Based on our 'Target Range' of winning scores (1030 to 1060) that we shared last week, the winning score Saturday was a perfect 1034, which was shot in the first squad of the day. Many bowlers in the 5 pm squad had a chance to take the lead, however, each one had a game under 200 which left them a bit short. Mark Kight was the Winner of the Jackpot Consolation this week. His 4-Taps was enough to earn him $100.00 from the 9-Tap Jackpot , leaving the Pot to grow to $1,241.00 for next week at Sunset Station. The locals retook control of the top spots this week, after a Hawaiian & a Brit controlled the Top 2 places last week. Jermal Williams became the 3rd LV Tour Champion of 2016, taking home a healthy $1,075.00, along with some Bracket money & another $80.00 from the Scratch Pot. His strong 1034 series, shot in the first squad, held up all day and represented the only 1000+ score of the day. Jermal, a very courteous young man, recently moved to Las Vegas to attend college. He enjoys playing poker but his passion is bowling. Jermal got comfortable on the lanes immediately, throwing 4 solid games. Saving his best for last, Jermal shot a sweet 290 game to close out his series like a Champion. He's bowled in every LV Tour Tournament (including Thanksgiving weekend) and his 290 game was his best yet, topping his previous best game by a huge 49 pins. Jermal said THANKS to Corben (Tour Floor Director) for introducing him to the Tour. GREAT BOWLING Jermal. CONGRATS on Title #1. At the urging of his father, David Bass Jr joined the Tour Saturday, along with his partner Heather. He took 2nd place with a strong score of 980, in the final squad, for a well earned $480.00 in prize money. Trailing him by only 5 pins, with a nice 975, was Robert Buckles, another Suncoast bowler and also a coach with their Junior Bowling program. Robert took home $325.00, plus some extra from the Scratch Pot. Congratulations to our top 3 finishers and many thanks to our returning and new members who supported this week's Tour stop. THANKS also to Chris & Dion from DM Collection, who has put together a Dye Sublimation shirt catalog, including Specials for Tour bowlers roughly $20 per shirt less than the competition.

February 2016 - www.bowlingworld.com 5 SERVING THE BOWLING INDUSTRY SINCE 1967 Simonsen Makes History With Win At 2016 USBC Masters By Matt Cannizzaro INDIANAPOLIS - Nineteen-year-old Anthony Simonsen of Princeton, Texas, won the 2016 United States Bowling Congress Masters on Sunday to become the youngest player to win a major title on the Professional Bowlers Association Tour. Simonsen struck on eight of his first nine shots in the championship match at Woodland Bowl to secure a 245-207 victory against Dan MacLelland of Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. MacLelland was looking to become the first amateur since 2002 to win the USBC Masters. The victory earned Simonsen $50,000 and the coveted Masters trophy, while MacLelland took home $25,000 as the runner-up. Simonsen was the first top seed to win the event since 2013, when Australia's Jason Belmonte claimed the first of a record three consecutive Masters titles. Simonsen, at 19 years and 39 days old, surpasses USBC and PBA Hall of Famer Mike Aulby of nearby Carmel, Indiana, as the youngest major champion. Aulby was 19 years and 83 days old when he won the PBA National Championship in 1979 for the first of eight major titles. "It's definitely a dream come true," said Simonsen, who won his first title earlier this year when he teamed with Connor Pickford to win the Mark Roth/Marshall Holman Doubles Championship and just miss becoming the youngest player to win a PBA Tour title. "And, it's awesome to break a record. Mike Aulby was a great player. Missing the youngest to be a title-holder by two days was a little disappointing, but to come out and get the job done today, I guess I'll take that as evening itself out." The decision to pursue a career on the lanes was one Simonsen didn't take lightly, but he quickly was able to prove himself with two PBA regional victories on the way to PBA Southwest Region Rookie of the Year honors for the 2014 season. Equal success at the national level has been just as quick, but Simonsen still is focused and humble. "I made the decision at a young age to come on out, and it was about getting out here and getting experience, which really is starting to pay off," Simonsen said. "This is my first full year out on Tour, and I bowled a majority of the major events that were possible. To have success is awesome, but a title doesn't define you. You have to keep coming out and trying to perform week in and week out, and see where it takes you." For MacLelland, this week at the Masters was a vacation away from his full-time job as a bowling center general manager and a chance to catch up with all the people he no longer gets to see since leaving the PBA Tour. "It was great to be here and see everyone again, and I really love bowling in the Masters," MacLelland said. "This is one event I always try to bowl in, and it was a fun week. It's a little disappointing, but I'm not upset. Things just didn't go my way. Anthony bowled great all week." On the way to the championship match, MacLelland was able to hold off 2013 Masters runner-up Wes Malott of Pflugerville, Texas, for a 216-213 victory. Against Malott, MacLelland started his first TV appearance since 2014 with an open frame, but strikes in the next four frames gave him a nine-pin advantage halfway through the match. He had a chance to shut out Malott with a double and eight pins in the 10th frame, but he left a 2-7 split after striking on his first shot. Following his first miscue of the day in the ninth frame, a 2-8-10 split, Malott needed a double and four pins in his final frame to slip past MacLelland. He struck on his first shot, but a 6-10 combination on his next offering ended his run at the 2016 event. A No. 4 seed never has won the Masters. In his first two matches of the day, Malott struck on 20 of 24 attempts to defeat Tom Daugherty of Riverview, Florida, 258-189, and Chris Loschetter of Avon, Ohio, 258-201. Loschetter finished fourth and earned $10,000, while Daugherty, who finished third at last week's FireLake PBA Tournament of Champions, earned $8,000 for his fifth-place effort Sunday at the Masters. Belmonte was among the final eight bowlers from this year's 417-player field, but losses Saturday to Malott and Sweden's Martin Larsen ended Belmonte's bid for a fourth Masters crown. The 2016 Masters featured a total prize fund of $295,000. All competitors this week bowled 15 games of qualifying, before a cut was made to the top 63, who joined Belmonte in the double-elimination match-play bracket.

