Do not know who Tom is, but good luck.

RIP ThongPrincess
The shows do not get taped until labor day weekend. So labor day weekend is when you should watch out for people posting the results.
-
I know Tom Smallwood.
-
Congrats Smallwood.
-
I've also met him a few times a very nice guy, and really talented bowler.
-
I wonder if he made the showing using some of the new old stock he picked up locally last week.
-
Yeah Smallwood a local.. really good guy and he's arguably been the best bowler in the state the past couple years.. Mika included just made to much money working for gm to bowl full time..
-
I'm pretty sure he threw it but i'm not sure when through the course of today.. Me and Kevin were talkin about that 2 or 3 days ago.. He found a black messenger to send himm

Tom is a good friend of mine, everyone is very proud of him and he is very deserving of this.I don't know anyone that works harder on his game than he does. It was a very exciting match against duke last night I am glad I was there to see it.
-
so 4pin is scared of seeing the results early?

I'm not a real big fan of Tom's game but he's a good player and i'm happy to see more new comers make the show.

If you don't think I know tom smallwood, why don't you come to saginaw michigan and go to state lanes bowling center and ask anybody in there who tom smallwood is. This is were Tom was practicing to get ready for the tour. All I was doing was congratulating a local guy for a big accomplishment in bowling. I wasn't starting a band wagon.

Why post this??
At the time you spewed your waste on the thread, people made a comment about posting the results or about his equipment, made mention that they personally knew the person, or answered a question.....that is.....until your waste of time was posted.
People on the site do enjoy seeing new people do well. Jeff was different because he's was one who actually came on here and participated and answered questions, etc.....but apparently that's too much for someone of your caliber of talent.
So....is that jealousy that's lashing out??

Rocbowling, you stated they are running them over with the Natural (storm). But later in your post you mentioned reps that wondered why they were even there and included Schlemmer (Storm rep)in that sentance ? Did I miss something ?
--------------------
Good luck and good bowling to all...

There's not much for Schlemer to do if everybody is throwing the same ball and he doesn't need to make any recommendations on different equipment to throw.

Congratulations Tom.Another Michigan bowler doing well, keep up the hard work it is paying off.
Why is it that people belittle the accomplishments of others,does it make them fell better about
themselves? Tom works hard to be success at the sport he loves.He finally has some success then
gets ripped on. Tom is a great person, I wish we had more people like him in bowling.
Good luck the rest of the year.

I could not agree more Roco.The arena lanes are so old, the ball hooks at your feet. I have practiced
there on Fridays during the fall and summer before they oil,I end up using plastic.And when they oil it's
still free hook.You are also right about the mfgs.I'm hearing the same thing from the people
I know.Also many bowlers are not pleased about this.I'm sure Chris Schlemmer is bored,but with all the hard work he does he deserves some extra rest.Chris lives in the Detroit area now so this extra time he has at home will only make him more of a animal when the tour starts out on the road later on .

I dont think anyone is throwing urethane on the longer patterns like scorpion and shark.
-
why not urethans makes these patterns more playable.. especially in thunderbowl.
-
On the cheetah and viper they worked great but there is no dry boards to the right on any of the other patterns. The rest of the patterns generally start in the track or deeper and migrate in from there you just cant create the angles with urethane you need to carry. I heard the new shark has 80 units of oil 10 to the gutter, I don't care what it is it will not hook out there.

But you're not considering lanes surface and the surface of the bowling ball
