Alright! so here it is... pulled it out tonight and the tournament will be at
BUENA LANES
Ventura, Ca
(805) 656 - 0666

no name for the tourney... we can just call it "The Replacement Tourney"

60 $ entry (cheaper than Fresno)

heres the format:

Saturday February 19th @ 10am

9 games qualifying (more than likely moving pairs)

(this will hopefully be on some sort of sport shot or PBA shot... please let me know about suggestions so i can talk to the directors... )

** Sanctioning is not finalized as of yet... since it is such short noice to put something together out of no where... we are hoping it will be because that would be nice... it more than likely will be i would say**

Sunday February 20 @ 10am

(Depending on entries)

cut to top 16 and do a PBA style elimination bracket
- Best of 3 game matches (2 out of 3 wins and moves on)

** if entries are lower we might have a round of eight instead... but i believe we can get enough for top 16 ... maybe 32 if we get a mad good turn out**

cut to round of 8 then 4 , 2 and a champion

based off of only 20 entries top 8 would get pay out i believe with first place as 200 $

i am sure there will be more than 20 and hopeing there will be at least double... everyone and anyone is invited to come... let me know or let buena lanes know if u want to bowl... it will be a fun little tournament since CSC is not happening this weekend and i know a lot of people had plans to go up and bowl CSC... so this will be a good tourney on some sort of shot and with a pretty decent prize fund for having 5 days to put this together hopefully...
come out and bowl!

They may not fill it, but at least its something those who had plans to bowl CSC can bowl and just have a good  time.  And plus, JBT is in San Diego, most of us are here in the Los Angeles area, Ventura is about 3/4th closer then San Diego and Fresno for most of us, so who knows, maybe well get lucky and have enough participation.  Its not really a true replacement, its just something us bowlers here in ventura are trying to do to be nice to those who were excited about there plans for Fresno which just got ruined.  If people choose to travel 3424095839045809358905809548 miles to San Diego, so be it, its not like were trying to compete with JBT.

"If practice makes perfect, and no one is perfect.....then why practice?

Silencer...You posted on another topic saying how bad junior bowling in California  is - then you say you might not go to a junior tournament closer than the Fresno one. Make up your mind, I mean don't tell me you want to find out the shot before bowling this too.  What is this fascination you SoCal bowlers have with the kind of shot they put out. You represent the best of the best and the best of the future of bowling, you should be able to bowl on 5 feet of oil.

First.....As I told you last night Mason, try to get a Gold qualifier if possible, and we will probably be there fa sho. Second, not sure if all us 90951/562 peeps will come out, looks to be that it will be a last minute decision. Third, to Jeff, San Diego is a bit closer for us and not 3424095839045809358905809548 miles away for us haha, so JBT is a possibility. And finally, fourth, to pen15, quit being bitter.....

Quit postin' the same thing loser....Haha.
Oh, how about a shot that requires you to go straighter? That way I can bowl like crap.

Yea pen15, stop being bitter, the reason why I might not bowl this tourny is because I am most likely planning to bowl JBT..and no one even said they cared about what the shot was on here, all Mason asked was for ideas to make the tournament more fun

And Then...........

Hello all,

If I may....   :-)

JBTSW has no problem with "the replacement event" or anyone from L.A. who decides to bowl that instead.  We know they're not trying to compete (although we'd love to continue working with other groups / events in teh area to avoid any overlaps)...

That said, we'd love to see folks come to Sunset Bowl in San Diego for Saturday's JBT SW event.  $200 is always our minimum first place scholarship (with 1:6 'cashing' the rest of the way), and those points awarded at each event help determine our big money year end awards.  

For much more info, please visit us at www.jbtsw.com.

Good luck to those of you who bowl "the replacement", and we hope to see everyone else Saturday!

Thanks,
Jeff, JBT SW
