  • Mar 09 Volume 1, Issue 9 Handicap Tournaments October-May Please
    Mar 09 In this month’s edition of the Josh Hyde Bowling Newsletter, we will be talking about the Etonic Marathon Open and a pro-am benefit tournament. We will also be talking with Tony Reyes, so enjoy this month’s edition. For the first time in 50 years, the Lumber Liquidators PBA Tournament had a tournament where it was all qualifying and no match play. This created a very interesting twist to the tournament. The players weren’t accustomed to not having match play. Another interesting twist Crazy Pinz Pro Shop was that the PBA tour used other oil patterns that they had been using all 6770 E. State Blvd year. As a player, you could not have just one or two plans of attack; you Ft. Wayne, Indiana had to have multiple plans. The reason is because they had a different pattern every round that they bowled. This was a tournament where the cream of the crop definitely came out on top. (260) 749-9610 There were several players that did well in the first round, but they Mon-Fri 4pm-9pm did not make it to the top 18 game cut. After the first day, the cut was at Saturday 9am-1pm +74, but it only went up 47 pins at the end of round 2; scores tumbled down. Eight out of the top ten in the PBA point rankings made the cut. It was also interesting predicting a number for the TV show. Although when you have round robin match play, you have a number for the TV show but nobody talks about it that way.
