Hi guys,
i have problems viewing the link provided. Could someone please tell me, how does one prove that his/her average is 169 and below? Do we have to be an STBA member or member of a certified league to play? Because those are the ways to get a certified average.

Ding SG

airgrinder & harmzuay, you guys keen huh Question Smile

Harmzuay, you just cut & paste onto your Internet explorer & viola Exclamation Wink

Ding SG

Zerty, just a Qn...... the fun bowling for B graded bowlers(HDP 169 & below) doesn't seem right.

How come the past results' is so good Question Exclamation Shocked

Their scores are beyond 170 or even 180/190.

Rolling Eyes Shocked

zerty SG

apologies..it's 40... Rolling Eyes the avg can come from anywhere....stbc..ur league...some dun even have but dun get caught of cos....if u see the results carefully these pple are really not that good they just have one or two high game peppered with 150s...see???

zerty SG

guys....if your avg is abv like 180 and u take part, u may be able to win this tournament but the guys at planet bowl will ban you for future tournaments.... btw ding, check out the scores of the graded 'a' tournament and compare it with the 'b' tournament...u will see that the scores have a wide range for the 'b' games...not to mention the females who have an avg of abt 170 + their 10 point handicap, they are quite a force Wink anyway half the top 10 is female the last i bowled there...so anyone still interested??

Deamon SG

Hmm..judging from past results, seems like the lanes are pretty high scoring type with moderate carry down. otherwise how can one easily 400 series on a pair of lanes and hit another 400 on another pair again(assuming lane change after 2 games). There must be quite alot of oil in the middle of the lanes is it?(just my guess, never try b4)

To bowlers who have tried there b4,how's the hse condition like?

Ding SG

Not sure man... currently the place is quite out of the way. But the Farrer park MRT is coming up soon then it will be a short distance away Smile

The lay out is alike Silverbowl & Royal Bowl with lanes on both sides Wink

Synthetic lanes...

zerty SG

lanes are really oily and they are wooden….people tend to hit 180-220 quite often but scores like >250 are really rare…

Grade 'B' tournament my a**. That's a very high standard for a mere $300 dollars. I'd thought it was some high-roller tourney had it not been for all the graded 'B' issue.
It's tantamount to hussling! Cheating the money of real players who tell the truth about their averages.

zerty SG

hmm…that day’s bowlers were mostly below 169 avg bowlers cos i know some of them and that’s what their league avg says…some of them are new bowlers who bowl for less than a year…but i wonder….these tournaments never cease to amaze me…..but then if you have been bowling long enuff…u would realise that the real sharks are not there….

Ding SG

Yes... and the sharks at Cathay JE & Jackies...... Mr. Green

airgrinder SG

where are the whales then?? Twisted Evil

Ding SG

Whales sleeping... Surprised
