Drilled in Fort Worth
« on: July 01, 2007, 10:52:30 AM »
Can someone please recommend a good ball surgeon in the Fort Worth, Tx area.  One that will take the time to see some of my action and use that info in a new pattern.

I believe Ron WIlliams at Cityview is the best in the area.

Ft. Worth is a big place!  Ron Williams is on the southside, Del Ballard is on the northside.  We are located in Irving to the East.

I use Ron Williams at Don Carter's Cityview in SW Ft Worth.  I heard from EJ, one of the shops workers, that Ron has sold the shop and will be moving it over to Arlington somewhere.  I am not sure who will be moving into the shop, but I was told whoever it was is ready to move in as soon as Ron moves out.

*edit*  I don't know when Ron is moving, but he was still open for business saturday.

I've never got any work done by Ron. I will have to keep him in mind next time. There is a few good pro shops around here as far as I'm concerned.
You can forget about Ballard's pro shop unless you buy the ball there because they charge like 30 extra dollars if you bring one in unless you don't mind that. Brett Cooper is a very good driller there. Every now and then, Del is actully there.
Otis is not a good driller at Hurst. This would be the second time he couldn't drill a ball right.
Jim Askins at Showplace Euless is a good driller who also owns the one in Arlington (Spare Time) from what I was told. I wish he was still at Watauga. For personal reasons, I hate to go into that bowling alley.
I didn't catch his name but the last ball I got drilled I drove all the way to Irving at M and M Pro shop and he was terrific. He took the time of my hand problems and got my new ball drilled perfectly and it was only around 50 bucks which is about the average prices for what I got done.
I couldn't tell you about the one in Cowtown and Westcreek in Fort Worth.