Later in the week, the film will make its broadcast debut as part of Friday Night Movie Night on ESPN’s SportsCenter on Friday, February 26 during the 6 p.m ET hour. The ESPN Films 30 for 30 Shorts documentary, directed by SideStilt Films’ Bryan Storkel and produced by Amy Storkel and Daniel Judge, covers the sometimes controversial but always successful career of the youngest of bowling legend Dick Weber’s three sons. Pete Weber, who made his PBA debut at age 17, went on to win PBA Rookie of the Year honors in 1980. Still active on both the traditional PBA Tour and the PBA50 Tour at age 53, Weber has won 37 PBA Tour titles (fourth-best on the all-time titles list) and earned more than $3.8 million (second only to Walter Ray Williams Jr.’s $4.6 million) despite occasional clashes with PBA leadership, battling personal demons along the way, and never apologizing for his approach to life and PBA competition. While capturing the essence of Weber’s career through the eyes of his fiercest competitors as well as Weber’s own insights, Storkel also provides ―Bad Boy‖ viewers with a history of PBA competition during the Weber years. ―It’s been an amazing experience,‖ Storkel said of producing the film. ―I knew about Pete for a while. I saw him in ―League of Ordinary Gentlemen: a few years back. When we were asked to do a 30 for 30 film, I thought about bowling because 30 for 30 hadn’t done a bowling segment, and I immediately thought about Pete and his father, and how their lives were all centered around bowling. ―I think having the father-and-son element creates something even nonbowling fans will enjoy,‖ Storkel added. ―It’s really a human story, not just a bowling story.‖ After reviewing the film, despite it showing some of his darker moments, Weber’s reaction was, ―I thought it was awesome.‖ PBA CEO and Commissioner Tom Clark said, ―The story of Pete Weber is one of the most compelling in sports history. It was a great decision by ESPN to feature Pete’s story in its artful 30 for 30 documentary series and producer Bryan Storkel captured the story in a way that will entertain and inform those familiar with Pete’s career while also introducing him to those who don’t know much about him.‖ Prior to its debut as part of ESPN Films’ 30 for 30 Shorts series, ―The Bad Boy of Bowling‖ was shown at more than 25 film festivals across the United States, where it routinely received rave reviews and won a special jury prize at the DOC NYC festival, one of the largest and most prestigious festivals. ―The film’s largest screening was at the Maryland Film where it played to hundreds of fans on opening night,‖ Storkel added. ―We could hear the crowd laughing out loud, crying… It was pretty special.‖ ―The Bad Boy of Bowling‖ will be widely available to fans through ESPN’s and PBA’s digital platforms and social media outlets following its formal release. February 2016 - www.bowlingworld.com 7 Helen Duval’s Bowling Tips Idle Bowling Thoughts By Chuck Pezzano (reprinted in honor of his dedication to bowling) Spare Shooting Arena Bowling Several times I’ve mentioned the second arrow as the target for a strong delivery. If you have been working on this and are fairly consistent, then it’s time to learn spareshooting. May I suggest that in your shadow ball warm-up or practice sessions before leagues or tournaments, you roll the ball only over the strike spot and concentrate on developing a smooth approach. If you do this in practice, then when the league or tournament starts you will be ready for anything, because spares require only a strike ball delivery from a different angle. Here are two very simple ways to learn spare-shooting: Limit your target area to the second and third arrows and to the spot between them. This represents area of five boards. Confine yourself to three basic positions on the approach. If you learn these, then everything will fall into order. First we’ll take the 7 pin spare (10 pin for the left-hander). Get into your strike position. Then look at your sliding foot. Move your sliding foot at least five boards to the right. Point both feet toward the 7 pin (10 pin for left-handers). Look at the area between the second and third arrows that will serve as the target 15 feet down the lane. When delivering the ball, walk slightly toward the target pin, lean and reach out, making sure to follow through like an arrow toward it, rolling your strike delivery ball. If you honestly did all these things and your ball did not quite get over to the target pin, try again, starting a board or two to the right. Remember: Your body, spot and ball line act like a pair of scissors. The more you move to the right, the more the ball travels to the left, providing you use the same arrow area as a target. Be careful not to move more than a board or two at a time. The ratio of angle correction for every board you move on the approach is one to three. If you move one board to the right and shoot at the same mark, the ball hits a target three boards farther to the left. Now we’ll do the 10 pin spare (7 pin for lefties). Get back to your strike position. This time move your sliding foot at least 10 boards to the left. Move another board or so if you’re on the heavy side. Now use your third arrow as the mark (the