Tour Trials......
« on: March 25, 2004, 08:58:59 PM »
The tour trials are going to be tough. They have to bowl five days
straight bowling on one condition a day. It's going to be an emotional
week for these guys.

I'm relatively certain that pba.com will post the results of each day's proceedings.  Heck, they might even treat it like a tournament, with live scoring updates.

I haven't heard yet whether or not it will be shown on StrikePass.  Anyone know for sure?

What type of lane surface is at Stardust?

Anvilane? Guardian? ... or *gulp* wood?



Wood, and it will be fresh cut wood at that. What I have heard is that the lanes will be refinished 2 weeks before the tour trials, 1 week before the big regional.
