Picked up our payout for my Thursday night league this week. We only managed to get about $400, we tied for 3rd in the final quarter and that was our highest finish. I guess we voted not to recognize team awards, so we didn't get any extra for Team

I'd like to extend a welcome to the site as well, 2f2fLOL. As CoachJim said, the BWP is a good ball, but is probably a bit more than you are used to though.

Jump to new posts Re: How should my fingers "feel" on my swing by CoachJim @ Today at 08:07 AM

The weight of the ball should be in your non bowling hand,(left hand for right handers), at the start lift the ball up slightly, then turn the weight of the ball from the left hand to the right hand and drop it into the swing.

I hear you about lifting these things in and out of your truck. I guess it beats carrying them on your shoulder every where you go like I've been doing during the last year. My problem is that I want to bring all my favorite balls with me every time

Here'e the basic techinque for drilling vacu-grips without using Vice's green inserts for the bottom for the hole. Use 1 1/32 bit instead of the usuall 31/32 bit. Drill down an inch. Change to 31/32 bit, and drill to 1 3/4 inches deep. Use an insert

I like my quad roller. It splits up in to two duals. And lifting those into the back of the cab of the truck is about as much lifting as I want to do on a frequent basis. Erin
