    Blog #3 - Updates

    Hello everyone! Hope you all had a great holiday season!  After a much needed two weeks off, it's now time to turn my attention back to bowling and hopefully finish out the season with a bang.  Minor injuries aquired so far through the season have subdued, and I feel as focused and motivated as ever!

    First of all, my apologies to those of you staying up to date on my blog for not posting about the Tri-Regional in Reno.  Truthfully, there wasn't much worth writing about.  The whole trip was in shambles from the get go, and between all of the missed flights, traffic, snow, and even a 2 a.m. wake up call from Reno's boys in blue for welfare check fraud (Don't worry they had the wrong room!) I just felt it was best to let what happened in Reno, stay in Reno.  If you are still curious about how it went, I'll sum it up.  I bowled terrible.  Wrong equipment, wrong surface, wrong everything.  If I would have had a ball to put the snow tires on with, I might have had a look, but honestly, I don't think anybody was going to beat the lefties out there.  They had the world.  I've never seen so many left handers make the cut in one tournament in my life.  But hey, to those out there that took advantage of what they had, more power to you!  I can't say I havn't bowled tournaments where the righties had the look and the lefties were shut out.

    Tomorrow morning I leave for Medford, OR to bowl the rabbit squad for the PBA Lumber Liquidators Championship.  It will be a tall order to make it, but I have a couple new Columbia Momentum's drilled up that should have a pretty decent look.  I've matched up well on the Cheetah pattern so far this year, and I feel like I am in a good situation to make a run at something big.  I'll do my best to keep you all updated.  Until next time!
