And they probably don’t even realize it. The West Coast Senior Tour, a club of top senior bowlers primarily from California and Nevada, is returning to the Southland this weekend for a string of four tournaments. League bowlers are eligible for WCST events, provided they’re at least 60 years old. But they rarely take advantage of the opportunity. No doubt, it can be costly – the entry fee can run almost $200. But it’s possible the tournament can be one of those take-your-breath-away events that can be treasured for a long time. I know firsthand about the thrill of bowling with – and against – players who put together six strikes as easily as tying one’s shoes. About two-and-a-half years ago, I competed in a WCST event in Mission Hills and I couldn’t have been more excited. I felt as if I was joining the Dodgers and sharing the diamond with players like third baseman Ron Cey, shortstop Bill Russell, second baseman Davey Lopes and first baseman Steve Garvey (I must have been playing short-center, like on a softball team.) And there I was – at Mission Hills Bowl – sporting my lofty 152 average. Not too far away from me was United States Bowling Congress Hall of Famer Robin Romeo, who was shooting rockets down the lanes with impeccable form. I was part of a three-man group that bowled over two lanes. Our team included even- tual champion John Sowell, a left-hander who when he’s in a groove is as good as any pro bowler alive. And this was a day when Sowell was at his best. The left-hander from Vista, Calif., not only hooked virtually every shot into the pocket, but he took time to converse with me, provide pointers and encourage me. All the while, he’s playing for a $725 first-place prize – which he won in a thrilling duel in the finals with favorite Kevin Gannon. When Sowell won, I was probably more excited than he was because I had bowled alongside a top bowler who happened to be the same age and eventually became a good friend. Oh, then there’s the bowling. How often do you bowl eight games at one shot? Can you make it through? This tournament – whose rules at that time permitted bowlers 50 and up – started in the morning with an eight-game set for qualifying. The top four bowlers advanced to the finals. I had never bowled eight games in a day, but I huffed-and-puffed my way through the qualifying round and even bowled a 199 in my sixth game. For the record, I also chipped in with a sorry 108 in my third game and finished the qualifying session with a 149 average. By contrast, Rod Tramp of Porterville posted the highest qualifying score, averaging a nifty 240.5. Sowell was second at 235. Incidentally, WCST etiquette rules are quite different during tournament play, com- pared to leagues. I had more than one not-so-friendly look sent my way as I apparently didn’t show the right amount of courtesy to two lanes of bowlers on my left and two lanes of bowlers on my right. But I survived. And when the final statistics came out for qualifying, I actually made the standings. I was listed deep in the bottom of the heap. Still, it was fun. It’s something that 60-and-older league bowlers should consider doing the next time a WCST event is in the neighborhood. And there just happens to be a handful of WCST tournaments planned for the South- land just around the corner. The West Coast Senior Tour competed in Las Vegas on March 5 and will return to California with an event March 12 at Canyon Lanes in Cabazon. Afterwards, the WCST’s next three events will be at Linbrook Bowl in Anaheim on April 16; at Del Rosa Lanes in San Bernardino on May 21; & Winnetka Bowl on June 11. If you’re the right age and want to challenge some pretty tough bowlers, give it a shot. For information, give Dick Sanders, the tour’s owner and director, a call at 760-363- 6064. FREE!

Carter scored a 239-190 victory over fourth-seeded Rene Fleming of Oklahoma City in the opening game of the stepladder finals. Then Carter outscored third-seeded Sharon Powers of Lakewood, Colo., 249-223, in Game 2. Carter eased to a 227-182 victory over second-seeded Jeanne Naccarato in Game 3, setting the stage for her match with Johnson, the only lefty in the stepladder finals. Johnson also was the top seed in the previous three Golden Ladies tournaments, but she had come out victorious only in 2013. She lost to Powers in 2014 and Paula Vidad last year. Carter took control against Johnson from the outset. After posting spares in her first two frames, Johnson fell behind by 32 pins and never got an opening to recover. Still, Johnson showed she wasn’t going down without a fight. She logged a triple (three strikes in a row) beginning BOOK SWEEPERS-GROUP RESERVATIONS the third frame and she rolled a five-bagger beginning the BIRTHDAYS-CORPORATE PARTIES seventh frame. 1.888.590.2695 Johnson’s stellar effort mattered little as Carter never let up, finishing with a blazing 253.8 average in her four BowlLaughlin.com/RiversideResort.com stepladder games.

Then he put the names on a spreadsheet and made his calculations. Mohr said that PBA50 players often look at the rosters of entrants and make decisions on whether they want to take part based on their chances of winning money. “Guys will look at the roster and see 15 guys they’ll know will make the top 32 and the other 100 [players] will bowl for the other 17 [money] spots.” Forkel was none too accepting of Mohr’s explanations. “I still think it’s BS and all those people he talks about who may not enter because of the star players are the same ones who WILL bowl at the Senior U.S. Open and the Masters. So sorry, I think it’s a lame excuse and a poor decision.” Reaction from bowlers about the eligibility controversy has been mixed. Many players stated their opinions but asked that their names not be used. Robert Edwards, a longtime bowler and bowling center manager, posted his views on Facebook. Wrote Edwards: “I have known Eric since before his fledgling days on the tour. He worked hard every day and had setback after setback. He came back every time and worked harder than before to improve his game. Eric deserves better than this, but the tournament director chose the rules and everyone has to abide by them. It just stinks that when you get this good, rules are set up so you can’t compete. What is the winner really winning if all of the best can’t enter the tournament?” Mohr said there was “no chance” that the 2016 Shoot- out tournament rules would change this time around. “As we put the rules together, I think this is a reasonable com- promise between a full-fledged PBA event and a high-roll- er-type true amateur megabucks event,” said Mohr, who would like to make this tournament an annual “can’t-miss” Las Vegas event. Mohr, who recently turned 60, said that it made no difference that Forkel was a left-hander. Oftentimes, lefties have proved more successful than their right-handed coun- terparts in tournament play. “I’m not concerned about the number of left-handers,” Mohr said. “If we get 100 left- handers to turn out, I’ll be happy.” Mohr also addressed Forkel’s complaint that players could miss out on a memorable lifetime achievement by not having the opportunity to defeat a Walter Ray or a We- ber. Mohr said that was a “valid argument.” But he added that his concerns are “entries in the tournament” and that he didn’t think anyone would enter the event “because they think they’re going to beat Walter Ray.” On the other hand, Mohr said, players might be hesi- tant about entering the event if multiple PBA Hall of Fame members were competing. The Senior Shootout tournament is scheduled for Nov. 13-18 at the South Point Bowling Plaza. Overall, Mohr Page 6 BOWLING NEWS March 10, 2016 TRANSCEND THE ZONE.

