FISSER HIT 935 IN TAT 610 CLASSIC LEAGUE AT AMF CARTER FULLERTON—It was a surprise that I got an email from Mark Fisser. Mark said he finally joined a 20 trios teams league, TAT 610 Classic scratch league at AMF Carter Bowl with Daniel Vasquez and a hearing man, Bob Herman. It is for first time since Men’s Mercantile scratch league that shut down Brunswick Orange Bowl 4 years ago this first deaf for- mer (1986) ABC Star of Tomorrow has joined a league. In between that time Fisser just bowled in tournaments. Mark informed that last Nov. 25 he rolled 258-200-266-213 for 935 in that league’s short oil pattern and next week the league will have long oil (Shark) pattern. He had several 900s before this 935 and is averaging 220. Also that Vasquez had shot a 4 games series of 1006 earlier for the league’s season high series and had been struggled lately as his average is down to 208. Since his first ABTA title last June, Fisser had bowled in lot of scratch tournaments especially the ones that uses PBA oil patterns. He had bowled on Chameleon and Viper oil patterns and admit- ted that they are not easy at all. He plans to bowl on Friday 28th Scratch 10 Gamer at Brunswick Classic Lanes in Norco that will be using all the PBA 5 oil patterns, Shark, Viper, Scorpio, Chame- leon and Cheetah. It will be a challenge for him. As a former PBA member in early 1990’s, Mark is considering a return to PBA next summer. He knew he has to learn to bowl on PBA oil patterns before he does. I wish him the best and hope he will report his results back to me. Maybe he should try to enter the PBA Tour Dick Weber Classic at Fountain Bowl as an amateur before he joins.

You talk about being in the zone well I think Alex found it and would not let it go, he entered the tour- nament with a 78 average but he did not average under 120 the first 5 games. He led the field into match play with 1087, Lauren Langer right after him with 1021 Alex got not only high point for series he also shot high game for additional 5 pts. Match play had no change for Alex he held on to #1, Ashley Dunn jumped into the #2 spot with Ryan Pekins taken over 3rd seed. Ryan went to work in the roll off and rolled a nice 202 to Ashley’s 179, Ryan was then up to meet Alex who kept rolling and stopped Ryan with a 220 to his 181. Advance Division found Wesley Low determined to make a run for the titles this week and he did so with style. Wesley led the field with a +109 for 5 into match play, giving him the series points, he also shot the high game of 258 for the game points, runner up games came from David Phillips 247, Court- ney Schultz 246, Henry Chang Wo 245, Alex fisher 241, Donald German 237. Wesley held on to the #1 spot by winning 2 of 3 matches, Shaun Morad moved up to #2 winning 3/3, Donald Ger- man dropped to #3 Jordon Davis made a valiant run by winning all 3 but just missed. In the first match Donald rolled a 238 to def Shaun’s 213. It was now the champion match Donald up to meet Wesley, they fought and kept everyone on the edge of their seat to a 245 vs 245 tie. Wesley won the 9th & 10th frame roll off to win his first title in the Advance division. Open Div. found Jeremy having a field day going 305 over right behind him was Brandon Pekins +110, Deeronn Booker + 104, Charlie Hair +101, the cut was set at Mike Bronstein at +13. Jeremy walked away with high points for series and game 280, 279, 267, Mark Curtis 265, Jerome Jordan 258, Casey Lescano, Deeronn Booker, & Nick Alford all had a 257 game. Jeremy lost the line and only won 1 match but held on to the #1 spot, Deeronn Booker went 2/1 to take #2, Charlie Hair did the same to move to #3, just ahead of Brandon Pekins who also went 2/1, Joey Chuo came in 5th. In the first match Brandon lost to Charlie Hair 200 – 164, Charlie next was up to meet Deeronn and in a close match won with 257 to 250, Charlie was now up to meet Jeremy for the title and Jeremy found the line again rolling 268 to 224.
