That before I'm laid to rest, I might bowl a perfect score".

Bowling column for Nov 15, 2012

We have yet another tournament coming up this weekend.  A Couple’s No-Tap tourney is being held at Bulans Bowl on Saturday Nite at 7:30. The cost is $30 a couple. Just a reminder, at Fast Lanes, on Nov 21, there will be a 7-8-9 No Tap tourney, and you will be able to throw out one game. It is Singles, and there will be both men and ladies divisions. There will be a live band starting at 8:30.

     Hey, got a question to ask you. Are you a bowler who likes to clean your bowling ball down at the center during competition?  Did you know the cleaner’s odor is not only offensive to some, but harmful as well. Maybe we can be courteous to our fellow bowlers, and clean the ball away from the bowling area. That way, we can help someone breathe a bit easier.

        All right, I know you want this week’s results, so let’s get to them.  The Monday Nite Church No-Tappers had this report: Jimmy Scruggs not only had a 739 series, bt a 300 game as well. Terry Jone rolled a 279 game, on his way to a 699 series.  Other bowlers with games 50 or more pins over their averages included Scott Cunningham 244-187-57; Albert Syass 233-157-76; U Pete Williams 240-169-71; Karen Hoskins 231-179-52; Karen Lane 176-112-64 and Lynnse Gondzur 186-135-51.

     The Monday Nite League at Bulans had the following  split conversions this week:  Sandi Burke demonstrated the easy way of picking up the 4-10, Cindy Davenport, the 6-7-10, and Kevin Bennett smashed the 3-7-10.

       Can you believe I actually forgot the Tuesday Nite Go-Getters last week. Yep, so we have a double report this week. On Oct 30^th, Greg Miller rolled a 244, 78 pins over his 166 average. Joe Blagg shot a 218, 53 pins over his, and 141 average bowler Maggie Birge shot 50 pins over to garner a 191. Looking at split conversions, looks as if the 5-10 was rather easy for the Always Late team, as Bub, Charlie, and Dot Tiffin, Maggie Birge and Houston Key all converted it, as well as Sherry Castongue. Jon Castle had picked up the 3-10, 5-7,  as well as the 2-7-8. Birge also picked up the 4-9. Also picking up the 3-10 were Sue Strong, and Dot McDaniel, not once, but twice. Harl Miller lassoed the 5-8-10, while Greg Miller demonstrated how we should pick up the 5-6.

      In the TLC League at Bulans on Tuesday evenings, Jerry Sims shot a 278, with a 712 series, while Kristen Duke rolled 56 pins over her 154 average for a 210 game.

     Looked as if some of the Senior bowlers were warming up for last weekend’s tourney. Jim Thomas was 53 pins over average with a 213, John Ramsey threw a 236, 53 pins over, Phil Stultz, 57 pins over for a  199, Houston Key tapped out a 225, 67 pins over, while a newcomer this year to the league, Michelle Williams threw 67 pins over her game average for a 177 game. Speaking of the Senior Tourney, we should have the results soon, and we will let you know if any of our local group placed. Judy Gebhart did knock out the 4-5-7.

         Covington’s Early Friday evening league had some great results from 4 bowlers. Art Wagoner shot a 257, 60 pins over his 197 average, which helped to achieve a 646 series. Paul Priebe rolled 50 pins over his 137 average for a 187. Mike Dunavan, a 183 average bowler, rolled 52 pins over to garner a 235, and a 672 series, while Beth Barnes shot 51 pins over her 139 average for a 190 game.

      The Friday nite Mixed League once again had some great scores.  Jerrad Reed rolled an exciting 290 game, 11 strikes in a row, and also rolled a 255, for a 756 series. Rich McFarland had a 259 game, and Terrence Cloyd had a 256 game included in his 686 series. Scott Reinken had a 725 series including a 254 game, while Danny Lazzell rolled a 260 game. Nicole Brown and Brandi Welsch both had a 236 game. Brown had a 641 series.

DBA To Hold Off On Dues Increase Oct 11, 2012

We have an update on the Danville Bowling Association dues increase. After talking with Association President Darren Van Duyn, we have found out that the dues increase vote has been put on hold until another association meeting is held near the end of the bowling season. Keep your eyes and ears open for the date of that meeting, where once again, you will be given an opportunity to have your voice heard.

     There will be a Association meeting for board members only at 4:30, tonite, at Lincoln Lanes.

