Grab your balls...we're goin' bowling! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Roxbury Devil: Well, I was fi ally able to get the time to make it out to the GZ. It wasn't pretty with lots of mud and mess. But the spot where the cache was originally hidden has completely decomposed and I tried digging for the cache in the area where I remembered it being hidden. The sad news is that this geocache is gone, and I have to reluctantly archive this puzzle cache. Fun while it lasted.

Geocache Description:


Cache is NOT located at the Published Coordinates. I love to bowl. Have been an avid bowler since I've been nine years old (36 years to date and know you know how old I am!), and was good enough to turn professional by age 15. But I figured there is no better way to find my cache, then with some bowling trivia! Answering the questions below will get you the coordinates needed to find the cache!

Questions #1 through #3 will help you find the latitude coordinates (North) for the final cache.

Question #9 – Want to bowl in a tournament? What number is the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that covers the Roundness of a Bowling Ball?

Small parking lot near cache will make the find easier. BEWARE, the possibility of muggles may always be present - any time, any where. Also, depending on recent weather conditions, the trek could possibly have standing water, or could be muddy as well. PLEASE REPLACE THE CAMOFLAGE, FOUND ON THE CACHE IN THE SAME MANNER IN WHICH YOU FOUND IT!!! You can check your coordinates, with GeoChecker, using the following link: (visit link)
