Wow, you were getting way more hook than necessary. I know how that goes, man. I've been there. By the way, great job on the 6-7-10 pickup. And some of you guys need to be nicer. He was obviously getting way more hook than necessary, as I already pointed out. Dunno if it was because his bowling balls were the kind that are designed to hook a lot, or because of dry lane conditions. But, regardless, too much hook can make it hard for ANYONE to do good. So, be nice, guys.
Exactly. So many ppl think that getting strikes means your good it doesnt. Ive bowled over 15 300's and spares is what makes you a good bowler, ask any pro and they will tell you the same.
It's a matter of playing the angles. The optimum angle of hitting the pocket for the highest chance for a strike is between 4 and 6 degrees. It minimizes deflection of the ball which allows it to carry through to the 8-pin (given you're a right-handed bowler).
yah its very true. its quite obvious though. but im 17 and i book around 220... ive been bowling for a few years i always start practice out by throwing my 7's and 10's then move onto hitting my marks. trying to never miss, this is a basic way to improve your game... also if your on a sport shot you need to be percise unless you have a rev rate of around 550 like me you can area shoot on a sport shot which is useful...
Not bad. Im currently avg 230 on a house shot and 220 on a sport shot. I usually will go practice and just shot for spares not strikes. Or work on timing and technique.
lol believe it or not i got the Total NV, but it seems to only work for light oil lanes, i keep getting recomended for the roto grip cell or one pearl....but i was lookin at ultimate inferno and hammer bite
you might wanna play a tighter line between 3rd and 2nd arrow. It seems as if you are playing 2nd arrow but the backend is really quick. Try playing a little more inside, and work on getting more consistent throws. good luck!
since the ball would be going at an angle when or if it bounces off the pins u have a better chance of striking cuz it wont bounce as much when it hits the pocket
It would seem that alot of your overhooking problem is due to changes in your ball speed. The slower you throw the ball, the more the ball will hook, no matter how many revs are on the ball
Not bad, you're good at picking up spares but you're not great. Find a mark and you can get that strike almost every time. I'm 16 and i average around 165 bowling straight. My highest game is a 248
@mfads1990 On my side it says 4 months ago. And I didn't notice it until now. Well idk. All I know is you replied to my original comment, and the way you worded it, made it look like you were saying "Tomahawk00984 doesn't know what he's talking about." and then proceeded to explain why you agree with me.
Well i don wat oil pattern is that but wat i know is that da angle is too wide n the revs too weak aint enough 2 bring it smashing in2 da pocket...should;ve used a much stronger ball 4d wide angle n able 2 compensate da revs...
At least he gets revs a bit right, all he needs is proper aim, some help should clear that up and he's ready to be pro, most people can't anything good about how they bowl.
my writing on here which is some what in a forum setting I dont need to be formal or make correct punctuation's, I just say it how it is. Yea I could give up making 105k a year as a controller. But, I like my job and not going to give it up. Like I said I bowl in the regional tournaments when they dont conflict with my schedule.
@frizzle101101 please getting strikes all the time does not mean you are good getting spares is where the real skill comes in, think about that next time
sped up your ball and put more of a toarck on it and its allways a good idea to stand on the far left of the lane or right and am through the middle arrow throwing it that way you are alot less likley to not be able to adapt if its slick you should only be going out to the 2 arrow wich right past that is usually the point of no return and i hope your scores improve from when this vid was taken
@Star0in0the7making you are probably throwing the ball to hard . For starters try holding the ball like you are shaking hands with a friend . throw it that way and see what happens you should have a little hook . also you should stand in the same spot and learn to shoot for the arrows . for beginners i say stand on the second dot from the right and shoot at the second arrow to the right .
@mfads1990 are you saying I don't know what I'm talking about? because I think we're in concurrence here. I said he doesn't seem to be all that good, and you just said he frequently missed the good pocket hit.
even with the lower ball speeds here, five bucks says every one of these guys could have played straight up 5. here's a tip (=p): bending the boards is overrated. if you can play down and in, do it. how do you think walter ray won most of his tournaments? by only playing a big hook if he absolutely had to
ok you have decent mechanics, but just learn to read the lane and get consistant... and those lanes are bone dry so you really need to sharpen your game up
man, this almost put me to sleep. i have seen the old fuckers league on mon. morning that put more revs. on the ball than that. and the 2 strikes i seen were not even pocket strikes.
Obvious frizzle was never told this and thinks they are good. If you ever bowled a youth league and had good coaches than they would tell you that "Spares count". I rather get all spares in a game than be that person who has strikes and open frames in a game.
LOL dun judge a book by its cover.. i mean come on.. when you just started for a few months are you sure you are a pro? you have no right to judge another person.. its true rev is an important aspect of bowling.. but come on..
Dude abandon the hook shot obviously you cant hack it. Try a straight shot from right to left direct into the pocket. You are inconsistent and hook it and hope for the best. anyone can sling a hook shot and clearly you cant play it. dont try to be a pro just play for average man
lmao again. sure you know a lot about bowling. Reason I dont go pro is b/c I have a great job as a air traffic controller. I bowl in the regional tournaments when I can get away from work. Hell there are a lot of pros that actually have a another job besides bowling. Norm Duke runs his own property company, he flips and sells houses. I know plenty of ppl who have a high avg on sport shots and dont go pro bc they have a great job. Again, stop trolling your making yourself look stupid.

