Two Houses in Mobile both AMF. Skyline Lanes and Camellia Lanes. Best fall League at Camellia is the Thursday Night men's league starts at 6:30, 5 men teams handicapped 20+ teams big strike pots. Skyline Lanes Monday Night King pins starts at 6:30 5 man teams handicapped 2nd games doubles pot can make a good week if you win. 3 Man scratch Classic on Wednesday nights night starts at 7:00. Tournaments Double Diamond, Emerald Coast, and Louisiana has some killer tournaments that go year round. Look me up when you get in town.

Thank you s1nger1.  I will most likely look into the Thursday mens league and have just recently been talked into a league in Pensacola on tuesday nights that pays real good.  sounds good with all those tournaments.

I know s1nger1 is still down there and can provide better details, but when I was there Skyline was run by bowlers (lots of tournaments, better leagues, equipment maintained better...) and Camellia was run by an AMF bean counter.  Not a bad house, but didn't seem to cater to serious bowlers as much.  There also used to be a small house across the Bay, but don't remember much about it.

S1nger1 - is Russ still bowling or own the pro shop at Camellia?

Russ is drilling from his house. Not sure if he is bowling this year.