     Want to enter some local tournaments? Check out the local bowling centers. I believe there are double tourneys every other week at Lincoln, King of the Hill tourneys at some of the centers as well. Maybe one of the centers can put on a no tap tourney. Might be some fun.

   The Monday Nite No-Tappers are still knocking out the high scores.  Sharon Craft rolled a 262, 62 pins over her 200 average, which helped out her 640 series. Joe Davis had a 707 series including a 255 game, which happens to be 64 pins over his 164 average. Scott Cunningham rolled 79 pins over his 175 norm for  a 254. 146 average bowler John Nixon was able to top his average by 79 pins for a 208 game. Albert Syass rolled 61 pins above his current average of 159, to garner a 220. While Louise Cunningham was rolling 74 pins over her 104 average to bowl a 178 game, James Fair was topping his 104 average by 74 pins to get a 160 game.

   Had not realized the Tuesday Morning Ladies league had change to Monday mornings, so guess we should start calling them the Monday Morning Ladies league. One of their young ladies picked up the 5-10 split.

     The Tuesday Nite Go Getters are picking up some steam as the season progresses.  Lacee Bays rolled a 175, 66 pins over her current average of 109. This allowed her to obtain a 430 series which is 103 pins over her current series average. 150 average bowler Jon Castle rolled 55 pins over his average for a 205, while Houston Keys was 56 over his 155 normal to garner a total of 211.  Irv Summers picked up the 5-7-9 split.

    Senior League bowler Greg Miller was hot again this week, when he rolled a 242. However, Linda Engle topped out for a 495 series, 114 pins over her series average. Marla Troyer rolled a 197, 60 pins over her game average. Fred Fultz was 57 pins over his game average. Joe Blagg had the high series for the week with a 629, including games of 234, 215, and a 180. Charlie Graul picked up the 4-7-9 split.

     Need to practice up for league or even casual play? Check your local bowling centers to see when they offer open bowling.

Until next week, let’s have fun and knock ‘em down.

Senior Tourney to be held in Champaign this Year.

The Illinois state Senior Tournament is being held right in our backyard this year. Dates are Oct 27th and 28^th, Nov 3, and 4^th, and Nov 10^th and 11^th and will be held at Western Bowl in Champaign. You must be 50 years of age or older to be eligible to participate. Just found out the reservation date closed on September 25^th, but they may take walk ins. There will be several Danville seniors bowling on the 10^th and 11^th of November.

   No official word yet on what the final outcome is of the recent local associations vote. They are looking into whether the vote to raise the local dues from $7 to $10 required either a majority or a 2/3 vote of the members present.

     Have you ever tried the sport of bowling? If not, league participation is a great way to do it. It is easy to join and a lot of fun. No EXPERIENCE is required. Can you pick up a bowling ball? If so, you are eligible.

There are leagues for all ages.  They range from age 4 and up. I know for a fact there are folks over the age of 80 bowling, so don’t tell me you are too old. We do not want to hear that you are not good enough. Believe me when I tell you that even experienced or top rollers have their bad days. Take me for example. I am NOT a high roller by any means, but a couple of weeks ago, I rolled a 98 in the senior league and came right back in the Tuesday nite Go Getters in the next week with a 91. The Hall of Shame had my name on it. You learn with practice and advice from other bowlers. I have found that most bowlers are always willing to help out when asked. Drop by one of your local bowling centers and inquire on how you can join.

   The Monday Nite No-Tappers are still tapping. 138 average bowler John Nixon had top honors for the nite rolling 85 pins over average for a 223. Jimmy Scruggs was not far behind, bowling 69 pins over his 172 average for a 241. Rolling 68 pins over an average of 115, was Lynnse Gondzur with a 183. Pam Jones topped out with a 222, 63 pins over her 159 norm, and Mike Jett hit above 200, with 58 pins over his average for a 208. Finas Glenn picked up the 5-7 split.

    The Tuesday Morning Ladies League should start giving lessons on converting splits. They are a small league, but they don’t do too badly. Laura Baird picked up the2-7-8, while Barb Smith knocked out the 4-10.

    Senior League bowler Greg Miller was the top bowler of the week of those reporting, obtaining a 634 series with games of 210, 211, and a 213. John Ramsey had a 599 with games of 201 and 200. Jim Thomas rolled a 202.  In the split department, the Wiliams family converted a couple of good ones. Michelle clipped the 4-7-9, while Aaron showed how to pick up the 5-7. Jim Thomas knocked the elusive 2-4-9-10, and Charlie Graul lassoed the5-10.
