Ok. I'll just have to accept that I'm not gonna' see any Saws on the National Tour this year...bummer. (Unless of course, Rudy K. or Micheal H. have an outstanding year!) But, how are they doing in the regional tournaments? I mean, they've got to be doing well there...right?

Does anyone on these forums compete in Regional tournaments with Buzzsaws? If so, how have you been doing? Also, no one gave me a reply as to taking their Saws to the Mega-Buck Tournaments. I'm sure someone has made some kind of money with their saws at these tournaments. Law of averages and stuff!

Come on people, help me out here! Someone has had to have taken their Saws into competition and kicked pin-deck butt some place. Please give some replies to this!I guess what I'm trying to say is I want to hear some success stories about people and their Saws.

Now, I know that just because someone else is successful, it doesn't mean I will be (of course you do know that I won't be accepting this type of mentality!), but It'd be good to have some ammo to throw back at those Saw haters that think they're not worth it. Yeah, more 300's and 800's have been thrown with the Saws, but who has the money to show for it...or had it anyways.

I'm gonna' throw some Saws, some how, some way, I want to use their stuff! Hell, I've been wanting to throw with them now for over...what...five plus years! You all have no idea how bad I want to do this and how much of an impact these forums have had on my decision to want to do this! I want to start bowling so I can have fun again, but I also want to bowl to be competitive and right now I feel I have the best connects possible to do this, i.e. a coach, local Buzzsaw knowledge, and great support from my better half as long as I pay the bills on time! (Will the silliness ever end?!?)

So please, Mr. Clump, Doug S., A_P_K, DrillWizard, jeffrevs, hamsterrevs, anybody, please share your Buzzsaw success stories! If you don't mind please note what you threw, what tournament you were in, your score (if you remember), did you get a trophy, and how much you won. You all can add to this list as you wish. I'll be looking for some replies people! As always, thanks in advance!

Well, I am no PBAer but....
This season, so far, 1 300 and good chunk of change in brackets. My game is starting to feel good so I expect a sweet 800 within a few weeks!

Ya know, I quit bowling for 8 years. Got back into it last year. Threw an Ebonite Nitro for a very long time but bought a Blueberry Buzzsaw. My average jumped a good 10 pins. Wont say it was all because of the ball but it has been a contributing factor!

On a side note, IMO, what other people do with their Saws have no impact upon your game. Buying Lane1 wont put the fun back in your game or money in your pocket. Granted, they make a great bowling ball but one has to be consistent enough to throw big scores and win big money.........

Good luck with your decision. Oh yeah, its all Zen, "Be the ball!" LOL!

"Bring back the Blueberry.......!"

Lane #1 regional staffer Tom "Beans" Bienek, Jr. uses Buzzsaws in the PBA Eastern region tournaments.  I believe he's doing quite well with them.

Cogito ergo bowl

Come to think of it the man who turned me on to Lane 1 is a member here, he competes in a few tournaments house, county, state, and regional alike.  Off the top of my head the team he was on won a local assosciation tournament using Buzzsaws.  Whether or not he cashed in other tournaments is unknown to me right now.

In the old days people used to cut wood with axes.....................now and days...............they just have Executioners do it for them!

Pin_Krusher IS a serious threat to modern day bowling wood as we know it today.

Yeah, Mika lucked (they both bowled exceptionally though) past him in the round of 8 in KC.  Haugen WILL make at LEAST 2 or 3 shows this year, and I wouldn't put it past him to win his first and possibly second title.

I'm BETTER than you because . .

1) I've met the DNL leprechaun
2) I get paid to watch tv.
3) My dad's friend's brother knows Chris Barnes' stepdad.  
4) Kristi's my buuuuuddy
5) I get to witness a man with the speed and revs of Robert Smith combined with the accuracy of the guards in the lobby scene of the Matrix average 240
6) I can throw a better fit over nothing than you can.

Rackattack, can I be like you when I grow up? Have you ever taken your saws to any of the Mega-Buck tourneys? If so, how did you do?
