Good to see you still out there putting on quality events.

Unfortunately, I'll pass on this one. Wedding anniversary is the same weekend.

Keep me posted on how this and other events go.

All the best,

Post by: walt8398 on July 29, 2012, 07:14:04 PM: *******Due to the host center for BWSSC getting a new lane machine and having difficulty getting replacement parts for the old one, there will be a pattern change. The new BWSSC pattern will be the WTBA Montreal pattern (41'). This pattern was chosen because it plays the closest to the EBT San Marino Open pattern (original pattern). Also, there is a change to rule #1. PBA members who finished in the top 32 for the '11-'12 PBA season are ineligible.*******

Post by: budda on August 20, 2012, 12:22:45 PM: What was it....average 230 to make match play. I dont think the pattern played the way they wanted to. But it was a great tournament. Tony and his crew did a great job this year. I will be back next year, and I am sure Tony is going to find a real nice shot to put down.

Post by: walt8398 on August 21, 2012, 07:10:09 AM: Yeah, this WTBA Montreal pattern did not give me my desired scoring pace.

I will go on record right now and GUARANTEE you that next year's pattern will be tougher. Not looking for-100 to make match-play tough but the goal is to get it +100. It was what it was this year. We still had great competition and a good prize fund.

See everyone next year.
