Now is the time you should be getting ready to bowl those big money tournaments in the mecca of cash kegling, Las Vegas.

In a little over 2 months, thousands of bowlers from around the world will be descending on Sin City to try and grab their share of the growing prize money there.  Did he say GROWING?  Well, thanks to the High-Roller, YES! 

The High Roller has stepped it up a bit at Sam's Town and went back to their roots, allowing just about anyone to bowl (except Pros), lengthened the format for qualifying and is DOUBLING first place to $50K!  They've made some other changes too, with sweepers, number of finalists etc, so check them out at www.high-roller.com.

Also a huge staple with the 'B' crowd, the True Amateur Tournament or TAT as it is commenly referred to, is also going strong at the Orleans, holding their Amateur Nationals.  Their info and flyer can be found at www.trueamateurtournaments.com.

Think that's it?  No...hardly!  There's the resurrected Mini-Eliminator at South Point (www.mini-eliminator.com) AND the Boot Hill sweeper for $10K (www.rocknrollgoodies/bowling). 

With SO much to bowl, it can be overwhelming to choose.  A good strategy is to lay out the tournaments on a spread sheet with dates and times overlapping.  This way you can see what is possible in a given day and make a plan.  Don't get caught up thinking you have to participate in every possible event.  After you've sampled the events, try to stay at the ones you have the best feel and look at. 

Preparing for these events physically is very important.  Now is the time to begin getting your equipment in order, planning your arsenal and practicing on patterns similar to what you'll find out there. 

USE DRILLSHEET for all it's advantages!  Load your arsenal into your profile and voila!  You've got your entire inventory at your fingertips to disect!  Now when you go to your pro shop, you can more objectively look at what you have, what you need and what you can afford to get!  Plus, EVERY tournament offers FREE EQUIPMENT.  Why not drill it there and use it?  If you have your specs with you, great places in Vegas like K&K Pro Shops will be glad to pull it up and guarantee a perfect fit...every time!

Whether you go to Vegas for fun or to suppliment your income, bring us along!
