Bowlero Via Linda

Our event this weekend was at Bowlero Via Linda and we had a small turnout due to other tournaments happening simultaneously. We had a total of 54 entries (40 qualifying and 14 economy parlays) with 16 prize winners and a 1 in 3.38 cash ratio, paying out $2,255 in prize funds. The players bowled on the 47ft Statue of Liberty oil pattern that provided a medium scoring pace throughout the event.

No one hit the Momma’s Mystery Score, so that money will roll over to our next event at AMF Mesa. 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 James Strang (2nd in a row)!

Our event this weekend would be at Bowlero Via Linda. With all the other events going on throughout the Valley, we would have a nice turnout for our 2-squad event! We would see 82 total entries (54 qualifying and 28 parlays), 24 cashers, 1 in 3.5 cash ratio and paid out over $4,100.00 in main and side event prize funds! The players bowled on a very tricky 39ft PBA Chameleon oil pattern. Many bowlers would think that since there was more oil volume that it would play similar to a modified house shot, but with all the oil in the front and outside portion of the lanes it made it very hard to swing the ball. Because the pattern was not very long or very short, it allowed players to attack it from a variety of angles. The cut scores were pretty low with bowlers only needing to bowl a few pins over their average to advance to the quarterfinal round. The main key for the day was to leave a makeable spares and pick them up.

We would be at Bowlero Via Linda this weekend for another 2-squad tournament! We would see 103 total entries (74 qualifying and 29 parlays), 28 cashers, 1 in 3.8 cash ratio and paid out over $5,800.00 in main and side event prize funds! The players bowled on a very tricky 39ft PBA Chameleon oil pattern. A lot of bowlers would think that it would play similar to a house shot, but with all the oil in the front of the lanes it made it very hard to swing the ball. On the fresh if you got too wide with your angles too early, then it would overreact and go through the nose for a split. We had a variety of bowlers start off well, but once the pattern started to breakdown, then we would see players that like to curve it move left and see some higher scores. The cut scores were not too high as you only needed to bowl a few pins over your average with the A Division having high scores than the other two Divisions.

We would be at Bowlero Via Linda this weekend for our final tournament of the 2023 Season and the 2023 Fall Quarterly Circuit. We would have a great turnout for our 2-squad event! We would see 104 total entries (82 qualifying and 22 parlays), 27 cashers, 1 in 3.88 cash ratio and paid out over $6,500.00 in main and side event prize funds! The players bowled on a very tricky 39ft PBA Chameleon oil pattern. A lot of bowlers would think that it would play similar to a house shot, but with all the oil in the front of the lanes it made it very hard to swing the ball. On the fresh if you got too wide with your angles too early, then it would overreact and go through the nose for a split. We had straighter players do well to start but once the pattern started to breakdown, we would see players that like to curve it move left and find some success.
