First off, I didn't bowl in this tournament but I am a local to MD. And I am suprised at the statements in this thread. It saddens me that people who proclaim to be bowlers would complain about a shot because it was "too tough". Now granted I wasn't there, but not once did I see someone in this thread complaining that the lanes were too dry/burnt. That is the only time I can see someone complaining about a shot.
In no other sport do you see this type of comlaining over conditions. You don't see golfers asking to hit off the womans tee. Or rec basketball asking to lower the rim because one team is shorter. We have got to stop this...if you want to be a bowler than BOWL. I don't care if its a 50 foot shot. For you to ask for an easier condition is basically asking for help to score and if you need that then maybe the tourney scene isn't for you.
I for one like tougher shots. Why? Because it is then that the "bowlers" emerge. If you find that you aren't emerging then maybe you need to re evaluate your game, not the shot.
I say all this not get every fired up, just stating my opinion. And I am not directly pointing this at any user, that is why you see no quotes. But we gotta wake up and realize that a challenge isn't a bad thing. Latise, keep the shot tough...people will come just because.

P.S.-Thurs nights at CAP need to be banished...crappiest payouts in the region...I bet Crofton's payout would be higher than that...hmmmm.
