Just got a phone call from Skipper. i'm going to be bowling state this weekend, too. I'll see ya there MrP. I'm bowling team Saturday at 11am and D/S Sunday at ??...lol. What kinda warning is that? lol. I'll try and do my best. Maybe I can be on the same pair as the perfect one so I can tell everyone how many trip 4's he carries...lol. Great... We have the 11:00 am team time to and bowl D & S at 9:00 am on Sunday. I would suspect that you have the same D & S times.....We're all staying at the Staybridge Suites....there suppose to be pretty nice....

I don't have the info yet on where we will be staying, but it will probably be a Holiday Inn Express where Skipper gets a nice discount. I do know we are staying near the D/S house

I do know we are staying near the D/S house I'm not sure what house we're closer to...haven't had a chance to pull it up on Map Quest.... but I will here in the next hour..... What time are you leaving today?.... I have to pick up my dry cleaning after work, then go home, pack, then leave.... I probably won't get on the road to head that way till 6:00 or 7:00 o'clock.... but our rooms are guaranteed, so no worries there.....

It would probably take 3 - 3 1/2 hours if I leave this evening due to traffic...lol It's a shorter drive than driving to San Antonio...lol

I'm going to take the beltway all the way around, but it still backs up on it around 59 and at I-10 during rush hour....

Threw the ball well all 9 games, but carry was terrible most of the time. Had 8 opens all weekend and spared every single pin...BONUS.
Team 203, 219, 198, 620 Singles 256, 278, 214, 748 (sitting around 9th or 10th) beat Ozio in the 3 brackets I had him in. Doubles 215, 191, 171, 583 (ran out of juice the last game...lol)
All-events 1951. Should get a pretty good check in singles. We'll see.

Uhhhhh.. youcould have at least let us know how mr. p bowled... like, "I beat the hell out of mr. p!", or "mr. p bowled okay, but I beat him.", or "mr. p is still complaining to tournament officials about the shot...."

That would be because he didn't...lol... Team I went, 207, 196, 246....649... Singles........200, 268, 267......735... Doubles......209, 226, 238.......673... for a 2057 AE Threw the wrong ball in team and threw the ball horrible the first two games and couldn't throw my Blade because I didn't clean the tape out before I bowled. The thumb was all gooie and I didn't have any alcohol wipes to clean it... I have no one to blame but myself on that one... In Singles, started off with my Horizon but it started over and under reacting, switch to my Blade, (cleaned all the thumb holes Saturday night) had a better line and carry except for the stone 8 pin in the ninth that cost me 20 pins....then proceeded to shoot 268 and 267... Joe Piez was my Doubles partner..(a lefty) he goes 768 in Singles... If they would have had doubles first like they use to.... we would have shot 1503 and would be in 2nd place and only 3 pins from 1st... For Doubles, stayed with the Blade for most of the first game, started hanging 10 pins.... oil started carrying down, switched ball several times, ended up staying with my Ricochet Rebound and only 1 board deeper with my feet... went 226 and 238 the last two games.... had another stone 8 pin that costed me another 20 pins.... lost 40 pins to two stone 8 pins on lane 20 and I wan't the only one that left stone 8's on that lane.... but that's the way it goes.... Dropped 25 dollars in brackets in Team on a 125.00 investment but came back Sunday, got in 20 brackets in Singles and in Doubles... won 8 brackets in Singles and 9 in Doubles.... got back 421.00 dollars Sunday on a 200.00 investment....I beat Ozio as well as many others in brackets, Ronnie Sonnier and Derrick Williams were bowling our squad as well.... but in their defense, they caught a bad draw on lanes....(Talked with Skipper A. afterwards).... Ozio only was +60 for 6 games on Sunday where I was +208 Sunday.... if he would have been on our pair, he would have shot a lot more...JMO... but luck of the draw for lane assignments is part of the game.....

On Ozio, Derek Williams, and Ronnie Sonniers right lane was screwed up bad. They had no room for error at all.

On another note, I asked David Ozio if I could throw his name in the hat to be our 2008 Hall of Fame guest speaker, and he said that's a little far in advance, but sure. All we would have to do is coordinate it through Skipper.

Good shooting in Singles Wine, my first game, kept me from shooting real big in Singles, much as your 3rd game did....but I felt we made a good showing for ourselves...
Missed my goal of 2100+ but threw the ball horrible two games in Team and not having my equipment ready is mostly to blame and I have no one to blame but myself for that..... but I was satisfied with my bowling Sunday, spared all my 10 pins Sunday and only missed 1 Saturday.....

Well, those are some low to average scores I guess... According to the Texas State BA website, LOW TO CASH in Division 1 All Events is 2,065
