Bert was a great action shooter from from the fifties & sixties, where is he now? bert was in bklyn i bowled with him at the met majors in bowlmor in the early 70's as a 15 year old and he was ok as a bowler then those were the changing times with the lane conditions and his full roller was not the answer but i was close to him and bowled in major leagues in maple with him till the early eighties |

I called bert and had a long conversation with him he is well. mid 70's now but had a new hip put in and cant bowl anymore . is he still a character YES
he has some great storie's about old time action and how he bowled with the best. I always liked bert

Used to be good, about 40 years ago. What a storyteller. Saw him bowl 300 at rainbow about eight years ago. He actually walked away on the 12th shot knowing it was a strike. Next game, 170.

Cane has risen from the grave or else his wife has finally thrown him out. stein is now bowling on the senior tour and made the top 32 again. they must be easy or the rest are horrible. this guy sucks.

It was close between dangel and schlegel. However, the 25 second clock on tour was implemented because of schlegel. The pros were complaining. Never remember Schlegel being that slow back in the real action days. Horn is pretty slow himself now but because of his age. in his heyday super quick.
As to the quickest Roth and then a very close second and the best ever in my book WRW.

Dave Frame was as slow or slower than ernie one week on tour they had ernie and dave on the same pair. You should have seen the look on Goose's face after the first game there lanes were on the 4 th frame. the b squad was about an hour and a half late. if goose would have had hair he would of pulled it out !@!!!!!
