I just got back from visiting michelle at the pro-am of the U.S. Open (where she got assigned to the pair in between a couple characters named Leanne Barrette and Carolyn Dorin-Ballard--whoever they are) and I would like to wish her luck this week.  Her squad will have the evening shift on Wednesday, and I hope to be able to get there that night to watch.

It was nice to meet ya 'shiv  I guess you must have left after game 2- I actually fared dececntly in the last game of that shift...and hopefully someone off that last pair cashed since they had Cathy shooting 300, Carolyn 260 and my 273 (7 count on the fill ball led to the odd 27x score).

I just got back from the practice sessions...I went early to watch A squad and stuck around for all of C squad.  I know the pattern won't break down the same way, but it gives some semblance of how toasty they might get.

The pattern we have is fractionally off from being sport-compliant, with the 20:2L and R sides being 2.25.  Pattern is run approximately 24 feet forward and buffed to 41, with no reverse application.  If I understand the numbers correctly, there are 55 units on each board where it was applied.  I had looks both inside and outside, and there seemed to be people faring well on both the left and right.  As with most patterns, matching speed, revs and surface was critical.  Carry seems to be good, and as such, I expect that the cut to top64 will be in the range of +50 to +80.

Stay tuned

Michelle,
I am anxiously awaiting your reports.
However - I heard something interesting - LONG PANTS????
Is this because it isn't strictly a PWBA event???

BTW - tear em up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mumzie, slacks are now permissible in all events.  Confirmed direct from Cathy during practice yesterday.  

I'll try and post an update this evening...

Shiv,
Maybe I'll see you there tonight ? Me and Joey Bag O Donuts may be coming out there.  I was there yesterday morning and spoke with Michelle breifly.

Tish Johnson had pants on Tuesday.......whatever that means

Jeff--

I'm hoping to pick up an Inferno after work today, if the pro shop can get one with the specs I want today.  After that, I'm heading over to Sunnybrook to watch a little of the pro bowling action.  I'll be wearing a DownBeat Magazine baseball cap.