third arrow from the channel on the side of your bowling arm). Yes, it will work. Try it. Walk slightly toward the 10 pin, lean, reach, deliver the ball and follow-through toward the target. Be sure to check your starting foot position in relation to the dots on the approach. Then check foot position again after delivering the ball for the 7 and 10 pin spares. The amount of drift on 7 and 10 pin spares from start to finish should be no more than five boards. Visualize the execution—your bowling arm and shoulder over the target dot or area, the extended hand point to the pins you wish to hit. This will help you do the job. Arena bowling and the close quarters in bowling championship set-ups allow spectators, and friends and fans to be within short distances of the competitors and that brings up the subject of silence. For the most of bowling’s time, fans have been urged to cheer and root in their own fashion, except at certain times. Confusing? Sure. However in reality there are few rules covering silence at bowling’s crucial moments except unwritten ones of courtesy and tradition and under the not too specific rules concerning interference and unsportsmanlike behavior. Ambiguous. In other major sports, golf and tennis, to name two, both have traditionally silent areas. It is fair to say that there are others as well. It should be noted that bowling, golf, and tennis are primarily individual sports on the professional level and most competitors are not on salary. They must pay fees and expenses to compete and income is the result of playing better than the other guy or gal. In football, baseball, basketball, boxing, hockey, and soccer, the crowds are encouraged to cheer and jeer. In some they have cheerleaders to arouse the audience to almost unimaginable heights - - - and actions. Athletes who prefer the silence feel that they should be free of distraction when lining up a putt, serving, and shooting a key spare - - - particularly since they were paying their own freight. Yet in college basketball, 18 and 19 year olds, who don’t get paid, are asked to shoot crucial shots through glass backboards amid the roar of the crowd and the distracting view of all kinds of waving objects, including hands and heads. For many years, tradition has called for silence at different points in different spots in different areas. Examples are prior to the approach in bowling, the serve in tennis, and putts in golf. It seems as though the sound of a voice, a cough, a phone ring or the breaking of a twig has had the effect of an explosion on the concentration of some participants. Golfers look menacingly into the sky when a jet disturbs a shot process and it has been reported that plane routes were changed to not bother tennis players in action. Many a bowler has almost been destroyed by a baby’s cry or the blow of a nose. Most sports encourage cheering and jeering. Most sports cannot possibly have rules to cover every aspect of silence and the officials, judges, referees or tournament directors might have to make judgment calls that would be second guessed over and over again. There are instances in every sport where the rules, written or unwritten, are pushed and battered. Silence, as well as unbridled activities, have long been part of every sport - - traditional intangibles. Competitors expect certain courtesies, and have received them, on and off the rule book musts and guides. Spectators seem to be getting more into sports, less controlled, and with the feeling, right or wrong, that their payment or even just their presence, entitles them when to remain silent, not by tradition, courtesy, or unclear rules. Strict guidelines on the silence aspect of bowling should always be considered in tournament play and imparted as many ways as possible. A loser is the ―short-shots‖ bowler who insists on telling fellow bowlers what they did wrong after every shot and thus ends up losing a bowling friend. A loser is the bowler who knows that all the bad breaks he gets in bowling will be evened out by good breaks but he’s also sure that he won’t live that long. A loser is the tournament bowler who is too busy checking out the average book without checking his checkbook. A loser is the bowler-golfer who shoots in the 120s in both sports. A loser is any bowler who can’t come up with a new excuse for bad bowling without thinking about it. A loser is a bowler who suffers a reputation as an easy loser, even if he’s a so called good loser. A loser is the bowler who insists on tight finger and thumb holes, tight bowling shirts and shoes, and then gains 10 pounds. A loser is the bowler who tells his mate that he is going to a short bowling meeting. A loser is the person who reported that the results of his survey showed that it doesn’t take too much in the way of brains to be bowler. We took a survey too. It showed that it takes less brains to take surveys than it does to bowl. 8 www.bowlingworld.com - February 2016 PBA50 Schedule For CA And NV Suncoast PBA Senior U.S. Open presented by 900 Global Sunday, May 29, 2016 - Friday, June 03, 2016 in Las Vegas, NV Ted Hoffman Pat Patterson Award 2015 Ted Hoffman of Dublin, Calif., who won the West Region’s inaugural Pat Patterson Award 43 years ago, in 1972, won it again in 2015.

