choice there, and made a rude one. So please, spare me the false indignation. If you have something to say, do it directly.

I don't disagree that this is one good measuring stick.

Rocky, I need to know more about the ABT before answering. 3 titles are impressive, but is it scratch or handicap? Is your competition limited in any way by average limits? I'm asking because you have a high league average of 185 since the 2003-2004 season. With a 185 THS average, are you really competing (and winning) head-to-head against 220+ average bowlers?

What false indignation? You called me out and I responded. I did not make any disparaging comments about you. I shared my opinion of how you post and denigrate people on this board after you commented that my buddy Nicanor is complaining. What's the matter? The truth is getting to you now? And I addressed my comments to you directly, didn't I?

Steve, Steve, Steve, I have already told you what I got. Do not respond to a question with another question. Again:
 
1) Do you use all your core and coverstock knowledge and Lane 1 balls on the same shot in the same house?
2) How have you fared in tournaments?

Also to be fair, I will answer your question about ABT if you reply to my two questions first. And since I ask first, it is but natural that you respond first, right?

If you continue to dance around this, then that just means you have got nothing which means all your supposed "expertise and superiority" only exists in your own mind.

For the most part, yes. I used to bowl in multiple leagues across different houses. Three of my sanctioned 300's have been in different houses. But I'm a single league house hack right now.

quote:
2) How have you fared in tournaments?  


OK, but I don't have multiple awards to discuss. I bowl only uncapped scratch, so I'm matched up against solid talent, which almost always consists of quality PBA players (current and former). I've made to the finals in several WCST tournaments. Lots of checks, but no first place wins. The last Regional I bowled (in Dublin -- your neck of the woods), I just missed going onto Sunday match play. At that level (and at my age) I'm happy to finish in the top half of the field.

Probably my most prized finish was in the 2005 California State Tournament. I finished 3rd Scratch singles. As you know, the Cal State tournament is the largest in the nation. Over 7,000 bowlers participated that year. My 794 scratch singles set held as top in the tournament for almost two months, but was toppled by two other guys towards the end.        

It's been fun going down memory lane. I don't know what all this has to do with anyone making the effort to acquire cover preparation skills, and then wanting to exchange information.

Now please give some insights into the ABT. Does the ABT allow PBA members to participate? Honestly, I'm interested in how your 185 league average translates to competing in scratch tournament competition.

There was no dancing. And my supposed "expertise and superiority" is something you've fabricated in your own mind. Anyway, I look forward to learning about the world of ABT.
