The TOUR'S 'Best 3 of 4' format usually leads to some tight scoring and this week proved it again.  Many bowlers had chances to top the leader, but just falling short by one game or even down to one frame.  High score of the day was a 2nd Squad 848 series, with the 2nd thru 5th place finishers each having two games totaling over 500, leaving them a shot at #1, but they each fell short looking for that third BIG game.  Every 9-TAP MEMBER would love the chance to throw one ball for $500.00.  Saturday we had two of them. Chuck Hufford had that chance, as he was trying to finish his game with the final 7 Taps, but tugged it a little for a split on #7.  Adam Hamlet also had his chance for the Middle 7 Taps in his final game.  He pulled it left for an 8 count, to spoil the run (he did get another Tap on his next ball of course).  During the day we racked up 5 players all tied with 3 TAPS, each would have received the full $50.00 each.  But alas this was all spoiled by Anne Johnston (from Spokane), shooting the Front 4 in her last game of the day.  Her 5th frame ball came up high leaving her with a split to end her run.  She collected a nice $100.00 for her 4 Taps.  The 9-TAP JACKPOT remains over $6,000.00 again and all ties will continue to be Paid-in-Full.