It's the kind of idea that could come only from a devoted bowler. And after more than 50 years of praising the merits of the sport - touring the world as a teacher and motivator for injured war veterans - Duval isn't just devoted. She's a fiery preacher, gathering skeptical converts into something that very nearly approaches a religion for her."She takes the most challenging patients and turns them into bowlers," says Elizabeth Montanya, a spokeswoman for the Bowlers Victory League Fund based in Arlington, Va. "She takes them from being really isolated beings and sort of gives them a . . . link to real life. And she won't take `no' for an answer." The Bowlers Victory League, started in 1942 during World War II as a fund-raising group for the war effort, has been Duval's special project since the 1940s. As an ambassador for the league, and its honorary chairwoman for the past decade, she has traveled the world, even teaching Japanese crippled in the atom bomb blasts of 1945 to seek healing through bowling. "When I show up, they have their eyes down and they're there because they have to be there," says Duval, who lives in Berkeley, Calif., and is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest woman to bowl a perfect game. "But by the time I'm through with my two- to three-hour thing, they're high-fiving and smiling. It's a really wonderful feeling to see them make that 180-degree turn. "I've worked with people with no legs and in wheelchairs," she adds. "There was one man whose back was crushed and we wheeled his bed right up the lane and ran a ramp down so he could bowl." Duval, who will turn 80 this summer, still travels to 40 events a year to conduct bowling seminars and to encourage physically and mentally disabled veterans around the country to seek therapy in bowling. While a bowling alley may not have been considered the classiest of places in the 1940s and '50s, Duval would have none of such limiting conventional thought. She met her husband in a bowling alley in the '40s, and when her son, Richard, developed polio at age 6 in 1954, she turned to bowling as a therapy to build back his strength. 9-Tap Bowling Tour - Las Vegas From page 3 This week's Leader Board required a World Map. Our Champion, Kenny Reynolds came from the 9-Tap Tour - Hawaii... but he's currently serving in the Army, at Ft. Irwin, CA... but he was in Colorado visiting his family last week, before driving to LV, with wife Lisa, to bowl. Kenny is also a very PROUD Dad, whose daughter is a junior at West Point and his son was recently accepted a t West Point as well. As an only child himself, with deceased parents, he told us he was informally adopted by the Kaea family (9-Tap Hawaii Directors) 23 years ago. As it happened, the Kaea family and a few of the Hawaii Tour Members are in town to bowl and after Kenny's HOT start, they all got behind him to cheer him on to Victory. He asked us to THANK all of them for their support! Arriving later than planned after the long drive, but just in time for the last squad, he shot a fantastic 1069 using his BRUNSWICK 'Time Zone' to pull out the Win by just 12 sticks. The $1,410.00 he earned for 1st, plus an extra $120.00 from the Scratch Pot, certainly made the drive worthwhile. Kenny couldn't have been more excited bowling with all the love and old 'ohana' to support him Saturday. Kenny becomes only the second Tour Member to earn a Title in 2 different Regions, having also won a Title at Pali Lanes on Oahu, in 2014. CONGRATS Kenny on Win #2! The geography lesson continued with our our early leader David Cooper, who traveled from England, on Thursday. David and his family are visiting Las Vegas for the first time, were confident its already been a memorable trip. He shot an AWESOME score of 1057 at 12 Noon, but wasn't feeling well by the end of the squad. Jet lag seemed to be the culprit, but we hope the nice $629.00 for 2nd Place made him feel a little better. The ladies did well this week, taking 3rd & 4th Places. Chon Athiprayoon's very nice 1047 was close and she did have a shot at the Top Spot going into her last game. She took home $372.00 for her efforts. Elaine Weaver-Purdy made a strong showing for the second straight week, posting an excellent 1023 for 4th. 12 www.bowlingworld.com - February 2016 "He was in the hospital for a year and when he came home, he could only sit up in a wheelchair twice a day," remembers Duval. "I got his hands around a lightweight bowling ball and he would roll it across the floor to me on the rug. "Pretty soon, we strapped him into a chair at the foul line of the bowling alley and he'd roll the ball down the lane. Soon, he could stand and then walk to the ball rack and carry his own ball to the foul line. His success at bowling was an inspiration for him to keep exercising." Richard Duval later wound up bowling for two years on the U.S. professional tour, still disabled from his bout with polio. The game that put Helen Duval in the Guinness Book of World Records came in 1982 when she was 65. That was also a tragic time in Duval's life, however. Her husband was dying of brain cancer and she would go to her league matches as her only outing away from his sickbed at home. As she bowled strike after strike that night, building her way toward a perfect game, her teammates, all male, congratulated her quietly in acknowledgment that her husband had not long to live. "Everyone sort of came up to me, one by one, and said `Nice game' and then we just went on to the next game," says Duval, remembering the sympathy and respect her teammates had shown. Aside from her work with the Bowlers Victory League, Duval has also: helped start the Ladies Professional Bowling Tour in 1949, started junior bowling in California in the 1950s, become the only woman bowler in the Senior Athletes Hall of Fame, and been a constant top contender at the annual Women's International Bowling Congress. She is one of only two women participating in this year's National Bowling Hall of Fame tournament. Dorothy Mauldin, a bowler from Marietta, Ga., can't say enough about Duval. In fact, last year, Mauldin decided enough hadn't been said - so she started a Helen Duval fan club. "I thought there would be just 40 or 50 of us in the club, but it mushroomed," says Mauldin, who heads a 17-member board for the fan club, which will continue Duval's work of mobilizing hospitalized veterans through bowling. "We had 110 members sign up at the International Bowling Congress in Tucson last year and now we're at almost 200 members." The Victory League's Montanya agrees with Mauldin's sentiments. "She couldn't be a better ambassador for our sport," she says. Note: Helen was dedicated to BVL. Support BVL!

