North Texas
« on: June 06, 2008, 11:33:50 PM »
I was just trying to find out if there are any bowlers from North Texas on this site.  I bowl in watauga on friday nights for the summer.  Also are there any weekly or monthly sweepers in the area?

Hey, so I went to see Kurt a couple of weeks ago, and I must say he was excellent with very competitive pricing on most of his equipment.

I ended up getting a Storm Street Rod and it has been working great. I only had one problem with the ball at first. I rolled 2 games and noticed that it was pulling on the top of my thumb. Thus, I took it right back to Kurt and he new exactly what was wrong. He put it back under the sander and gave a more teardrop shape to the thumb hole. Since then, I have had no problems with the thumb.

It is so nice to be able to roll more than 3 games and not have your hand fatigued. I am still getting a little used to the finger tip position though, compared to the conventional grip.

Thank you for all the suggestions and input!

Kurt is good.  

Were you there this Saturday around 1:30 or so?  I was in there and someone had an issue with the ball and he had to open the thumb a little and give it the teardrop.

Nope, I wasn't in there this Saturday. It was about 2 weeks or so ago on a Tuesday. Which happened to be the day I picked up the drilled ball, and that is when I noticed the thumb hole problem after rolling 2 games there at Allen Bowl.

Did you end up getting this fixed???  Kurt is good about that, so just checking.
