Both players will be among the field of 141 bowlers competing in the 2016 Pasco County Florida Open. “We’ve bowled against each other many times during our careers,” said Bohn, recalling the title match against Duke. “Even though I knew I had things pretty well under control heading into the end of the match, you can never let up against guys like Norm because if there’s room for him to catch you he will.” Other PBA legends, who compete full-time on both the PBA Tour and PBA50 Tour, will also compete in New Port Richey.
