Hey do you still bowl with the All-Stars on Thursdays? I checked them out a few Thursdays back at Wonderland bowl where I bowl on Thursdays and they were sweet. I worked at a car wash for a guy named Joe Parks, he used to roll in the all-stars league. He talked me into getting started bowling!

Ok well your pretty familiar with CLoverlanes, Im a storm guy so could you give me some advice on a good heavy oil ball to use on their lanes and maybe at Wonderland Bowl. Im a 170 bowler with fairly decent equiptment. Im rolling a Freak made by Track as of now, but looking for a better ball. I really like the skid flip action but I understand it may not be suited for all conditions!

I throw 12-14 mph about average rev rate. 1 year into the sport! Thanks

I bowl in that league Mark Moore is PHENOMENAL, but saying he is without equal is a pretty bold statement, and I think Dave Ewald would have something to say about it

Very good league that's for sure. Tons of ALL STARS, lots of money....you really can't ask for more if you're looking for some serious competition on some tough lane conditions as well.
