Well, for the 2nd time in 3 years, a last minute change in equipment is necessary for the Open.  Was all excited about getting my Big Blue Pearl out for the tournament, only to find a huge crack in it.....2 days before I leave.  With my Pyro having reaction problems off the breakpoint for some reason, and a cracked BBP, my options are an El Nino Gold, Wicked (which replaced my Inferno 2 years ago in Reno when it got damaged the day before I left), or a Messenger Low RG.  If I don't feel happy with either of those, I may just take a Super Carbide Bomb, and sand the hell out of it, and try to break down the team shot with it.....or God forbid, take one less ball!!! lol.  Murphy's Law strikes again, but still looking forward to a great time, and hopefully great scores.