Atom Splitters will make their bid for an Elias Cup ―three-peat‖ in 2016 with a roster led by Chris Barnes, Dick Allen and Tom Daugherty, and completed Thursday when manager Mark Baker added PBA Rookie of the Year contender Matt McNiel and young Swedish two-handed star Jesper Svensson to complete his lineup. PBA League rosters were filled Thursday during the GEICO PBA World Series of Bowling VII presented by Silver Legacy when each of the eight team managers draft two players in a serpentine draft in the reverse order of how they finished in 2015. Earlier in the fall, each manager had protected three players from their 2015 rosters. The first highlight of Thursday’s draft was the selection of two women who have had success in PBA competition in addition to the newly-revived Professional Women’s Bowling Association. PWBA Player of the Year Liz Johnson of Cheektowaga, N.Y., the winner of the 2015 USBC Queens and Bowlmor AMF U.S. Women’s Open, and the only woman ever to advance to two PBA television finals, was selected in the final round of the draft by Portland Lumberjacks manager Tim Mack. With the next-to-last pick in the draft, Barbasol Motown Muscle manager Del Ballard Jr. added PWBA Tour Championship and recent PBA Regional titlist Danielle McEwan of Stony Point, N.Y., to his roster. But before the final pick of the draft, Dallas Strikers’ player-manager Norm Duke pulled off a trade with Portland, sending red-hot left-hander Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga, N.Y., and Johnson to Portland in exchange for Texas two-hander Shawn Maldonado and North Carolina’s BJ Moore III. The first player off the draft board, which consisted of more than 60 PBA members who had expressed their desire to be part of the 2016 draft, was 2014 PBA Rookie of the Year Marshall Kent of Yakima, Wash., by GEICO New York City WTT KingPins manager Carolyn Dorin-Ballard. Motown then selected 18-year-old two-handed player Anthony Simonsen of Princeton, Texas. Third was the Dallas Strikers who picked Ciminelli. Picking fourth, Philadelphia Hitmen manager Jason Couch selected veteran Tom Smallwood of Saginaw, Mich. The newly-named Portland Lumberjacks selected Maldonado. Brooklyn Styles manager Johnny Petraglia, represented at the draft by PBA Hall of Famer Parker Bohn III, picked veteran Jason Sterner of Covington, Ga. Last year’s runnerup, L.A. X under manager Andrew Cain, added veteran left-hander Patrick Allen of Mount Kisco, N.Y. Silver Lake completed the round by picking rookie Matt McNiel of Prior Lake, Minn. The final round of picks prior to the last-minute trade included Swedish two-hander Jesper Svensson (Silver Lake), Colombia’s Andres Gomez (L.A. X), Rhode Island’s Jon VanHees (Brooklyn), North Carolina’s B.J. Moore (Portland), Ohio’s David Wodka (Philadelphia), Liz Johnson (Dallas), McEwan (Motown) and the KingPins, with the final pick, selected New York native John Szczerbinski. The draft was covered live, exclusively on PBA’s online bowling channel, Xtra Frame. Johnson and McEwan became the second and third women selected for PBA League competition. Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J., was picked for the inaugural 2013 PBAL season by Los Angeles and subsequently traded to New York City.

The 33-year-old right-hander started her doubles set with a 4-7 spare conversion and then struck on her next 34 shots, before leaving a 7 pin on her final attempt. Cutler recorded games of 290, 300 and 299 for an 889 series, besting the previous mark of 879, shared by Katie Verbil of Wichita, Kansas, and Bryanna Coté‚ of Red Rock, Arizona. Cutler's memorable day at Thunder Bowl I also helped her and Fort Wayne's Brittney Haneline post the highest three-game total for two women with 1,615. Haneline added a 726 series to the effort. Angela Brick and Sue Jeziorski of Endicott, New York, set the doubles mark with 1,591 in 2005. Both achievements are pending approval from the United States Bowling Congress. "I was just trying to stay smooth and hit my mark," said Cutler, who was inducted into the Fort Wayne USBC WBA Hall of Fame in 2014 and now owns four perfect games and three 800 series. "We all had great lines, and everybody was striking, and I felt like that really kept us motivated to keep it going." Cutler already owned the Fort Wayne USBC WBA three-game women's record after rolling an 864 series in 2011, and she relied on that experience in beating her own record on the way into the national record books. Cheering her along the way at Thunder Bowl I were her husband, Doug, and daughter, Brooklyn. "It's an amazing accomplishment," Cutler said. "My husband and daughter were there, and that was great, especially since my husband had never seen me shoot 300." The achievement also was bittersweet for Cutler, whose mother died in October. "The hardest part was not being able to call her afterwards, since she was the reason I started bowling," Cutler said. "I'm very thankful to my family and friends who have supported me throughout my bowling career. We really have a great bowling family here in Fort Wayne."

