TOURNEY TRAIL: The P.B.A. kicked off its season Sunday, Dec. 4th. It is now known as the World Series of Bowling. Both men and women compete in their own divisions. They will be traveling throughout the World competing with each other. It is the answer I think to keep Professional Bowling as a sport for men and women who are devoted to keep it alive. On Sunday in the Men's division Jason "Belmo" (as he is called by his peers" Belmonte vs. Sean Rash, Rash defeated Belmo 214 to 204, then moved on to bowl the bowler of the Year, Mike Koivuniemi. He tasted defeat by Mika 224 to 237, thus Mike becoming the 1st champ in this new format. For the women it was the same format with match one watching two ladies from Sweden, Sandra Andersson defeating Nina Flack 190 to 160, then taking on the ageless and legend Carolyn Dorin Ballard from the U.S.A. with Ballard defeating Andersson easily 162 to 207 for the inaugural event for the women. Next Sunday's show will also be televised on ESPN at 11 a.m. Mountain Standard Time.
The U.S.B.C. entry blanks have arrived for the 2012 State Tournament for the men, women, and youth. They may be picked up at the lanes.
TIP OF THE WEEK: In the next couple of weeks we will be discussing different grips. The most popular grip used by Professionals is the Standard fingertip. The arch of both fingers is at approximately 45 degrees. When using this grip both fingers are inserted into the first crease and the webbing of the thumb is contoured to the shape of the ball. This is a easy grip to control for making adjustments and changes to ball roll and offers less wear and tear on the hand.
