1,000 posts later and a thank you to all
« on: August 07, 2013, 12:40:40 AM »
Well, since first signing onto this site on March 22, 2011 as someone who had been out of the game for over 10 years, this marks my 1,000th post. 

At first, I didn't think I would be as active on this site as I have become.  The big thing that kept me on here is all of you.  In fact, it was vkowalski1970 and  Dave81644 who helped me get off to a good and quick start getting my game back in order along with getting me up to speed with the stuff out there now.  Plus, you both got me trying some Track and the EBI brands (Dave- I still throw the Track 505T that I bought from you over a year ago and it is still the best Track ball I've thrown). 

charlest- always good, sound, technical advise when I've asked for it. 

Gunny- even though I haven't bought any Seismic yet, you have provided me some great info and it is a ball line that I will be looking into.

sps300- Thanks for giving me a great deal on 4 Storm/Roto Grip balls at the end of 2012.  All of them matched up really well for me, and are a huge part of my current arsenal.

Everyone else who has chimed in with any questions I've had have also always been appreciated.

At the same time, thank you for letting me contribute for nearly 2-1/2 years.

A nice milestone; I enjoy reading your posts and most of the others because you can learn about new products and trends in the sport. Keep it going.

Thank you Tommy; always glad to help, but I'd have to say you have been contributing quite a bit on your own these days. I'm sure everyone appreciates that

Tommy - Ditto on the 505t.. definitely a benchmark piece.
Wonder when Track will catch on and make a replacement for it
Always enjoy reading posts from any one of you guys.

Always enjoy reading your posts, and that 505T is a great ball! Best Track ever made in my opinion.

Dave, you have to post more. :D

No idea why they did that; ask the moderators in the BUG REPORTS forum.
