Need Help With Taking Over A Pro Shop...
« on: June 30, 2003, 07:08:10 AM »
I am seriously interested in possibly taking over a local pro shop and was wondering what online resources you all suggest.  I need some good reading to bone-up on terminolgy, drillings, equipment usage, definitions, etc...

pick up the 2 books that pnj1957 has for sale. Both are excellent balls for instruction on drilling and fitting balls.

F, I still have the book by Bill Taylor called "Balance".

Classic Products has a 3 day class on fitting and drilling. It is with Mike Riggins. They have these classes at their IN. warehouse and the FL. warehouse.

No thanks, I really wanted the Fitting and Drilling a Bowling Ball by Bill Tyalor {113 pages}...if anyone has one in great condition, drop me a line.

Thanks
