Editors Note: For over the last 30 years Don D. Simon of Mesa, has always held his own and then some. When it comes to league play and tournaments. He feels the reason why he has been so successful on the lanes, is because of two things. Accuracy and a lot of luck.

Mesa - - - Let's have a little bit of fun with this parody for a minute.
Don D. Simon says you will throw a strike.
Don D. Simon says you will roll a 200, and 300 game.
Don D. Simon says you will roll a: 600, 700, and 800 series during your bowling career.
And Don D. Simon says you will maintain a 200 average or better during the course of a 34-week league season.
For Don D. Simon, of Mesa, AZ., is one senior bowler in the east valley who takes the game of bowling very seriously. And the numbers he has been able to put up the last 30 years still continue to amaze even him. His composite average for the last 30 years is 206, and he won numerous league high average awards in that time span.
According to Bowl.com, the highest average that he has posted during the course of a season came during the 2001-2002 campaign, when he averaged 219 for 96 games in the T-Bird Classic Trio League at AMF Thunderbird.
He has one 800 series that he rolled on October 2, 2007, at AMF Glendale Lanes. That included games of: 264-279-280, for an 823 series. And four perfect games rolled on: November 6, 1994, January 9, 2002, March 18, 2002, and February 26, 2003.
"Two of the bowling balls that I still use are over 25 years old - The 3-D Hammer & the Hammer Vicious. I don't have a lot of the newer bowling balls" he said, following league play in the Bob Brown Classic at Bowlero Mesa on January 12, 2024. "The other part of it is me, being accurate enough to continue to hit my mark and get some good carry to get decent scores."
He started out bowling in a St. Patrick’s church league back home in Youngstown, OH, where he grew up. And that is where he got hooked on our game. "The biggest thing to remember is to have fun, regardless of your skill level! And that your opponent is really the pins and not another bowler."
"When I was growing up, I always bowled in just one league and averaged in the 130s as a junior bowler," he says, of his start in the game of bowling. "It was up to me to put the practice time in to get better. I would ask the higher average bowlers that I bowled with for advice, and tips on what I needed to do to improve my game. The biggest change I made early in my career was going from a conventional to a fingertip grip. I was looking forward to using this new grip. I remember the first time I threw my fingertip ball, and as it was heading towards the pocket, it kept moving left until it hit only the 7 pin! I said to myself this is going to take a bit of time to get used to! Well, I guess I got used to it, because for almost my whole career I have been the anchor bowler. I couldn’t guarantee that I would strike in the 10th frame if we needed it, but I could pretty much guarantee that I would hit the pocket.”
By being a natural right-hander himself, his favorite bowler of all-time was actually left-handed.
"My favorite bowler of all-time is Earl Anthony. He was so smooth and always cool and under control. It was a lot different bowling back then than it is now. There were wood lanes, and your choice of balls and surfaces was a hard black rubber ball! The wood lanes could wear differently because of ball friction. Now we have synthetic lanes and many types of ball surfaces and weight blocks. Today I am a fan of Jason Belmonte."
An all-around athlete when he was growing up, Don also played: baseball, football, and ran track. He is a 1971 graduate of Chaney High School. Chaney produced several college standouts and NFL athletes such as: Former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL MVP, Frank Sinkwich. Jerry Olsavsky, Mike Zordich, Matt Cavanaugh, Anthony Floyd, Brad Smith, and Keilen Dykes. Youngstown is also home to Ray 'Boom Boom' Mancini and Actor Ed O'Neill ('Married With Children Star'. He played Al Bundy). O' Neill also had a tryout with the Pittsburgh Steelers. But he was cut in the final days of his invite to training camp, and lost a spot on the roster to some guy named Joe Green. And as they say, the rest is history. Mr. O' Neill played high school football at Ursuline High School in Youngstown. And college football at Youngstown State.
"I was the Most Valuable defensive back, during my junior year of high school. Getting a scholarship to college to continue playing football was my ultimate goal," he said, of his high school football career. "But a knee injury took that opportunity away from me. I feel fairly certain that if I didn't have the knee injury, and was able to play in college, I would have played in the NFL."
He does have one memorable moment in these wide, wide world of sports that he is most proud of. "I also played organized baseball when I was growing up, and did steal home plate in a game," he said, of the moment that is frozen in time. "I was the first player in my league to steal home. That was the most surprising thing to me, after finding this out later on. It was really great that my Dad was able to capture the moment on video."
Don is bowling in one league full-time this winter, that being the Mid-Week Mixers on Wednesday night at AMF Mesa. He is also a sub in the Club 50+ and Bob Brown Classic Leagues at Bowlero Mesa. His high game this season so far in league play is a 289 bowled on 10/20/23. And high series of 698, bowled on 1/4/24. He is currently holding down a 200+ average halfway through the 2023-24 season. All this being done after surviving emergency triple bypass open heart surgery in July of 2022 and a defibrillator implant in October of 2023.
"I don't have an answer as to why I have been as successful as I have in bowling. I guess it’s just my accuracy.” "I started bowling to have fun. By practicing and doing the same things over and over again, is what got me to where I am. And remember, practice is different than competition. In practice, don’t worry about your score, just work on a part of your game that you want to improve, whether it is hitting the 10 pin, or hitting a certain mark. And the pins don't have anything against you. They are inanimate objects, so don’t get mad at them when you don’t strike. You need to change something in your delivery. I think it has been my ball speed, angle of entry, ball rotation, some luck and a lot of practice that has helped me over the years.”
His goals are fairly simple moving forward in his bowling career. Continuing to maintain a 200 average in league play, and roll a couple 300 games and 800 series.
"It's going to take a lot of practice and a lot of luck for me to achieve those goals," he said, of the above. "I need to continue to bowl my own game, which means continuing to work on accuracy. I don't throw a big hook, or have a lot of revs after my release. Its always been about finding my mark and hitting it, to find my way to the pocket."
And knowing Don as well as we do, he will find a way to get it done. He always does.
Don said he would also like to thank his parents, Sam and Madeline Simon, for getting him started in bowling and driving him to his league play and practice. His sister and her husband, Fran and Ted, back in Akron for supplying him with equipment and accessories over the years. His Uncle Ralph in Dayton for always checking his scores that are posted online and for cheering him on from long distance. And his son David, [the best “little” boy EVER!!] who encourages him by saying "nothing less than a 300" when he goes out to bowl.
