Congrats,Dustin. Got to watch the last seven shots.I really liked the area you played at TB.Using the Purple QZ1, and backing off some, was and always is a great way to attack the lanes at TB, during the first few games.
Just to let everyone know,that this pro-am was not the usual style pro-am that most tournaments have.This was a three person team plus the pro.About 80% of the bowlers that bowled are from the Michigan and Ohio area.
Most of them are over 220 average bowlers.Some are Michigan and Detroit Hall of Fame members.Most bowl in the All-Star leagues in Detroit.A lot have USBC national titles and some of the over fifty crowd have won PBA Senior titles. So this was a very competitive pro-am,with a lot of money and bragging rights on the line.And most of the pros knew it. So bowling a 300 when it mattered ,was nice to watch from a MOTIV Staff Member in this environment.

Hey thanks guys!! Ya that pro am was the most serious pro-am I've ever bowled in.... those guys where in it to win it!! That purple QZ1 is my favorite ball on house shots..4" pin down just rolls great for me... So does this 300 qualify for one of those fancy 300 shirts

Dustin and Brett.On the World Championship Pattern ,did you two find that you did not bowl well overall,or just did not make the correct shots on the pattern.Or do you think MOTIV equipment did not match up well.I think the new balls coming will help plug holes in the line-up, they should help with all the patterns we my see.
Even though you can't use the TZ3 in PBA tournaments, did you roll one in practice to see how it worked on the pattern.