He had a friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer in his late 40’s. He was treated and went into remission but it eventually returned. Tom said he tries to tell his story of his friend because there’s not as much awareness for men with breast cancer. He later bid on one for his son-in-law as well! ―If I can help support and grow awareness than that’s what makes it worth it. Cancer sucks!‖ October 5: Greg Winter helps us Paint the Lanes PINK for his mother who lost her battle with Breast Cancer. He loves to bowl and wanted to be part of the auction.

Lynn plans to display the Paint the Lanes Pink ball in his pro shop, Star Pro Shop in Addison, Illinois. October 7: Kevin Mikalouski’s grandmother was very important to him growing up and was diagnosed with breast cancer.

More than half of his family has been affected by cancer in some form. He hopes that donating money to breast cancer will help find a cure with other forms. ―We thank Bill and Barbara and all of the other people at Storm for trying to help such a great cause.‖ October 16: Tyler Spence said that one of his family members was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. He loves to bowl and he just wanted to help out the cause. It was important to him and he was happy he’s able to give back to something meaningful.

His bowling was always very important to his mom. His Mom sacrificed to give him the money to bowl in his very first bowling league. He stopped bowling when he joined the military and raised a family. He found when he was ready to return that the bowling community was there when he was ready to come back. He bid on this ball to thank his mom for all of her sacrifices and give to a very special cause. October 22: Warren Burr had a friend from high school who he lost touch with as they grew up. He was recently connected with her on Facebook as she was fighting Breast Cancer and going through surgery. She is a survivor and he dedicated this ball to his friend. October 23: Sinclair Wang bid on the ball for a good friend whose mother had breast cancer. She is a Hall of Fame bowler in New Jersey and he wanted to get her something special.

October 31: Kenny Lytle’s daughter-in-law, Mary Ann, found a mass that turned out to be breast cancer in 2014. She’s fought ―one day at a time‖ through chemotherapy, radiation, and surgeries. The cancer and treatments forced Mary Ann and his son Craig to delay their wedding. They were married this past December. Mary Ann has been an inspiration to her husband, friends, and family throughout her entire journey. Kenny urges women of every age to make sure they remain vigilant and get any suspicious masses checked. Kenny is proud to join Storm and Paint the Lanes PINK! Thanks for helping us Paint the Lanes Pink in 2015! We’ll be back next October with more ways to support the cause. We’re committed to giving back and it wouldn’t be possible without your help! 9-Pin No Tap Tour LV @ Sunset Strike Zone Henry Murphy Wins 1st Title Henry Murphy bowled at 1:30 and had a tough time getting lined up. He did finish with his best game, so he gave it another try re-entering at 4 pm. Naturally, Henry started out with his highest game so far on the Tour, a 276, beating his previous best by 30 pins. He stayed in that nice 'groove' except for his Throw-Out 141 game, ending up with a spectacular 872 series. Henry has been one of the Tour's most ardent recruiters, becoming one of the LV Tour's 1st Life Members, by bringing in 5 paid Members. He used a Rotogrip ball drilled by Johnny Petraglia Jr at the Strike Zone's Pro Shop, for his first Title. Henry was rewarded with a hefty $1,225.00 payday for his efforts, commenting that he really enjoys bowling on the Tour and plans to reinvest his winnings by practicing every day. He was really excited and proud of Winning his first Title and he especially appreciated being cheered on by the Bisnar and Zafra families. CONGRATS Henry February 2016 - www.bowlingworld.com 17 The 2016 TAT Amateur Nationals, Feb . 