Shootout Results:

42 bowlers participated with what I thought was some surprising results:

Shootout last I believe 22 shots (or maybe 24) with only 1 frame having 8 counts eliminated and not until we had 9 bowlers left did a 9 count wipe out 5 of them. The rest were 7's and 6's with two 3 counts!!

In a hard fought battle; David Weimer outlasted everyone to take the Shootout event!!

[SteveP]

Singles 5 Game Sweeper:

42 bowlers / Paid the Top 7. Once again the scores for many bowlers were surprisingly low; while others still had a good look to the pocket.

Top 7:
1. Monteleone + 225
2. Chick + 190
3. Breaud + 189
4. McLantoc + 168
5. Weimer + 153
6. Lovell + 139
7. Landry +137

Hey Steve...

I won a shirt too!

Great tournament Steve.

Thanks for a good time.

[Mr.Smurf]

Steve,


Any word on the next NOLA date yet?

[SteveP]

NOLA 2005 will be starting either at the end of February or very early March. We are going to let the Super Bowl and Mardi Gras get finished with.

Also, you regular guys need to make sure I know the weekends that you all are bowling Nationals so I can try to schedule NOLA around those weekends as much as I possibly can. Any other pertinent info on other tournaments would be helpful too.

Thanks