Pack your bags! You’re going to Shawnee, OK, next week!! Godbout reflected on his reaction from getting that call, “All I remember was crying and shaking and thanking him over and over again! I couldn’t believe someone like me could ever achieve something this big after my whole life teachers and other people said I would never amount to anything!!” Godbout’s whirl- wind adventure was about to begin as he and his wife, Annie, were about to embark on a journey that many can only dream about ever happening to them. In less than a week they had to adjust their schedule, Ed had to be fitted for a tux, and they were whisked away to be VIP’s at the annual PBA Hall of Fame banquet. Flashback to the beginning of Ed Godbout’s bowling career and involvement with the sport of bowling that brought him to the forefront to be considered for this honor. Ed was born in Sunnyvale, CA, 47 years ago. He started bowling at the age of 16 at Mel’s Bowl in Redwood City. He was born into a bowling family as both his parents bowled in leagues his entire upbringing. Ed, himself, bowled from age 16 on but took off about 10 years to raise his family and returned to the sport in 2006. A truck driver for the last 18 years, he bowls 3 leagues every winter and 2 in the summer carrying close to a 200 average, and is a PBA member. He’s had four 300’s and one 299 with a career high series of 766. Interestingly, his first two 300’s were within 24 hours of each other and on two different seasons at the National Bowling Stadium! To help round out his bowling experience, he worked at Boardwalk Bowl in Santa Ed and his wife, Annie, with Kelly Kulick Cruz for five years putting in time for the positions of working the front desk, mechanic and coach. Godbout had admiration for the late Tony Reyes, Mike Machuga, Amleto Monacelli and many others but his attraction to Reyes brought him to bowl at Tony’s center, 4th Street Bowl in San Jose in the winter of 2011. When he learned that Tony owned the pro shop at 4th Street, he made it a point to meet him and see if he could “get him to talk to my juniors at Boardwalk Bowl.” Godbout said, “I was scared at first, but found out he was a very cool dude.” Although Godbout was only able to get to know Reyes for a short time prior to his death, Ed said Tony left him with this bit of advice: “Always remember where you came from and it’s all about the kids, not the fame.” Then together, the two formed the 4th Street Bowl junior bowling program. Flash forward to the present and the PBA Hall of Fame banquet in Shawnee, OK, Godbout was experiencing also a first-time to visit OK. He shared that he liked OK, “everyone there was very nice and I will go back. I grew up in Colorado so I felt like I was back home again.” The Godbout’s were only there for one full day so Mon., Feb. 1, they started that morning by going to the bowl to watch the TOC practice and met up with a good friend, Cecil Scarboro, who was nice enough to take both Ed and Annie all around to meet everyone on tour and to go check out the tour trailers and all the behind-the-scenes areas. That night was the banquet. VIP Ed was seated at a table right next to Denny Schreiner and Pete Couture. And what a night! Ed was in awe, “just how great everyone was…. my wife and I were standing around and Kelly Kulick came up to us and said, ‘You look bored, let’s talk!’ (We met her earlier that day). Then after the Banquet was over, getting pictures with everyone and having Walter Ray Jr. come up to me and congratulate me was probably the best thing along with dinner Sunday seeing Sean Rash and Chuck Gardner and as we were walking out Chuck and Sean both telling me they were happy to see I got the Award.” Can you even imagine? I’m sure we will hear more and get further insight into this great night when we tune in to Phantom Radio the week starting Wed., Mar. 9, as Ed Godbout is the special guest. Log onto phantomradioshow.blogspot.com.-- And what a resume Ed Godbout is creating for himself. He is the founder of the Tony Reyes Memorial Jr./Adult Doubles Scholarship tournament that is held early every January and 2017 will mark the 4th annual where he hopes to break the 300WP mark for participants. He is also the founder of the Tony Reyes Memorial Scholarship for NorCal YBA which helps youth go to college as well as helps everyone understand what type of person the late Tony Reyes was. Be- cause of his intent determination to start both of these, Godbout was named the first recipient of the NorCal Tony Reyes Award--ForWestern the Love of thePacific Game Not the FameBowling in 2013. Supply, Inc. Godbout would like to thank Tom Clark, Janay Haggerty, Kirk Von Kruger and his nominator, Bette Addington. “I’m honored to receive this Award. I still can’t believe I won it now that I look back at everything I have done for the last four years puts everything in perspective and reminds me of something Tony always told me was to make sure you mind your p’s and q’s because you never know who is watching! This goes to show even a little guy like me that’s just trying to keep Tony’s name going so his daughter, Gianna, will know how much he meant to everyone was being watched, even by some of the best bowlers in the world and the PBA. I thank you for everything.” Ed being presented his award from PBA Commissioner Tom Clark When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true!
