Hello, my name is Mark. I am the Owner and Technician of Benchmark Pro Shop.   I grew up in Chagrin Falls, Ohio and have been bowling since the age of 7.  At the age of 17,  I was working with  PBA Hall of Fame Mike Durbin, who gave me an opportunity to work with him which he taught me how to drill an oval thumb to prevent  blisters and calluses until  I moved GA. in 1979. 

 

I am looking forward to meet you and hopefully do some work to enhance your needs. I specialize in ball drilling, layouts and enjoy working with customers. I am constantly keeping up with the new trends and techniques to improve my skills.

 

Here are some of my accomplishments:

 

52 years of bowling ball drilling experience.

40 years of PBA Member.
