@@SKRUBL0RD Lmao you definitely still have to be good to bowl two handed. He’s a pro so he’s going to have the fundamentals down already. Your average 2 Hander isn’t doing this on a league pattern.
@@bryqi2229 league pattern is your typical house pattern which is easy as fuck to bowl on. I bowl one handed and did 2 handed once and got 234. Its easier two handed then one.
@@ericpadilla2454 If I wanted to talk about house pattern i would’ve just said THS. Unless you go to some Bowlero or run down alley, your non-beginner leagues will have a different pattern. Also, in terms of easiness, sure, easier to hold the ball with two hands lmao. It’s still the same fundamental of staying behind the ball & hitting your target. If we want to talk about easiness, I could just keep throwing the ball straight at the pocket or to pick up 7/10 pins & do good as well. Revving the ball more doesn’t mean it’s easier to score more.
I had a triple 6 series recently and kinda chuckled. My last four weeks on Thursday night league, I'm averaging 214 so, pretty happy about that. Just wish I was having the same success on Friday night. Season averages are 200 Thursday and 189 Friday. Your 2 handed game, Darren, I'd say is a 7 out of 10. Keep it up, bro!
Time to make the switch! Good bowling. You mentioned not knowing the layout of the ball and stuff, I one day hope to expand my knowledge on every detail like that as well. Congrats on 256 Jesse
YESSSS THE TWO HANDED CONTENT IS UPON US!! :D I always like two handed content, being a two hander myself. I'm not saying you should do this more necessarily, but damn I really like this stuff! It is your channel after all. :)
I'm going to give you a 9.99 out of 10 (there is always room for improvement) the reason it ranks so high is this vlog has showed your versatility as a bowler, you aren't just fighting lane conditions you are bowling with equipment that isn't yours, equipment that isn't suited for your game, and drunk idiots who think because they are alive they can give advice to the elite in a field and they can't even hold a light in the field. Great job Gents.
Legit question: Do you think that it would be legal to have a thumbhole drilled for the IT system, but to plug it with an undrilled thumb slug when you want to use it without the thumbhole? Assuming you have a way to remove it and everything else is normal/legal
@darren (or anybody, really) - I noticed that you shoot your left side single-pin spares (e.g. 4 pins) going straight up the lane rather than across. I've been having issues throwing plastic across my body at 4s and 7s. Is there a good primer somewhere on the sorts of stand-and-target spots for throwing up the lane at those?
Here’s how I shoot my four and seven pins. I stand at ten board (second dot from the right), and I try to hit in between ten and fifteen board. I also don’t change my hand position from my strike shot, as it helps me if my ball can hook a little just to give me that extra boost.
@@JROWE2 I currently use Triax which is essentially a 3-6-9 but rather than hooking at things just throwing straight at them. I want to be able to take oil out of play entirely for easy spares.
@@JasonEllBowling In theory, 3-6-9 doesn't dictate that you hook to the ball, so you should be able to still get those left targets. If not you could always try 4-8-12.
quick question.. in a sanctioned league are you not allowed to swtich back n forth from 2 handed and 1 handed including strike balls? I use both and my two handed balls only have two holes in them. i always get asked.. "is that a legal two handed ball?" lol
Wow Darren, you're pretty good at bowling 2 handed (I give it a 9/10). Giving Chris Via a run for his money, lol. Kinda inspiring me to try 2 handed bowling again.
Do you have any tips for wrist pain? I am getting back into bowling and the last few times I have been my wrist and index finger have been killing me. I think some of it is probably how I throw at spares (break my wrist back and kinda fling it) to get the ball to go straight. I am wondering if I should get something like the master wrister and take a few weeks off? It gets so bad after bowling that I can barely pick up anything with my right hand for about a day or two
what are the rules for ABC league now? Is lefty, righty and 2 handed all considered different? In the good ole days it was you had to bowl league with the same hand the entire league even if you were adept at both, included spare conversions.
Solid 7.5/10 for the 2h game. A lot of the thumb in technique comes through in the fundamentals but there's some things for 2h that aren't there. Still averaging 225 for something you don't do every day is very impressive
For me I've had to slow down my push away and third step to fix my timing. I can still throw it 26mph at spares but I needed less speed and more confidence in the shot. I still bowl my first ball at 15 to 16 sometimes 17 if it's dry.
Spreading your hand can lead to injury depending on how much pressure your putting on your fingers. If you are snappy on the release its very strenuous on your knuckles. I had to swap to a karate chop kind of grip because my hand was hurting outside of bowling. Nerve damage is serious, so anyone reading this please heed this advice. A little extra ball control is not worth weeks of joint pain or possible permanant damage
If you throw the ball upside down, and I’m not sure if you mean the fingers come out first and then the thumb or if you mean throw it with the pin on the bottom of the ball, but either way the ball is not really going to do much. It’ll take forever for the ball to create a roll.
It needs more ball speed to get through the fronts and midlane. There’s so much rev that if you throw it slow, your ball will be in left gutter (or right for a lefty) very quickly
I got a hack scoot to the left then to the right three Lanes jump 6 times run the span of the whole bowling alley then get on the roof and squat once and a half no more no less throw the ball on the wrong lane and it is always a strick
Fun fact: That drunk was Marshall Kent and ONE White Claw later.....He becomes the "House Shot Heckler". This devious fiend stalks all your favorite pro bowlers with the most edgy PG rated banter!!!
Got two balls drilled at a Vegas over the summer when I attended the open championship this last summer now full time in two handed in league multiple games in 260’s and highest 297 amazing it’s drilled for a sport shot lanes and working great on a house pattern I crank the heck out of it though good smooth form I like it your gliding out there
I'm not a native English speaker, so I didn't quite get what the jerk was saying to Darren. Can someone please write down what he was saying to Darren? I totally understood what Darren said though
Come join us for our last night of league at South Point Bowling Center on December 21st, 2021 at 9:30pm in Las Vegas, NV! Giveaways to be announced!
Got a little grabby😅😅😅😅!! Why would he want to interact and answer 100 questions from you when he's trying to bowl
You might say 2 handed is Il-league-al
Two handed bowling with balls that aren't even his layout and he's still a better bowler than most of us. Thats a professional for ya.
My has thumb hole but doing two hand has no effect to it
because you don't have to be good to throw 2 handed the ball does all the work

