don't be surprised if the contract he signed is more for incentives than salary. walter ray had a contract with morich last year where he could use any equipment during the week but would use morich equipment and wear a morich patch or shirt on the telecast. making the show paid *, finishing second paid **, and winning paid *********, etc.

Greg, it was an exclusive contract......not a television incentive contract

according to the Bowler's Journal "Cyber Report".......

Walter Ray Williams Jr., who recently set a new record for PBA career titles, has joined the ball staff of MoRich Enterprises, Grafton, Va.

It's the first time WRW has been on a ball staff since 2001. "I feel good about signing and being associated with a ball company like MoRich, " said Williams. "I know they have a lot of experience making a quality product because I've been fairly successful using their equipment."

That goes without saying: Williams appeared on six out of the Tour's last eight telecasts using MoRich products, including those in which he set and broke the PBA career titles recored (of Earl Anthony).

"Walter Ray was a joy to work with in signing the contract," said Mo Pinel, President of MoRich, "and we look forward to working with him in the future." Added Williams: "Hopefully, I will be with the company for a long time."
