I thought Missy was exclusively with Ebonite when did she go to Columbia?

Whenever she wanted?

Ebonite, Track, Hammer, and Columbia are all under the same corporate umbrella and it seems they're willing to let their staffers mix it up pretty much at will...

FWIW, one of her last staff contracts was with 900 Global...

Unless it recently changed, if you were EBI tour staff, you could use any brand in qualifying on the show you had to use the company you are signed under.

Missy signed a contract for all 4 EBI brands, similar to Mika and now Scott Norton.

She also looked great in the glasses.  Apparently she is now wearing them to help with the glare under the lights from what was said earlier.

Then when 900Global decided to opt out of the PBA "bribery" contest, she had to choose a company that she could use for bowling in the PBA. She chose EBI.

No offense to EBI who make some great equipment btw, but I think Missy would have been a better fit with Storm/Roto Grip...then again I think any company's equipment would work for her the way she's been bowling. Right or wrong? Just my opinion.

I still can't believe Liz Johnson can be beaten by almost anyone, Man or Woman on this shot that was out!

She is good and the shot was in her wheelhouse!

PS do you believe this shot out for show was the same for the woman and men?
Really?

i think missy will benefit with the early rolling cores of columbia. with her game she could use all the help she can get. plus playing straighter even on the burn she could use the omen core and use a vow cover to get a little push

Heck, she barley survived Kelly Kullick. I think she was lucky to do that.

It was the most even pattern for both men and women that I've seen so far. The outside gave everyone some hook and the flat pattern gave everyone a penalty area.

It was nice to see a different pattern for a change compared to the usual animal patterns.  As charlest says, it was very even, everyone had some room to play with but you also had the penalty area.  Overall, it was a better first show than the past several years.
