The session will be on bowling ball technology and how lane surface and oil affect what the bowling ball does. They will include information about ball surfaces, weights and other information that can aid in giving you a competitive advantage on the demanding lane conditions you will see in the future.

RICHARD AND LORINCZ CAPTURE CHESTERFIELD OPEN TITLES

The Michigan Junior Masters Association rolled into Salt River Lanes in New Baltimore, Michigan the weekend of February 20-21, 2010 with 81 bowlers looking to take home this years title and scholarship earnings. The past few years have seen the scoring average for this event go pretty high so we made some adjustments to the Silver Bullet oil machine to make the conditions play just a bit tougher and it worked. The 45 foot oil pattern really challenged the membership and only one bowler, Erik Stanley (Warren, MI), managed to average over 200 for the entire event.

FERRIS – HOPKINSON REPEAT AT JUNIOR DOUBLES

The Michigan Junior Masters Association moved into Candlelite Bowl in Bridgeport, Michigan on January 30-31st to have 47 doubles teams face off in the 22nd Annual Bob Klaczkiewicz Memorial Doubles tournament. Both the girl’s and guy’s field contained the event winners from last season but 45 other teams were looking to take that title away.

Tori Ferris (Kalamazoo, MI) and Carrie Hopkinson (Drumbo, Ont.) were the defenading champions for the ladies and they set the tone right away to make sure everyone knew it was not going to be easy to take the title away by being the high qualifiers on the ladies side shooting 3054 for the eight game qualifier. Ferris / Hopkinson continued their dominance as they also led the way going into the stepladders finals out averaging the rest of the match play teams by five (5) pins per game.
