Hey guys I have a big problem. Last night in league I shot my first 299. Well as you guys know, the secretary has to write down the serial number off the ball you used, and there is were my problem begins. Until last night, I didn't realize that the pro-shop that drilled my ball, drilled a counter balance hole in my serial number totally eliminating the last number! Am I right in thinking that ABC will not recognize my honor score or is there anything that I can do?

Thanks

The award application should say something along the lines of serial number (if legible).  Don't fret about it.  I filled out a 299 award form for a bowler on my league earlier this season.  He shot the 299 with a Columbia test ball that didn't have a serial number at all, and there was no question.  I had the ring to present to him within three weeks of submitting the application.

Congrats on some great shooting!

Serial Number isn't important.  Just put the brand and ball name down and ABC can see that the ball is approved for use.
