btw when the WSOB finals come on I hope Sean uses the Hell Raiser and Too Reckless he used in qualifying.
Till then you can probably catch replays on Xtraframe.

Rash will have to use Brunswick on tv. Basically their staff agreement is that DV8 bowlers can use Brunswick in qualifying, but have to use DV8 on tv. Same with Brunswick- they can use DV8 in qualifying, but must use Brunswick on tv.

from matches I watched on xtraframe the Hell Raiser was used on the Shark and the Too Reckless was used during the two matches with Tommy Jones in the All-In Showdown. According to Chuck Gardner's facebook post he did use Brunswick Nexus' alot, they just didn't mention any DV8 stuff. Whatever he used worked, making all the telecasts is a great accomplishment. However the finals could be alot different since they will be staged in an arena setting. Hopefully the results will be the same.

here's some further info on the series. . . From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The "P" in P★League has five meanings: "Pretty", "Power", "Passion", "Performance" and "Perfect".
History
During the 1970s, bowling was very popular among the Japanese. Japan had as many as 3,697 bowling establishments during the 1970s. By the late 1990s, the number has shrunken to only 600. In 2008, there were 1,100 bowling establishments; 25.1 million people bowled in Japan - about one in five Japanese.
In the early 1970s, the JPBA, along with the JBC and the Bowling Proprietors Association of Japan(BPAJ) produced a series of televised bowling tournaments called Ladies! Challenge Bowl (????·????????), in the attempt to further push the sport's appeal, as well as showcase the women who competed in the three-year old JPBA. Big names such as Ritsuko Nakayama and Kayoko Sudacompeted in these tournaments. In all, sixty-two women participated in these tournaments. The formula worked - as the show's concept is used in many other Japanese bowling promotions on television, leading up to the present day.
Nakayama, along with the JPBA and the JBC, created P★League in 2006 in an attempt to revive bowling's popularity on television once enjoyed in the 1970s. The women who compete in P★League are labeled "idol" type athletes, since most of the bowlers tend to be marketed as such, and appear to look like the idols one would find in, for example, Japanese pop music. Despite the idol image, the professionals and amateurs who compete in P★League are among the best women bowlers in the world. All of the competitors hold an average of 190 or better, and several have bowled 300-gamesand 700-series.
