Usually 5 to 6 to a pair. I try to keep a nice flow. I hoping this turns into a great tournament. I keep on hearing how many people are saying they are attending, even if half show up, I will have a bout 35-40 entries, plus people that came in and paid.

To give an update on the pattern, it will be an old style 35ft pattern, relatively flat at 50ml. I wanted the pattern to produce good scores, but not a have a complete blow up of scores. Good luck to all that attend. currently have 20 plus entries and about 20 emails about people that are attending.

Rick,

Sorry for the late notice, but thinking of heading up tomorrow, are there still spots available? Also, what's the ratio of the pattern you are putting out? Don't want to make the drive up there if it's going to take +300 just to cash. Thanks.

So everyone that bowled what did you guys think of the tournament? I think there was to many people on a pair 7. The pattern was tough not many strikes so it took like 8 hours to bowl 10 games. started at 10am finished at PM. Only 8 out of 80 bowlers were over. Rick you should give Kevin Ward a bowling ball for getting all the scores he was a savior. Just my opinion.
