USBC Queens & Womens Tournament – Reno, NV

James B. — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 20:40:38 +0000

I finally got into Reno this morning and got settled in. I am now over at the National Bowling Stadium poking around in the infrastructure here. I must say that I am more impressed with this facility than the Cashman Center in Las Vegas. It is just beautiful.

USBC Open Tournament – Las Vegas

This was definitely a sight to see. It is insane the amount of bowlers that are here. I got to take a look around the curtain to see the infrastructure that runs it and I have to say that they run a pretty tight little ship. Needless to say, I will definitely be redesigning and consolidating alot of that into a BladeCenter and VMware. Now off to Reno!

League: Week 1

James B. — Fri, 23 May 2008 13:04:48 +0000

I bowled pretty crappy last night but our team still won 3-1. I think I averaged a 163, bowling a 179 my first game, 145 my second and a 159 my third. I still beat my opponent in all 3 and my team beat the other by a couple hundred pins. First night, not a bad start but will get better…anyway, looking forward to bowling better next week.

League

League starts tonight in Denton at Brunswick. I will be bowling with Stephanie, Shawn and Sam. We still have not come up with a name yet but I guess we will come up with the name tonight at the league meeting. Anyway, bowled last night also and bowled a 206, 198, 186 and a 143. I hope this season is a good one. I will post up my scores for tonight when I get home.

Good Game!

So I went to bowl tonight and bowl my high game! I bowled a 170, 170, 141, 183, 247 and a 159. Brought me to a 178 average for the night. My high game had 1 open, no splits, 2 spares and 8 strikes. Needless to say, I bowled a pretty good night tonight. On to the league!

New Ball Time?

So last night I was at Brunswick Zone in Denton and I ended up bowling a high game of 223. It seems though that everytime I go bowl now my ball gets stuck in the ball return mutliple times during the games. I am not sure what it is, or maybe the ball return gods don’t like me but I think I am due for another ball. Ok, ok, so I am using this as an excuse to get another ball, so what? I am an adult…right? lol, anyway, I just thought that maybe I would share that with everyone. Talk at you guys later…

I have started on another project. It is called BowlStat. Basically, I started this project because I wanted a nice way of maintaining my bowling average, scores, locations and some other details. Once it is ready to be released I will post it up here. Hopefully, we will see a release here in the next few weeks.
