Obviously you've never bowled at Hamler Lanes. Now there is a real test of skills.
I'll put them up to Leipsic as they are pretty different/challenging also.

Before Holgate's burnt down.......there was a challenge
those of you that bowl in Lima heard of Shannon Ingramm III?

I didn't bring up the former Timberlanes in Holgate because I hate to re-live the terrible loss from that fire. (Not any lives, but a lifetime of memories).
It doesn't get any better that kicking up water rooster tails as your ball went down lane 10. I did my share of complaining about some of the conditions there, but the old adage rings true again.
You don't know what you have till it's gone.

I can second that Louden, I grew up bowling at the Lucky Lanes in Continental. We had our share of rooster tails there also.

Leipsic is still oiled by hand and is an adventure every time you go. Only a 6 lane house but you gotta try the crackers, cheese, mustard and horseradish. Weird combo but tastes awesome with some beer!

Happy to report that Phil Austin was just inducted into the Lima Bowling Association Hall of Fame. As to Norada Lanes bowlers winning the majority of handicap bowling tournaments, they will continue to do so as long as the Association is putting out the Pro shot for all their tournaments. This Pro shot is bringing the 210 and 220 average house bowlers down to the l70 average and with no handicap they are not going to win anything. I understand that next year the tournaments will be bowled on house conditions and you will see the Norada bowlers unable to be competetive. With the house shot you must be young, strong, and not know how to bowl - just throw it long, hard, to the right (Or left for lefthanders) and hit the bumpers. There are a few bowlers that can score on any condition (they know who they are).

Congrats to Phil on the accomplishment. He is a great guy who has been nice to me every time I talk to him.

When you say bowling schools, are you referring to college or talking of transferring? OG has a pretty good program that is close to you. I am not familiar with any from Lima though. As far as colleges, I am not sure of any close that have that as a sport.

Not sure about which Lima schools have bowling, but down here in Mercer/Auglaize counties we've got some pretty solid high school bowling. Wapak, St. Marys, St. Henry and Coldwater have high school squads that have done well in recent years. I think they are in the West Ohio Bowling Conference with most of the WBL and MAC schools. And I believe LCC is in this conference too.

Congratulations to phil his accomplishments are well worth the honor, as for Ada bowlers not being able to compete on a house shot. Dane Parshall and Greg Austin would most likely fair well on any condition. Dane Parshall has surely proven that he can compete and Greg is an Austin so to say that Ada bowlers can't compete I wouldn't speak for all.

Hey Labatts,
Just wondering if you have bowled in the state tournament in Cinci, and if so how did it go with that shot they have out this year?
Not too good here.
