Ace Hardware show - SPOILERS
« on: December 03, 2006, 04:04:34 AM »
Anyone else enjoy the house/PBA shot comparison?  While there's a lot more that goes into making a pro shot hard, I think they really managed to boil it down to something that was easy for most people to understand.  For a three minute spot, I thought it was pretty well done.

Balls:

WRW: Morich Awesome Revs
TJ: Overtime, looked to be drilled label but couldn't see the MB

Malott: Power Machine
Shafer: Thunder Road Pearl ?  Looks very, very angular.

I'm not sure if a prize fund increase would really boost ratings.  It's about the appeal, presentation, and production as much as the prize fund.

Think about it, if they televised the Megabucks tournaments do you think ratings would be through the roof?  Not hardly.  I'm not really concerned with ratings as much as I am of the tour's survival.

I too believe that if the prize fund was much bigger, it would get better ratings. I mean, something worth a bunch of money, usually will get a lot of respect as well. Megabucks? I don't believe they offer million dollar prizes...