1-6, 2016 @ The Orleans (Payout list are partials, not all shown) 18 www.bowlingworld.com - February 2016 ASK BOB By Bob Korth Q. I am a right handed stroker. I'm having some trouble with my arm swing. It wraps around my body. I was taught and still bowl with a four step approach, but now do a crossover step to create some space, but the real problem I've noticed is that when I do push away I push outwards to the side rather than straight ahead. I have tried to rectify this but even when I consciously push away straight ahead, or even to the left, on video replay the ball goes out to the side and then behind my back. I have also noticed that my shoulders swivel with the ball during my approach and this maximizes the problem. I've dropped to a 185 average from a 195 over the past few months and I feel my swing is really holding me back. Is there anything you could suggest for me to try and rectify this? A. I needed some help with this one so I contacted a friend of mine and of bowling Mr. Bill Hall. Bill has been a coach to many professionals throughout his career. Bill's answer to this question is to make sure you hold the weight of the ball in your left hand. Keep the left hand under the ball and then be sure to start the push away with said left hand. On the downswing transfer the ball weight to the right hand. This will help keep the arm straight in the backswing. Pushing with the right hand causes the ball to be pushed to the right then it swings behind your body because the swing plane is thrown off. If you are left handed just reverse these steps. FYI! If you would like to get a video lesson from Mr. Bill Hall you can send an email to [email protected] He will tell you how to send him a video. He will send you back a detailed answer with video's of his own. The charge for this service is a very reasonable $40.00. It is well worth it. He sent me a video of his explanation of the above problem. Bill does an excellent job showing both why and what you need to do to correct your problem. Q. At the lanes where I bowl league it seems like a few times a night something happens with the pin rake and a pin is left in the gutter. This is right beside the pins. I have heard you are not supposed to bowl until this pin in the gutter is cleared away. Is this correct? Other league members have said it doesn't matter it is in the gutter and out of play. A. You are correct. Though pins in the gutter don't count for any score they could alter the outcome of a shot. Pins are flying around they could hit that pin in the gutter and fly up onto the deck and knock down extra pins. They could also act as a block and you could possibly get less pins because the pin in the gutter stopped it. So take a little time and re-rack or call the desk and have them remove the pin. Q. I have been having trouble hanging in the thumb lately. I have it taped up but it's either too loose or too tight. I just can't seem to get a proper feel. Do you know of a solution to this problem? A. Yes! I do have a solution for you. I have a friend who invented a better way to take up space in the thumb hole than tape. Actually it is used in conjunction with tape. It is called Magic Thumb Carpet. It is the same shape as black or white tape that goes in the thumb hole. The difference is this is soft like carpet and it goes in the back of the hole. It takes the place of 3 pieces of white tape. If you need more tape you put black or white bowlers tape in the front of the hole. You can have a tight feel with Magic Carpet but you can still get a fast release due to the fact that there is no suction created. The yarn on the tape allows air flow around the thumb. Because there is no suction it also keeps swelling of the thumb to a minimum. So you will find you will keep the feel the same longer. You will not find Magic Carpet in pro shops this is a grass roots product. The good news I have it at all times. I have been using it since 1997. It lasts a long time and works very well. If you want to buy some the cost is $ 20.00 for 10 of them plus a self addressed/self stamped envelope with 2 regular stamps. Send it to Bob Korth 750 Hemlock Ave. Central Point, Oregon 97502.

The Championship Match saw both bowlers striking a lot, but a costly 6-7-10 split from Harlin in the 9th frame opened the door for Myles to win the match and tournament 256 to 243. Myles wins $369.00 for the victory and becomes the first left hander to win a Yosemite Lanes 6 Gamer in over a year. This victory also gets Myles off "the bubble" for the TOC.

Big games and big sets galore, as bowlers surge toward the end of the winter season. Teams trying their best to hold their top spot and other teams ready to pounce, if that team falters. Always fun to see. Bowlers that are putting their best effort in the form of big scores are the likes of Ren Nakashima 300/760, Romeo Bermudez 299,756, Gary Alee 300/795, Kioni Sodaria 300/762, Kevin Amodo 299/812, Doug Leeworthy 299/788, Mark Blankenship 297/769, Shaun Reft 279/815 and Chris Rose 300/760. Great bowling guys. Keep it up! Seeing as winter leagues are steaming toward their ends, that means it is never too early to start thinking about your teams for summer. Always good to see if your team is full or if you have to find a bowler. If you are looking for a new league, Pacific Ave Bowl has leagues for all ages and skill levels.

