Michigan Tuesday Night Sweeper!
« on: February 14, 2008, 01:17:50 PM »
Any of you guys in the oakland county area?

Late night sweeper, Airway Lanes in Waterford, 2 games to qualify, 16 advance to match play.

Edit: 3/5/2008: Rates have been raised from $15 to $20 bux! Small increase but it goes into the prize fund, 3rd and 4th will still receive DOUBLE their money back!

As of late the cut has been around 410-426, not to rough.

Come out to BOOOOOOWWWWWWWWL!!! I'll be there chucking the rock!

We need more BR BOWLERS!!!!!!! Scared money don't make money people!!!!!

Edit 3/13/2008: After the first week or rate increase there were 41 PEOPLE!!!The only thing that suffered was jackpots, less than 20 people got in that.FIRST PLACE PAID 350!!!!

For sure! Its super easy. Especially when your left handed. It really hasn't been that low, i think last week it was like 430. If you can average 180 you can shoot 450 and qualify.

I shot back to back 7's and i only average 176ish at century. *shrugs*

Just trying to see if any ball reviews peeps wanted to come out.

Yea that house turns a 180 bowler into a 200 + with ease lol.  I might come out next week since I have the whole week off.  All depends on how my poor fingers feel after this weekend.

League Friday, Tournament Saturday, Tournament Sunday, League Monday....

I might die from all this bowling

Hey man,

Just wanted to let you know, after shooting a 157 the first game of qualifying, I shot 277, won the high game pot, and made the cut.

Shot 254, 246, 229 in the first 3 match play games, then got smoked 289-something bad in the finals.

Good times...thanks for posting this!

Pretty profitable night for me

Good deal man! This coming from the guy that wasn't sure if he was gonna make it cuz you were bowling alot this weekend. I'll be out there again this tues.

That sux, but that is usually how it works there, my friend terrance made the finals last week, guy shot 260 against him i think, he shot 240, a couple of taps killed him.

I think what killed me was the fact that they had to reset our score machine, and we were already behind, so i felt like i needed to catch up. I knew, i was fast on a lot of shots, and missed alot of easy spares. I was annoyed by the whole situation. In hindsight, i coulda made the cut had i not had been stupid and got frustrated, that is the lowest it has been in the 2 weeks i have been there.

Thanks for the advice sir! I was lined up nice in practice, then i started rushing. I tend to leave the ten there if i get the ball to far outside and throw a stronger ball, i was throwing my rising and it kinda killed me. I normally just throw a tropical it gives me the most area for the carry-fest.

Yea I had a lot of fun, but I probably won't be back.  It takes too long and I have to work.  This week was an exception cuz of mid winter break, but normally it would be a HUGE pain.

I was up at Airway for $1.50 mug night last night too...I am there way too often lol.

LOL! I stopped in too! I didn't see you though. I met some friends up there and then got side swiped by a drunk driver on the way home, guy didn't stop and just  booked in the other direction.

So many bad memories of mug nights gone wrong, we went there like every wed for months straight and got TANKED! Gotta love it, 1l mugs 1.50 4 of those, 3 or 4 jager bombs, we would get destroyed! 10 deep, and a tab under 70 priceless... lol!

Out of the whole lot i don't really like any of them, except Flo-Jo he is cool, bowled on a league with him. Those other two, mehhhh... I'm glad i didn't bowl the other guy, Harold, in the final, he is entirely to loud and cocky.

Moment of the night "Come on punch out in the 10th, keep him honest. Had it of been me out there you never would have let up." I just kinda chuckled to myself shook my head and laughed, he is out here for a reason. and your standing up there in the cheering section for a reason. Best part i beat them at their own game, hard and straight, i like to hook the ball more.

SOOOOOOOOO MANY views and no new faces at the shootout! Come on PEOPLE! BR shootout squad is only 2 deep, we need more bowlers!hahaha!
