That has to be my biggest regret is not starting to get into bowling younger. As an adult i grind practice hard but free time isnt as easy to come by and with no coach you really never fully know if what youre doing/seeing is correct. I wish i would have started younger with coaching and the ability to have so much free time to practice every day. Keep it up man it looks great!
Thank you!!! I’m sorry to hear that dude, I get you. I’m grateful that I stumbled upon the sport at the age I did. Coaching helps a ton, but at the end of the day it only matters what scores you’re putting up!
@@TheTwoHandedTour Haha i agree youre killing it man wish my 2 handed looked as good. I spent a year 1 handed even though two handed felt for natural. For some reason i cant just walk in my 1 step approach but the 2 handed hop step feels smooth and my timing is better. Do i waste a year of time 1 handed to see if 2 is my move XD
I would stick with two lmao. There are many advantages that come with it! Unless you feel you can put up better scores with one of course. There are many places where you can find “coaching” online. There’s tons of tips on RUclips and you could even join Facebook groups for personal help on your form!
@@TheTwoHandedTour Yeah i pretty much live on youtube and have a couple friends ive made in sport shot leagues that are always willing to look at clips and give advice. Like currently trying to get my lead shoulder more in front and dip my right shoulder when releasing the ball. I feel like i roll the ball better as 2 handed its just a matter of being healthy. Im not exactly a small guy and if i dont slide properly my knee feels it after the games XD
Oof yeah I bet 😅. I used to struggle with back issues because of my backswing, I was able to fix that by keep myself upright and using my legs. I recommend practicing and practicing getting comfortable with a longer slide because it provides many benefits! (Including your knees lol)
I’m 3 months into my journey. Just learned how to slide better into my shot. It takes years to perfect this sport in multiple ways. I’m glad you are still grinding bro keep it up 😤
It’s takes a lot for sure, keep grinding man!
This is awesome, as someone that's been bowling now for 14-15 years in my 30 yr life and brought a lot of my friends up from low to high averages it's cool to see your progression. Keep it up and keep killing it bud, let me know if you ever come around northern VA and we can bowl some haha
Thanks a ton man! Also will do haha
Crazy progression keep up the grind man! I just started about a year ago, working at a bowling alley and I'm a 1 hander, and to see myself going from someone who didn't know how to even throw a bowling ball correctly to 2 and a half months later bowling my first 200 to now a year later almost bowling my first 300 (yesterday, choked the 11th shot, ended with a 287 lol). This all really shows how hard work and dedication can really pay off. Awesome video man!
Thanks a ton! Glad to see you’re improving as fast as you are. You’ll get that 300 soon for sure! Keep working working hard.
Great to see this 3 year development. You have developed quite a lot, especially having more speed in the ball. I started my 2-handed life in June this year, after bowling 1-handed for 40 years...I have had some progress, but still struggling with that ball speed being too slow...and spare shooting being all over the place. You gave me hope!
That’s awesome to hear! I’m actually currently working on a video to help other two handers increase their speed. So stay tuned!!!
Congrats, if you had a coach he did well with you, and you did amazing yourself. Your form got more relaxed yet more condensed, and it looks great! Good luck moving forward
Thank you so much! I have had a coach for about two years now, she’s amazing!
Fabulous progression! I loved bowling when I was younger and was on my college bowling team. Two handed bowling wasn’t even on the radar in the 80’s! All that matters is consistency and revs when you smash the pocket! Good luck to you.
Thank you so much! I’m glad to see someone welcoming the newer style to the game!
@@TheTwoHandedTour not me i hate that 2 handed shit
Being 2-handed seems to be the way to go now. The evolution of bowling balls vs the volume of oil is the continuation of the game. It is wonderful to see your progression over such a short period of time. Good luck and continued success!
Your progress is crazy good! Keep up the good work man
Thanks so much!!!
Your progression throw their years is impressive I've been bowling for more than you have and yet you're more consistent than I am shows the work you've put in
Thank you! I appreciate the nice words :)
Hi, really impressed by your progress. I just started bowling two handed for 1year and i thought i was progressing really slowly because i only broke 200 a few times and i couldnt hit pockets consistently etc. However, after seeing your video i felt motivated again and want to persevere even more for my bowling passion. Thankyou!
That’s awesome to hear, thank you! I’m really happy to hear that I can motivate others to get out on the lanes. Keep working hard it’ll click soon!
You are a huge inspiration and motivation to other young people. Great work!
Thank you so much, that means the world!
Inspirational. Thank you for putting this together 🎳😁
Of course! I’m glad you found it so impactful :)
Great video. Awesome work getting from where you were to where you are. Hope it stays fun for you for a long time
Thanks a ton! I hope so too!