I would say that spares are more important in bowling. If you miss two or three spares in your game, then it goes down the toilet.
2:03 I LOVE THAT PIN ACTION!! #LOL it just looks really kool :)
thats cool. got some nice spins on thoses balls

@ :50, I made that shot in league YEARS ago.... Those were the days.....
:)
Nice conversion @ :53!!!

jeez ur really good.
lol believe it or not i got the Total NV, but it seems to only work for light oil lanes, i keep getting recomended for the roto grip cell or one pearl....but i was lookin at ultimate inferno and hammer bite
I like bowling!
yea ive thrown it b4 it is nice, but i was lookin for ultimat einferno or hammer bite
you might wanna play a tighter line between 3rd and 2nd arrow. It seems as if you are playing 2nd arrow but the backend is really quick. Try playing a little more inside, and work on getting more consistent throws. good luck!
i did that last year, my first year of bowling, lol.
since the ball would be going at an angle when or if it bounces off the pins u have a better chance of striking cuz it wont bounce as much when it hits the pocket
track 919c, track 503c, storm virtual gravity nano pearl, storm frantic, ebonite mission, also a taboo by hammer but dont use it to often.
yeah man, either get the total NV, or the ogre SS is you like snap ballz
i almost couldnt stop laughing when i heard he Bowls overhanded
i love bowling
0:50 GREAT shot.....!!
i remember this i was 5 year old in 2015 or 2014
wow you got your first strike in the vid at 1:38 wow
It would seem that alot of your overhooking problem is due to changes in your ball speed. The slower you throw the ball, the more the ball will hook, no matter how many revs are on the ball
nice shot- 1:58
yeah i was like him before and thought cause i got a few strikes i was pro but i realised that spares matter i turned my average from a 120 to a 156
NICE SPARE 0:50
Put some oil on the lane and not outside of 7, but the first 25 ft of the lane
is the black and gold ball the elite saber
Get a Roto Grip Pluto or Neptune or get a Storm Hyroad.
it looks like you may need a new bowling ball. or you need to cut the revs for now and just play straight
i need a bowl for medium-heavy oiled lanes, any suggestions???
one thin pocket ^^
i might have an idea for you. what price range are you looking at
which of them the most of them are too high in the pocket
beat me wen i was 12 didnt start bowling till i was 17 one year later i got 192 all fukin gramma shots.
Not bad, you're good at picking up spares but you're not great. Find a mark and you can get that strike almost every time.
I'm 16 and i average around 165 bowling straight. My highest game is a 248
@carlorowan your right

nice on at :50
Stand more to the right and use less hook ball
jumpbowling
it has a better chance of hitting the pocket
I wish I was this good.
Wait, I can actually control a ball when I throw i with more revs on it...
heres a tip:
Move left. You're hitting too high!!!
At least he gets revs a bit right, all he needs is proper aim, some help should clear that up and he's ready to be pro, most people can't anything good about how they bowl.
how it hits the pins
Columbia 300 scout reactive???
I kept trying to watch this random youtube video and you kept getting in front of the frame.
Can anybody explain what's the benefit of spinning the ball instead of just letting it go straight?
If you give revolutions to a ball it will hook and therefore allowing for more strikes

@hambones444 And then we learned about revs and how to throw it haha
crazy

finnally someone understands :D
6-7-10
watch the 8 pin at 2:55..It like slides lol
or you just buy a spare ball without hook ^^
who threw the ball at 2:02???
@motocross223Tanner thats wrong
@hambones444 Yup :)
nothings gonna help u if u cant hit the same spot twice.....
you only hit the pocket twice and that was obviously by chance
thing is, i barely see any strikes or spares in this. dont get me wrong, there are a few, but it's kind of pointless.
14 = high 243 now im 15 and i threw a 258
lanes look soooo dry!
6 7 10
@mfads1990 doesn't seem to be quite the "striker"
God I hope you where having a bad day or something..Throwing that kinda gear and still failing...
actually i hold a 214 average...
Move to the left
These bowling balls don't match well with your ball speed, especially the Total Inferno. Try a Mid-Performance ball.
@jrpacman my name is on bowling world online.com under news for shooting 300
ok you have decent mechanics, but just learn to read the lane and get consistant... and those lanes are bone dry so you really need to sharpen your game up
this is almost epic in it's failure
man, this almost put me to sleep. i have seen the old fuckers league on mon. morning that put more revs. on the ball than that. and the 2 strikes i seen were not even pocket strikes.
he needs to bend his nees

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
so inconsistent
no accuracy or precision
LOL
dun judge a book by its cover..
i mean come on.. when you just started for a few months are you sure you are a pro?
you have no right to judge another person..
its true rev is an important aspect of bowling..
but come on..
