Title: Who wants to build a team???
Post by: mrbowlingnut on August 25, 2006, 05:31:54 AM

I would like to build a team or few BR teams to go bowl the event together, i have never bowled nationals and have trying for 3 years. Post here or pm me if you would like to build a team i only average 191 so it would be more for fun

Barry, I might be talked into doing it. Sounds like fun to me. Being able to meet and bowl with some br.com regulars would be very cool.. I book average 217-218 on a THS but not on the nationals shot. I am probably good for about 180 a game!! LOL..

Hey Barry, I'm contemplating it, if you think of some dates, I could get back to you. I'm starting a new position at work, so I don't know if I'll be able to get the vacation dates set in stone. Let me know regardless.

I think I would be up for that.  When are you planning on going?  I booked 201 last year.

Title: Re: Who wants to build a team???
Post by: mrbowlingnut on August 25, 2006, 01:59:17 PM

I will start checking date's that are still open???  I know some dates are gone it will be easier to book near the start then the final weeks, for me mid april - mid may are bad so maybe we can make this work and build at least 1-2 teams and just have a good time.

Barry,

You need to get in touch with Tenpinspro (Rick) and see what dates he has. There is about 8 teams of us going at the same time.

ok that would alot easier as long as the dates work otherwise i have to still build a different team.

Title: Re: Who wants to build a team???
Post by: T Brockette on August 25, 2006, 02:05:24 PM

I guess what I meant was to find out when we were going to be there, and see if your team could get those dates also.

I'm looked into Mother's Day weekend (5/12-13); likely on afternoon shifts since we booked so early. I'd like to meet any of you who might be there.

K-Dawg my wife is Dutch but I think I'll keep her at home.  Does the same jingle apply to Reno?  "What goes on in Reno stays in Reno"

Barry and the guys intersted in forming a team for Natl's,

ONLY advice I'll give you is if you get enough people invloved try and put like bowlers togther on one team.  Bowlers that can help each other out.  I know this may not be possible but if it is......I'd do that.

Yes.

LOL

Let me know ASAP so I can start to sandbag.  I'm probably not gonna shoot 2230 at Nationals so I'd rather not set the bar too terribly high.  Based on the way things are going, that might be the average I'd have to go in with.

In any event, I'd like to get the spreadsheet of the oiling pattern ASAP to get a couple of hundred games of practice.  This, combined with bowlers that work well together and "burn in" a scorable shot, will assist everyone there to put up some great scores.

Hey guys,

I might be able to get in some action as well, if anyone wants to hook up. I'm only 198 for average, but have plenty of time between now and then.

I've never been to the Nationals, but already have plans to be there in Reno between April 16-22 with some friends who are on teams already.

I was originally going to bring equipment and just see if they needed extra bodies to fill out any teams, but wouldn't mind having a set plan for a team.

Let me know! Thanks!
