Cool. Yes, I was looking at the score sheet for 2007 & Tony LaCaze was right up there. 2nd place I think & some other high score payout.

From what I understand, Tony has won this tourney a couple times. He goes to every squad during the entire tourney. So if your going to get into brackets then he's the guy your going to be up against eventually. He get's into all the brackets! Everyone of them! This guy probably makes about 600 every squad, every week! He's very good and this is a no tap so you basically need to shoot close to 300 to have a chance to beat him.

If your into playing brackets he's the guy! This year he brought a buddy of his and he's a very good bowler as well. There both really high rev bowlers and are very accurate! So bring your A-game if anyone plans on shooting the elgin no tap!

You gave him a run for his money.
Keep the ball away from your ankle?
ONe frame cost you a few hundred?

Rich I had him that game. Had a 20 pin lead and was matching him strike for strike. There were only 4 frames left and smacking my ankle with the ball causing a gutter while working on a double killed me. I lost by 9 pins! I won't do that again! I will also make sure I keep up with the adjustments!

All signed up for this saturday both shifts who else is going to be there?
Monster Pike will be there w/my league team. Ever since the last 300 bowled at these lanes, I've never seen it more oiled than it's been the last 4 or 5 weeks or so, even into the 3rd game.

I bowled last week and thought was shot was ok. I played a tight inside line I didn't want to get the ball outside 10 at anytime. It was tough but reasonable I thought.
Last night after spraying it all over the place the 1st 2 games, I was able to find a real nice inside line also. Shot a 256 w/a couple brooklyns, but in the 11th frame I buried a dead flush pocket hit & left a 9 pin.

I had good luck with my sidewinder and fury, I changed to my vapor but had to much backend. Stay away from 10 smoother reacting balls are the way to go I feel. No practice was different but thats what makes it interesting. I would like to meet everyone where could we all meet?
Rob
I think I was two pair over from you. Your Sidewinder prompted me to switch to my Mystic.
