This brings up something I have observed for years in bowling that does not seem present in other sports.  It always amazes me how upset top tier bowlers ( even tour guys ) get over the inflated scoring at local levels.  I have yet to understand how a top tier bowler can take it as a personal affront that local league bowlers average 220+ on house shots.  Of course it is easier.  So what.  It still take skill to average that high on anything, even if those guys don't have the versatility to score on a 47 foot sport pattern.  I watch a bunch of high golfers break 60 in a tournament on a 6000 yard muni, and I don't see Tiger Woods blasting them for scoring good on easy courses.