Keeping the Memory of Tony Reyes Alive The 3rd Tony Reyes Memorial Adult-Youth Tournament is a Mega Watt Smiling Success! By: Bette Addington, California Bowling Writers San Jose, CA. In a 32-lane bowling center, located in San Jose, just three years ago, the Tony Reyes Memorial event was born. Ed Godbout, the center’s youth director, wanted to pay tribute to the man who encouraged him to start a youth program at 4th Street Bowl—Tony Reyes. Each year this tournament has grown and improved thanks to the commitment of Godbout to make this an event bowlers will come and bowl with a youth bowler and share in the memory of a person whose memory still lives on in so many bowlers’ lives to this day. Some enter with a youth friend or relative; others enter and are placed with a youth partner. Some enter to bowl in the scratch division while others come to bowl the handicap division. Some bowl just one squad; others bowl several. It’s all for fun and it’s all to help raise funds to support the Tony Reyes Memorial Scholarship. The 2016 tournament took place the weekend of January 9-10. This year’s event was expanded by adding more squads to accommodate the large amount of entries. ―After having to turn away bowlers last year, I wanted to make sure I had enough spots for everyone to bowl, so I added more squads, and, again this year, it got so big I had re-entries and I had to stop taking people in. I guess this is a good problem to have!‖ said Godbout. Godbout said he also talked with as many entrants this year to get feedback as he could and already is planning on adding another squad for 2017! This year’s event grew by about 100 more entrants. Over the weekend there were 101 handicapped teams and 35 scratch teams competing which brought his total number of entrants to 272! The tournament drew PBA members PJ Haggerty, Marty Deh, Max Epps, Chris Preble, Joe Goldstein Sr., and Joe Goldstein, Jr. Sean Mamlock even dropped by to check it out! Godbout even enlisted some of his PAB buddies to come out and help with the event. Tony Reyes’ family were there the entire weekend to take in the festivities—Jessica (Tony’s Mom), Norma (Tony’s sister), Albert (Tony’s brother), Mike (Tony’s nephew) and Gianna (Tony’s daughter). Godbout added, ―I can always depend on all of them to show up anytime I do anything with Tony’s name. They even show up in Reno for the NorCal All Stars event where I give out scholarships!‖ Something new this year, Godbout went out and ordered one-of-a-kind trophies for the champions for this year and from here on out. Although money is used to purchase the champion trophies and plaques, most of the money raised goes back in to the Tony Reyes Memorial Scholarship fund as everyone who helps put this tournament on are all volunteers. This year, Godbout said, ―I will be giving away over $4,000.00 in scholarships and adding more next year.‖ For the first time this year’s event had not one but two 300 games shot! The first one was on Saturday’s Handicap squad and was rolled by adult Scott Cramer; the second was bowled by another adult, Mark Archuleta, on Sunday’s Handicap squad. The Handicap squads are bowled on a house shot and the Scratch squads were bowled on the Tony Reyes pattern that Cathie Judy, the manager at 4th Street Bowl, and Godbout came up with. I asked a couple participants for their take on bowling this tournament—first-time youth entrant, Zack Long of Taft, CA, said, ―It was a very fun tournament, the directors did a great job on the tournament, and a great way to honor Tony Reyes!‖ Zack’s partner, Chris Preble/Coach for Fresno State Men’s & Women’s Bulldog Bowling Teams, added, ―I really enjoyed participating in the Tony Reyes Memorial. Tony was a good friend and his loss has left a great void in the bowling community. The turnout of talented youth bowlers was impressive and honored his memory. The mood during the tournament was light and fun but very competitive—the way Tony would have wanted it. I look forward to supporting the event in the future.‖ PBA regular to bowl in this event, PJ Haggerty of Roseville, CA, added, ―Bowling a Jr/Adult tournament in Tony’s name is a no-brainer for me. Tony was a mentor of mine through junior bowling and college. He inspired and encouraged so many kids to practice, go to college, and give the tour a shot. It only makes sense that his buddies bowl his tournament. It’s what he would expect from us.‖ Congratulations to the 2016 Tony Reyes Memorial Adult -Youth Tournament winners: Scratch Division: Youth/Adult 1st – Andrei Tacorda/Will Scharnow (1745) +/145 2nd – Baradas/Meikle (1706) +106 3rd – Anderson/Alalay (1645) +45 4th – Postag/Tajiri (1625) +25 5th – Favaloro/Favaloro (1607) +7 6th – Montinola/Hiraoka (1570) -30 7th – Tom/Deh (1565) -35 7th – Sager/Floyd (1565) -35 Handicap Division: Youth/Adult 1st - #3 Jasmine & Richard Matsumoto (1924) 2nd – Cramer/Cramer (1922) 3rd – Dumpit/Johnson (1820) 4th – Williams/Goldstein, Sr. (1806) 5th – Katen/Retuta (1801) 6th – Alexander/Geck (1784) 7th – Loredo/Santos (1779) 7th – Maeda/Jones (1779) 8th – Tom/Olsen (1769) 9th – Nathanson/Ferris (1764) 10th – Shene/Dawson (1749) 10th – Sager/Odell (1749) 11th – Burton/VanHam (1746) 12th – Archuleta/Archuleta (1734) 13th – Emjker/Muraoka (1729) 14th – Adams/Smith (1718) 15th – Santos/Loredo (1715) 16th – Golder/Pierce (1711) 17th – Ichikawa/Ichikawa (1705) 18th – Nguyen/Deh (1704) 19th - #2 Ichikawa/Ichikawa (1696) Life in the fast lane—Tony is smiling down on Ed Godbout this month as he just found out he was chosen as the 2015 PBA Tony Reyes Memorial Service Award recipient! And rightfully so, as he is already working on the 2017 event saying it will be held again in January, ―right after the holidays‖ as that time seems to work out because there are no other tournaments going on at this time. In addition, he currently has a youth program of 40 bowlers. If you missed this year’s event and would still like to contribute to the Tony Reyes Memorial Scholarship fund, donations are accepted all year long. You can follow on Facebook by liking the ―Tony Reyes Memorial Scholarship‖ page, or you can reach Godbout at (408) 314-0248.
