My 4th USBC convention under my belt. Another good trip, full of good eats, great education, and motivation from the gang at USBC. The more I do this stuff, the more I appreciate what it takes to be a governing body for the sport of bowling. Eager to take it all home, and continue our progress in RI as we grow our membership and continue to serve them. Flight home leaves in a few hours, can’t wait to see my fam.

Bowled my first non EP Lanes regional in a couple years today at AMF Woodlawn in Baltimore. Was a good day, making the top 8. Needed to find a way to get some work in before Reno, so this was the way. Pretty high scoring environment, but I was able to keep up and actually put together a pretty good 12 games overall. Threw my Storm Concept for the 1st time, and on a 43ft regional pattern. Played em way out, and pretty straight, and this Concept was incredible. Damn thing is good. Best part of the weekend though besides the good reps on the lanes, seeing my fellow Greater LA area brother Fero Williams who is the GM here. And the biggest reason I made sure this was the event I bowled. Now for 6 hours of road rage and a few F bombs at various people on my journey home.
