Bowlero Union Hills - 2/16/25

Our event this weekend was at Bowlero Union Hills and we would have the biggest turnout of the season! We had 105 total entries (84 qualifying and 21 economy parlays) with 27 prize winners and a 1 in 3.89 cash ratio, paying out over $4,970 in main prize funds. The players bowled on the 41ft Beaten Path V2 oil pattern that provided a higher scoring pace. It would take about +75 to qualify for the quarterfinals.

We had our first Momma’s Mystery Pot winner worth $500! The winner was Michael Moser with a score of 160! Your winner of the drawing for the free plastic ball, with the option to upgrade to any high-performance Track ball for $99.00, was Arthur Lara!

AMF Chandler - 2/2/2025

Our event this weekend was at AMF Chandler and we would have a great turnout. We had 93 total entries (72 qualifying and 21 economy parlays) with 25 prize winners and a 1 in 3.72 cash ratio, paying out over $5,000 in main and side event prize funds. The players bowled on the 32ft PBA Wolf oil pattern that provided a medium scoring pace. It would take about +60 to qualify for the quarterfinals with bowlers needing to bowl 10-15 pins over their average per game to advance.

No one won the Momma’s Mystery Pot so that amount will carry over to our next event. Your winner of the drawing for the free plastic ball, with the option to upgrade to any high-performance Track ball for $99.00, was Greggory Kellogg!

2025 Season Preview Event

Our final event of 2024 brought us to Bowlero Gilbert for a non-points tournament designed to test the new technology systems and rule changes we’re implementing for the 2025 season. With 66 entries (53 qualifying and 13 Economy Parlay), the event paid out a total of $3,160 in prizes with a 1 in 3.14 cash ratio. This special event did not impact season points or averages, giving participants a low-pressure environment to compete and enjoy.

Oil Pattern

Competitors faced the challenging 40-foot Kegel Sphinx oil pattern. Scores were notably low in the early rounds due to the difficulty of the pattern, but as more games were bowled, the pattern opened up, rewarding accurate execution. Players who advanced to the quarterfinals adapted well and took advantage of the more playable conditions.

Tournament Highlights

Bowlero Gilbert - 12/1/2024

We would wrap up the 2024 season and the Fall Quarterly Circuit with a 2-Squad tournament at Bowlero Gilbert We would see 91 total entries (68 qualifying & 23 parlays), with a cash ratio of 1 in 3.25, paying out over $6,200 in main and side event prize funds. The bowlers played on a higher scoring 41ft PBA Bear oil pattern. We would see scores increase throughout the day as the oil pattern broke down. Since this was a flatter pattern, bowlers were able to play a variety of angles to get to the pocket.  Bowlers would need to get to around +60 to advance to the Quarterfinals.

AMF Chandler - 11/17/2024

Our event this weekend would be at AMF Chandler lanes for a 3-squad tournament! With so many other tournaments going on throughout the Valley, we were lucky to have a great turnout. We would see 93 total entries (69 qualifying and 24 economy parlays), with 26 prize winners with a 1 in 3.58 cash ratio and we would pay out over $5,800 in main and side event prize funds. The players bowled on the 32ft PBA Wolf oil pattern that played tough to start but got a bit easier as the oil carried down the lanes.  This pattern is one of the shortest patterns that are in use and the bowlers had to play a bit up the ditch to start. As the oil pattern broke down and oil started to carry from the fronts would allow for a variety of angles to be played. This center has typically been one of the higher scoring centers that we go to with the track well built into the lanes.

AMF McRay - 11/3/2024

This weekend we had a 2-squad tournament at AMF McRay.  We had a great turnout with 86 total entries (61 qualifying entries and 25 economy parlays entries).  We had 24 cashers, a 1 in 3.58 cash ratio and paid out over $5,200.00 in main event and side event prize funds.  The players bowled on the 48ft PBA Shark oil pattern that is a longer pattern in length but does not have a lot of volume in the middle.  This creates a bit of an odd transition as the lanes start to “dry out” in the front and middle parts of the lane which forces bowlers to move deeper quickly.  However, with most patterns you can still get the ball out towards to outside part of the lane and hook it back but with this pattern if you get it too far outside too early it would hit the out of bounds and not come back. This would result in some lower scores to start with scores increasing in the second squad.

Bowlero Kyrene - 10/27/2024

Our event this weekend was at Bowlero Kyrene and we would have a great turnout. We had 111 total entries (90 qualifying and 21 economy parlays) for 3 squads, with 30 prize winners and a 1 in 3.7 cash ratio, paying out over $7,400 in main and side event prize funds. The players bowled on the 42ft PBA Scorpion oil pattern that played pretty tough to start. The pattern has an out of bounds if you get your ball a bit too far towards the gutter too early, then your ball would not make it back to the pocket. There looked like there was enough of a built-in track that the bowlers were able to overcome it. We would see some higher scores as they day moved on as the oil pattern started to break down in the later squads. As the scores increased in the later squads it would take about +60 to qualify for the quarterfinals with bowlers needing to bowl 10-15 pins over their average per game to advance.
