I'd say 28 entries is pretty good these days!

But when you run the same thing week after week, with lower scores...there is no chance that number will improve or even stay steady.  He's done it too many times before.

Wall 'em up, get folks in the door!

The scores weren't that low this week. The high qualifier was well over +100 with several other people better than +50. The cut was -40 but remember that is half the field. I'd say those numbers are pretty good. If you bowled well then you scored well. what more can you ask?

Joe, if you have 14 of 28 people going -50 or worse for 3 games, how many of them are coming back week in and week out?  I'm not talking about fairness, I'm sure the conditions were fine.

Just saying that putting out the tougher patterns on a Friday night summer tournament is not the best way to attract entries.  Especially for $60.

If the pattern is applied correctly, it will be fun watching folks balls hydroplane as it gets outside of 8. In the words of Soulja Boy -- ZOOM!