Subbed! Great video and can’t wait to see you progress even more over the years!
Thank you so much! Appreciate the support 🙏
This blew me away!, I hope your dreams of making it to the tours come true!
Thank you! I hope so too
You delivery really gets smoother as time goes by.
Thank you!
Great video kid, it was great to see your progression over the years... keep it up!
Tysm!
the progression was all on you , the nearer you got the more balanced you stayed at the end everything clicked ! it took time for you to stay down and through the shot with balance , you did it !
I started my senior year of high school last year and have made amazing progress! Love this video! Also funny seeing Carter Streets around 5:37. Another amazing bowler.
Carter Street is an awesome bowler! Congrats on your progress dude!
sick vid bro, ive been only just learning how to hook the ball so i still got a long way to go but very inspirational vid. keep up the good work man
Thank you! I’m glad you found it inspirational :)
This was motivating to watch, I just recently bowled my first 600 series. 300 here I come!
Glad to hear! congrats on your series, good luck.
Your progression is amazing watch. Keep it up man! Go win State! 🔥
Thanks a ton! I’ll try my best!
Good stuff my dude! I’m a senior this year too. And I bowled in Grand Rapids at junior gold this year. I bowled my first 300 just 5 months before you August 21, 2021. Keep up the good work my guy!
Thank you! Congrats on your 300 too!
Great dedication and skill! Good luck in future competitions!
Thank you for your kind words!!!
WOW
great video man love the hard work
The progress is insane. Keep it up man !
Thank you so much!!! I appreciate it
I have been bowling for about two years now, and I’ve been bowling one handed. I eventually hit a skill cap, (around 1 year in). I knew I had to change, but I never new the answer for over a year. One day, around a week and a half to two weeks ago, I got bored of bowling regularly because nothing was working, so I decided to bowl two handed. It was like the skill cap I had was lifted off my head, and I was putting up scores. I understand that I’ve been bowling two handed for a bit now, but I think it makes a real difference, and I watch this video for reference, if seen it about 4 times now just trying to find a good form to go by. Thanks for reading my ridiculously long comment
Awesome man! I’m glad to hear you’re finding ways to improve! Two handed bowling is a great way to make bowling interesting again, especially if you’ve hit a wall with one hand. Thanks for your comment! I have a newer video on this channel, giving some tips if you’re looking to improve your form! Keep at it dude!
@@TheTwoHandedTour the videos helped and now my form is a lot better than it was a few weeks ago
That’s awesome to hear man! I’m glad I could help! Keep grinding!!!
SAME
This is really great, I’m 14 and I’ve been bowling since I was 6 as a first generation bowler. Im not a freshman yet still in 8th grade but last week I bowled a 246. I average 185 in league and on sports shot I averaged 168 this fall. Glad to see you doing well as a young bowler
Thank you! Looks like you have a really bright future ahead of you. I wish I could’ve started a lot sooner like you. Best of luck my guy!
Very impressive. I started bowling around that age and without a coach it took me quite a while to get good but eventually I got to have over a 200 average. Never bowled a 300 but did get a 299 once. I’ve been away from the sport for about 8 years and now with watching these videos am planning on buying a new ball or 2 and getting back into it.
dude! stoked for you, hope you make it to the tour one day
Tysm! That’s the dream!!!
Keep going! Instantly recognized some of those centers in NEO.
Thank you! Cool to see other bowlers in the area on here
Just stumbled upon this channel…..great progression for sure, keep up the good work….not many people can shoot 300 that fast….just keep bowling and keep practicing
Thank you so much! I appreciate the comment :)
I wish that was me! Great job, and keep it up! 👍🏼🔮
I love it - great video - best of luck on your journey m8
Thank you!!!
Love to see this! Congrats my man!
Of all the balls you have used, which is your personal favorite and which would you recommend for 2 handed bowlers that have just started out?
Thank you! I would say my favorite has to be the pitch black. It’s a nice, controllable motion for two handers, and it has done so much for me.
earned this sub dude awesome work really dope
Thank you!
Rocking that Pantera shirt though!! Very fun video!
Thank you! Gotta love Pantera 🤘
Started bowling 8 months ago just turned 16 and I'm going to solo states as I type this in a van and watching this inspires me even tho I'm very amateur
Thanks for the video, I live really close to you I have bowled at all these places. Just have to say this you are looking good and man LOL at stonehedge for the 1994 computers! Good job man thanks for the video!
Of course man! Glad you enjoyed it!
You made that look so easy. My highest game is a 176 and I'm perfectly happy with it.
🏆 Congrats man. You've earned it.
Thank you :)
Awesome progression man
that was great man, keep rolling that rock!
