I've heard the name.  When I first moved here 5 years ago, Mike worked at Creekside in Winston Salem (or maybe Countryside in Kernersville - now Cinema) but left soon after.  I haven't heard the name since, so I'm not sure if he's working at a shop locally or not.  There's a handful of other local guys here, so maybe someone else will know more.

I checked the internet for lanes in the surrounding cities, but unfortunately the few that do have websites are either corporate AMF / Brunswick that have no local info other than address and phone #, or they have a basic page at best that doesn't list much about the pro shop.  Meybe Ron will see and chime in.
The Gathering 2014 is near.  July 25-27 in Winston Salem, NC @ Creekside lanes.

Mike got out of the pro shop business a couple of years ago. He was last at AMF Major League in Winston-Salem. There are several good drillers in the area including the guys running the shop there now, Perfect Strike.

thanks for the replys everyone, , I was hoping that mike was still in business as no ball has come close to feel/fit as the pyro he did for me.

magic carpet- i came to the states in 05 on a holiday(I live in australia), if I'm ever in your neck of the woods again I'll be in contact
