Anyone know whats up with PDW?
« on: February 11, 2005, 02:04:58 AM »
Seems like he has not had any luck this season.  I don't remember seeing him on TV, and now I see he got smoked in 4 straight.  Does anyone know if it's just an off year, or if has any injuries going?

He was on tv for about 30seconds, during the atlanta , when they showed him bowling with a kid who had some disease.

haha  seriously?  I have been bowling on it a little and have seen nothing of the sort.  45 units of oil is a "flood" around here...

45 units?  I don't think I've seen that much in the entire house in the last month...

ours shot is being put down on relatively new synthetics with Defense oil...  that stuff doesn't seem to budge, regardless of the amount of use.  

Yeah 45 units... its actually been a welcomed change as the house shot isn't anywhere close to that much.  If I had to guess, I would say 25 -30 units maybe 35'...don't really need anything more than a medium pearl reactive...if that much.

If you think 45 is a lot, just wait till you get to Baton Rouge...66 units

Pete did not bowl all that bad (excluding the 1st game) But Forkel had a little Magic this week.

Also...

I bowled on the US Open pattern last night at Carolier. The way that the heads burnt up so quick I feel that his game will match up real good on it giving him a good chance to win it.

Jeff,

Were the guys using a lot of particle or sanded balls?
Carolier's heads usually don't burn up. But they've been using a lot more oil this year and we only bowl 3 games per.

"Units" is always such a nebulous term anyway. I often ignore the amount specified and just look for ball reaction.

FWIW, best of luck this week; your accuracy should hold you in good stead.

He simply is not bowling high enough scores to win this year, at least so far.

I'd truly doubt that, since the Tour is how he makes money to feed his family.  Unless he inherited millions of dollars and doesn't care.

Considering the fact that he had enough money to drop out of high school and join the tour at 16, I wouldn't doubt that he has plenty of money already.

Anyone who thinks Pete Weber is rolling in dough is either crazy, or smoking too much weed.

Remember the tour stop a couple of (3?) years ago, where Dick was bowling in a Senior PBA event, and they got Dick on the phone after Pete won?  Pete told his father that now that he had a few bucks in his pocket, he could pay him back some of the money he owed him.

Yeah how many ex wifes and kids does he have.  He'd have to a pro golfer to pay for all of them.