Thanks Chief :)
Ay that’s cool bro. I started bowling 2 years ago for Teays Valley. We bowl out of Wayne Webbs and it’s cool to see another high school bowler on RUclips.
Oh nice! I’ve been to Wayne webbs a few times, great center!
The ball motion on the back end of the wolverine was amazing
watched the whole thing. Keep going young blood
Thanks a ton!
today was my first time going bowling! it was really fun, too! got my first strike, so that was nice. also, you are amazing at this!
Glad to hear you had fun! Keep going you won’t regret it! Also thank you :)
@@TheTwoHandedTour I think I will! Can't too often just because of school and stuff, busy schedule, but i'll still try to á much as I can. It's really enjoyable!
Good job on 300 Gavin.
Thank you!!!
Awesome video great job!
Thank you Sebastian!
That phisix boiii!! I use an all road. youre good as hell bro.
Tysm! I love my Physix haha
@@TheTwoHandedTour I bowl in Colorado. Hmu if you’re in town bro. I’d love to talk to you!
inspiring stuff!
Not going to lie, bowling for the school sounds really fun. I’ve gotten into bowling a lot more this year, and I’ve been at my two-hand game for maybe a few months? Getting my own ball and shoes soon too, can’t wait.
It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Life changing! Highly suggest it!
Other example that talent isn’t everything, hard work and the willing to learn is. If you want something, go for it. Its never to late
Couldn’t agree more, great words of wisdom! Thanks for the comment :)
JP still running this place!? Learned to bowl here when I took his class while attending KSU. Recognized the lanes immediately! Congrats on the progress
Thank you! If you’re talking about Kent 11th Frame, I’m not sure.
I wish i was this good in high school lol. I just shot my first 300 a couple weeks ago. Its an amazing feeling. Keep it up!!
Thank you, and congrats!!! It truly is an awesome feeling :)
Awesome video keep grinding 💪
Thanks! Will do :)
I’m not as skilled and I’ve been on hiatus from bowling but I started freshman year high school with maybe about an 80 average. Built up to a 180 average by my senior year. Record game at the time was a 243. Managed to place 10th individually at my districts. It was a big achievement for me at the time to show my own growth. I for my junior and sophomore years I didn’t have a good team just rotating seniors and no coach. Building up technique on my own was a tough task but I made it work well enough. I do go for fun and plan to play in a league again once I finish college. Record game at the moment is a 278. 11 strikes, 7/ on frame 4. Technically I did manage the 12 consecutive strikes needed for a 300 but that was over the course of that game and the follow up. Although unofficial at least i know I can do it.
Hey great work and keep it up. Hopefully get to see you at the college level soon
Thank you! I’m really looking forward to collegiate bowling. Best of luck to you!
Being a mostly self taught 2 handed bowler. The number 1 tip I would give anyone wanting to hook is do not use house ball but if you don't have any money to buy your own yet then next best tip is to throw straighter.
The hook is very aggressive on house ball. Not so much with custom ones. Also, I legit hope you can go pro. Been loving the trend on 2 handed bowlers.
Left field, tidy up your hair. You don't have to cut it. Make it your brand like Kyle with his hair or Belmont with his arm sleve or okayu-something dude being 2 handed but has mad fast spare shots or the super super low 2 handed dude with the massive outward support hard or the Sweden dude with his tatoos?
I agree, I started 8 weeks ago trying to hook with house balls and it sucked lol. I got a good one from my uncle and can hook quite well now 😊
0:36 his form improved tremendously at the end of august
Yo dude love it iv had almost the same progress just not as many tournaments . Gj on the 300 ur in the club. Hope maybe I might see ya at a tournament
Thank you!!! Maybe I’ll see you one day ;)
Nicely done
Thank you!!!
Great progress 👏🏾
Thank you!
I don't know who you are or why I was recommended this video, but I'm sincerely very proud of you
Haha awwww thanks!!!
I'm a lefty and want to convert to two-haneded. You are an inspiration
great video good job
i loved the face you made showing you joind the team
Lol I thought some might enjoy that
Wow that’s crazy!
As a two handed lefty with a backup ball myself, I can definitely say that the development in the swing certainly helps scores go up. What type of balls do you throw the most and what weight?
(I'm definitely a urethane bowler, and I throw 15lbs)
I throw 15lbs. I usually go with urethane, say a purple hammer. I’ve been mainly throwing the dark web recently. It’s a solid reactive and it rolls super nice.
Your'e making Belmo nervous... lol .. awesome watching the progression.
Haha thank you! I appreciate the kind words
Great work. Keep it u[ buddy
vn but it looks like you dont have enough knee bend and your swing is not in time with your footwork. your 3rd to last step (right foot) is huge and it seems like you get into a swing too early. your elbow is moving too much laterally (very far away from your body initially). nice progression though for sure! i hope you dont think im being too negative just trying to help!