Two-Handed game an 8/10 solid. That guy that was heckling you was so funny lmao. That's Vegas hahah
What an absolute DOUCHER that guy was... you handled that a whole lot better than I would have.
It was his friend learn to take a joke
The 2nd guy I see
@@jessibri665 You might want to re-watch the video 'Heckler #1' was his friend... 'Heckler #2' was some drunk asshole.
Seriously love these league vlogs, definingly the best bowling content being released on RUclips right now.
Should've told that dude "once you at least get a regional title, you'll have the privilege to critique me or my game" 🤷♂️
Bruh of course it's the night you bowl 2h you get the weirdest heckler 🤣🤣🤣
2:25 That needs to be a t-shirt... "They're Not My Balls!"
Much respect for the two-handed bowling game -- I have to give that 9 out of 10!
Zero Fouls AGAIN! Jesse you looked so much more comfortable the 4th game throwing it firm..... Rolled it absolutely great... Keep it up bro! 👊

What did that heckler even shoot lmfao
Legit question: Do you think that it would be legal to have a thumbhole drilled for the IT system, but to plug it with an undrilled thumb slug when you want to use it without the thumbhole? Assuming you have a way to remove it and everything else is normal/legal
I've been watching for a couple months now and I bowled my best game a 279 last week and I couldn't belive it. It was also my first time breaking 200
Kid in the jacket, one lane over to your right.. LMAOOOOOO. I was crying.
I would love to see you bowl a league night with a 12lb ball of your choosing!
I bowl 2 handed and I’m someone who likes to spread my hand out on the ball. Definitely an option to feel more in control and consistent.
Heard you channel some Pete Weber with the "I am," for heckler #2, but where was the "He's flashing on my approach." ? Who does he think you are?
@darren (or anybody, really) - I noticed that you shoot your left side single-pin spares (e.g. 4 pins) going straight up the lane rather than across.

10/10 in my opinion I think it’s awesome that you can switch it up and bowl as well as you did! Huge fan of yours bro!
What a tip you would give if I always flip the ball when I release it for two handed bowling
Hey guys,
What was the light green ball that Darren was using? I’m new to the serious bowling haha.
@jessie keep throwing it hard and stay right as long as you can, you seem to be more consistent when you do that! Great bowling this week fellas!
I’ve gotten so much better just watching these honestly !
great games. can you tell me what the avg speed you both are throwing at?
Heckler #2 probably has a 150 average lmao
Aye i got a 160 average but i just started, I finally hit 200 recently 😭 got a spare ball a few days ago
@@joeporonto3324 good for you!!! We all start somewhere :))))

