Mike Wolfe and a 13lb ball?
« on: November 11, 2007, 12:59:08 PM »
Did anyone here Mike Wolfe say his ball was 13lbs?  At the end of the tourney when he was waiting for his ball(waiting to make his final shot in the 10th frame) he tells one of the officals that "he needs his ball".  Then you don't hear what the guy tells him but it's obvious he says something to Wolfe.  Wolfe responds by saying his ball is 13lbs.

I thought that was strange but does this guy use a 13lb strike ball?

Congrats on the big win Mike!  With the way Walter has started the season off, it makes your win even that more impressive, keep it up all season long!!

Hey Mike congrats on the win, your throwing incredible! I'm curious on the layouts you used, the pins on the Widow and Raid looked really weak, what's your axis?

thanks everybody
joe jr - my axis is 4 3/8 x 9/16 up, the blk widow was a 80 degree mass with a 5 1/2 inch pin to axis, the raid was the same, but a 55 degree mass, i think Rick Benoit has pics on his website, www.brunswickinsiders.com

Mike:  Congrats also, that was fun to watch.  Wow, was WRW way right or what?  I think I've seen Brian Voss further right than that, throwing over the channel, but not in a long time.  Walter was like the exact mirror image of PDW, LOL.  I saw you shake hands w/Barnes, he sure didn't look happy.
