Phil didn't start the original Track. The original Track was started in Ohio in basically a garage with a guy pouring balls by hand in the 80s? (Look for old balls called Star Trak). Columbia Industries bought Track and brought the company to San Antonio. Phil headed up the Track team and the division took off.
After some issues, Phil found himself out at Columbia (roughly 2001/2002?). Phil eventually bought Dynothane from Storm as Storm owned the rights but was doing nothing with the brand. Phil started to create cores and covers with Storm before moving the brand back to Columbia in 2005 I believe.
In 2007 Ebonite bought Columbia and everything under the Columbia umbrella, and in some sort of agreement, when Phil went back to Columbia, Dynothane became part of Columbia, so the Dynothane brand went to Ebonite in the purchase. This is when Phil eventually started 900 Global. Phil took that brand and did very well before leaving and started Radical with Mo.
This is by no means a full list of everything Phil has done. He deserves a big hand for everything he has done for the bowling industry.
