When I head back down to San Antonio, Im gonna stop in Arlington to hit up the ITRC, and a few other places as well ( Very fun town )   So Im thinking hey , Ill stop in since Ill be there for the weekend and maybe get a few hours of lessons, thinking it might be $100-200 .. Nope $450 / half day.. Soooooo maybe not so much.. There really isn't a ton of info on the site, other than whats there, bnut not whats included in the $450 1/2 day lesson


I would LOVE to try out all the new technology to REALLY get ahold of what Im doing, and what im doing wrong but it might be a little steep for my taste.. Unless you can really soak up everything they give you in a 3-4 hour lesson.

What do ya think?

The technology is impressive and it would most likely be beneficial but $450 is steep. What does the basic package for $200 do for a bowler?

That would be the one I would be interested in.

Too bad you''re not heading to Florida.  You could go to the Kegel training center.

Kegal looks alot more practical.. Not all the fancy ball release, grip strength , foot pressure computers, but, has all te basics you need and great coaches..

Is there a way to find a alley that has a CATS setup so I can at least get some good video, and consistent rev and speed readings?
