Detroit is full of hacks.  You truly get what you pay for in that town.  Flint is worse- if in Flint, either drive west to Lansing (to Dave Spohn) or down to Detroit, if King of the Mill is still on the west-side.

good luck and good bowling.

I'm not sure where you're located, but Randy Warnken at Top Shelf Bowling & Trophy inside Imperial Lanes in Clinton Township is okay in my book

In downriver the only one I have found that has been worth any kind of real help is Matt Ivancik at Big Time Bowling Supply in Taylor Lanes.  I know Kurt Pilon is good though too. Hazel Park is just too far to drive for me.