That guy lofting the ball straight up was hilarious 😂

Is that guy in the Samoa hoodie on 7&8 bowling in sneakers?
As good as you already are...you throw it better two handed. I'm very impressed!
What was the guy at 5:10 doing?
What bowling shoes is your editor wearing?
Are they still doing the meet up??
Would love to see the results of a pro useing house balls as a challenge! Gl
what was that green ball you used in most of game two
Hyroad max
I’d love to know how much a nite league is there 40$ a nite probably?
Hey DTang - tip#1: just hit the pocket. Tip#2 REALLY CHANNEL and run the "C" in "DMC."
What layout does he have on the ufo alert
Gave ya the sub. Love the league night thing 😂😂😂
Solid 7.5/10 for the 2h game. A lot of the thumb in technique comes through in the fundamentals but there's some things for 2h that aren't there. Still averaging 225 for something you don't do every day is very impressive
I didn't think your two hand game would be so similar to your one handed game! 8/10
Love you trying other challenges in leagues, keep it up guys.
"I don't know how to strike, guys ...", says Jesse.
"Just put it in the pocket ... duuuh", says the internet 😂
How did he get a 225 tag? We don’t get them anymore.
What’s a Brooklyn in bowling mean?
For me I've had to slow down my push away and third step to fix my timing. I can still throw it 26mph at spares but I needed less speed and more confidence in the shot. I still bowl my first ball at 15 to 16 sometimes 17 if it's dry.
Bruh!!! 256 Nutt all day, great last game to the dynamic duo!!!
I always love your vids! Keep it up
What if yall started posting yalls score at the end of each game
is "Motiv Lou" in that league?
Spreading your hand can lead to injury depending on how much pressure your putting on your fingers. If you are snappy on the release its very strenuous on your knuckles.

Are leagues shooting four game sets now, instead of three???
For two handed bowling it helps to drill the holes with a ton of reverse pitch so it saves fingers from bleeding
Appreciate the pre bowling warm up routine clip… my groin appreciates it. Sorry that didn’t come out right.
PS nice bowling you two!!
Can you throw the ball upside down? Create a crazy roll out
If you throw the ball upside down, and I’m not sure if you mean the fingers come out first and then the thumb or if you mean throw it with the pin on the bottom of the ball, but either way the ball is not really going to do much. It’ll take forever for the ball to create a roll.
Does 2h need more ball speed to push through pins? 🤔
It needs more ball speed to get through the fronts and midlane. There’s so much rev that if you throw it slow, your ball will be in left gutter (or right for a lefty) very quickly
Dont change a thing darren. 👍 the bowling is strong with this one!
as a two hander, youre convincing me to get the hyroad max instead of the og hyroad. also your form looks rlly good 👍🏼
As a 2 handed Hy Road max user I absolutely love that ball.
I found the Hyroad too violent as a two-hander. Maybe if you’ve got big ball speed to go with the rev rate…
@@galaxyquestminute7490 im a bit on the slower side, around 14mph. also my rev rate should be pretty low too
Uc 3 is the way to go!
I've never seen a ball hook as effortlessly as the max.
Always a good day when we get a league video upload!
I got a hack scoot to the left then to the right three Lanes jump 6 times run the span of the whole bowling alley then get on the roof and squat once and a half no more no less throw the ball on the wrong lane and it is always a strick
Is this the first week without a foul?
DT: Thanks for not having loud music too high in the mix. Much easier to watch for me :-)
That was impressive
Way to keep your composure
These are excellent content.
Those looked like you just knew they would strike every time.
Fun fact: That drunk was Marshall Kent and ONE White Claw later.....He becomes the "House Shot Heckler".
This devious fiend stalks all your favorite pro bowlers with the most edgy PG rated banter!!!

Have you ever tried bowling two handed with your thumb but off set the thumb

Can someone explain how a lane can be bad? Idk what it means
You’re just insanely good, it was great to watch you bowl in person at the big Swiss! Is there any chance that’s going on your channel?
Congrats on being an Uncle Darren!!!
I think the drunk guy motivated you guys to hit more strikes
CONGRATULATIONS UNCLE DARREN AND MIKEY DADDY!
Wait... Jesse didn't foul?!?!? Good Job Jesse.... Of course D Tang can bowl any way he wants! Good job handling the hecklers!
OMG yo it would be so funny if Randy did the sheeeeeeeshh. 😂😂😂😂
Why they cant let us do both for versatile
I love seeing solid 10s for 2 Handed Bowlers
Lol I hate it!!
wow! dtang two handed bowling!!!
I actually use a scandal, the motive venom, and the honey badger revival and I bowl two handed so seeing that ball makes me happy lmao
I would like to hear th heckler conversation in a separate post. DTang, that was professionally handled!
The long anticipated video
I love bowling 2 handed i bowl my junior league on Saturday mornings I use the storm electrify pearl and I am looking at the venom shock
i recently started doing the hand spread thing too and went from a 180 average to a 210 and that’s all i’ve changed
🤣🤣🤣 I swear I think heckler #2 is my friend bill he moved to Vegas from Michigan earlier this year .. ask next week 😅
Most definitely drinks 😅
You’re not grabbing it enough at the bottom! And can’t wait to be back at South Point in the Spring
I was bowling thumb out one handed in the mid 90s. I would put thumb in if the lanes dictated.
Disappointed the one time i came to vegas in summer you weren’t in state 😩
Good game bro! Shit was nerve-racking but I had fun tho
7:25 The person on the right lane didn't even throw as a backup ball but how can he spare...?
I'm not a native English speaker, so I didn't quite get what the jerk was saying to Darren. Can someone please write down what he was saying to Darren? I totally understood what Darren said though
That had me lol, when Jesse started to copy Darren warming up.
