Say Wal-Mart sold bowling balls........
« on: December 26, 2007, 01:18:19 PM »
Ok, say Wal-Mart decided to add a bowling section to it's sports department.  Say they carried around 5-8 of every company's hottest balls with 2 or 3 plastic/entry level balls and sold them at Internet pricing with drilling included.  How many of you would leave your current driller and get your balls drilled there if they had a "Certified" driller, but still paid him a typical $1.50 above minimum wage, hourly wage?  To stir the pot even more, what if no plugging/redrilling services were offered and a no-return on drilled balls policy in effect?  Would you still buy your balls for $50-70 cheaper at Wal-Mart and take the 50/50 risk of a good job/poor job being done?

ive seen a ball from dick's sporting goods certified ball drillers had 3 holes(obviously) all the same size 31/32 with the spand being off one finger by 3/4 inch the other by 1 inch. Im no certified ball driller i learned the old fashion way was tought went to a couple seminars and so on but i wouldn't trust some highschool kid that has a piece of paper saying hes qualified to drill my ball working for a little over min wage. even more so cause how's that person going to know how you throw where your pap is and so on i sure as helll aint going to walk into wally world with my bowling bag on my shoulder

Well first off....this is never going to happen. Walmart likes products moving off the shelves and bowling balls are not going sell.

One word states it all for me why I will not give my business to anyone else:

SERVICE!!

I know I am going to get a excellent product! (A ball with a good pin placement and drilled right!)
