    Robert Smith has more revs then all 2 handed bowlers

      Definitely not all, a younger osku was pushing like 650 revs same with belmo at one point but don’t get me wrong there are very few two handers who have as much revs as Robert

      If you’ll do your searching you see that Smith had a near 700 rev rate . Well documented. So yeah his was the highest all time so far including osku and Belmo.

    Robert Smith sold me my bowling ball. I had no idea he was a bona fide ESPN bowler until some guys at another bowling alley told me.

      He was the most incredible crank bowler of all time. Two-handlers are trying to match that rev rate!

    He drilled both my bowling balls! He drilled my first one a few weeks ago and my 2nd one a few days ago. I did not know he was a pro bowler until my friend, who is being coached by Rob, that Robert is a pro! I was talking to Rob all casual and shit and little did I know he was a pro! thats crazy

    Taylor Lanes. I worked there as a mechanic and I was there at this time behind lane 40. These pros when throwing their bowling balls have a completely different sound when in the pits compared to the average league bowler. Pros like Robert Smith you would thing something is about to break on the cushion after he throws.

      @crimsontide1980 3 месяца назад

      ​@gregamerson9172 Not 100% accurate. I've seen some pencil thin bowlers who probably couldn't curl a 25 pound dumbbell, roll the ball 19-20 miles an hour with over 500 revs per minute. 2 handed bowling really helps some of the less physically strong bowlers get insane power. Don't have to me particularly strong to roll a powerful ball. Being strong doesn't hurt though
