Hey everybody! I know... where the heck has he been?! Well I'm sorry. Time does not usually treat me very well and it takes time to manage a website, including blogging it.

First things first... we are heading toward a new Fall season and already some leagues are filling up rapidly. If you are interested in joining one or returning to a previous league you were in, now is the time to contact us here at the center.

You can check the sign-up sheet posted at the website for a listing of leagues, including the new Men's trio league on Monday at 7 PM and the popular Youth/Adult league Sunday evening.

Now for my soap-box comments:
I am starting to suffer from "information overload" by all the bowling ball manufacturers. I feel that they are publishing information that is misleading although it is basically accurate. Drilling a ball a certain way does not guarantee that it will do as stated on the information sheet. If you are a robot or "bowlbot", you can roll the ball the same way every time, but face it; you are a human and subject to vary your release most of the time.

Always remember: the biggest factors are your release and the surface of the ball. Today's high-tech equipment is high maintenance. It needs to be cleaned on a regular basis to remove the absorbed oil and dirt and the surface maintained in a consistent state, whether polished or dull.

Finally, NEVER leave a ball in the trunk of your car or subject it to high temperature swings! A ball likes the same temperature as YOU do!