No criticism taken! I appreciate the feedback. Knee bend and swing are things I’ve been struggling with for a while now. I’m hoping a few more lessons with my coach will fix these issues. Thanks for the comment!
Hold up!. Pantera shirt lil bro!!?? Awesome!
Good stuff. 👊💪👍
Thank you! I used to be a really big fan of them
@@TheTwoHandedTour once a fan always a fan brother. Awesome to see a young man into different music and sports. Great stuff, made me happy to watch your bowling progression. We had an amazing alley right by my place almost my whole life. Shut it down not too long ago. Lots of great memories.
Elm Grove lanes rip 🙏
Another Belmo in progress , nice going kid !!
Thank you!
Hell yea! good job
Thank you!
Outstanding!
Thank you!!!
1:38 BRO THAT PIN THAT ROLLED MADE ME THINK OF 7-10
Respect!!!😀👍
Keep up the hard work man I started 2 handed 2 years ago and it’s been better for me and it looks super good on u
Thank you! Keep grinding dude
@@TheTwoHandedTour thank u!!! What’s ur favorite ball to use rn mine is the hustle ink or idol
I’m enjoying the hammer dark web a lot right now. And of course the purple hammer is always a great option!
@@TheTwoHandedTour I used to have a web tour edition it was amazing till i cracked it but yea I had a purple hammer but I got rid of it now I wasn’t one again but waiting cause I might get the phase 5 or super nova. What’s ur average rn in League mine idk mine yet but my practice average was arounf 230s 240s
My high school average was a 213 last year
Can't believe I'm watching this! I LOVE bolwing! And this is the most midwest thing ever. I think I see some cousins there.
Haha 😂
You did amazing
Thank you!
Wow nice job, I’ve been bowling since I was young but I just started to take it more seriously and try to get better. I use 2 hands because it’s way easier to curve the ball in my opinion.
Do you have any recommendations? I’m thinking about buying my own bowling ball soon.
For a two hander, I’m gonna recommend any ball from the Roto Grip hustle line. They’re cheap, and a great benchmark starterball, any of them. Some other beginner balls, Brunswick rhino, Storm Tropical Surge.
As someone whole bowled in the Akron area from 2017-2019 in high school, you got a bright future🔥 wherever you go to college good luck! Maybe check out Kent State ⚡️ 🦅
Thank you!
I started bowling last year and that was when I switched to curving I instead of just bowling straight since I was now actually on a team. I’ve always been jealous of these super strong guys launching a 14-15 mph one handed while I’m over here doing a 10-11 mph two hand. I’m pretty happy I stayed two hand though because now I’m fairly consistent with an average of about 160. Not a very high average but I sure am happy with how little I practice and how long I’ve been playing.
That’s great to hear! All that matters is that you enjoy the sport. If you’re looking to improve your ball speed I’ll a video coming out soon about that! Thanks for your comment :)
Two handed doesn’t necessarily mean high speed. Actually, I find that it’s slower if you are just trying to whip it. Speed is mostly from your legs though, I’m pretty weak and can only bench like 70 pounds but I can throw it 19 mph two handed.
@@user-xs2fp2ul2o Thanks for the tip. I’m kinda same with the whole weakness thing. Since these two months since I commented I have developed a run up that almost looks like I am sprinting up to the lane. Strangely enough, me moving faster up to the lane has been my biggest factor that I could have changed.
Your progression is dope
Thanks! I appreciate it.
Awesome vid! Me and my buddy have recently really gotten into taking bowling a bit more seriously and are looking to get our first reactive balls, My avg is 120 and his is 140 any suggestions or tips? Thanks a lot hope you see this!
Thank you! Of course I can help. Now I’m not sure whether you guys bowl with one or two hands, so I’ll give some more general info. A lot of times people have issues with consistently hitting their target. Now, in order to help combat that, remember to keep your elbow in! And stay low! (Bend your knees). Keeping your elbow in will prevent you from tugging, or pulling the ball inside which can be a big issue. Moving on, the release! Make sure that your hand stays under the ball all the way up to the release! Imagine that you’re keeping it cupped in your hand. Then, when getting to the release, unload your wrist, in a yo-yo motion if that helps paint a picture. As you’re unloading the wrist, come around the ball, and make sure to follow through at your target! One more tip, keep your feet straight, and your shoulders square with your target. This should help improve consistency and accuracy. Make sure to check your foot to see if you’re finishing in the same spot every time! Thanks for your comment, hope this helps :)
Great video! I see you improvise your swing at the end of the video. Please share your improvisation Gavin!
Thank you! I do want to start making tutorials. I will hopefully include some swing tips soon!
@@TheTwoHandedTour I subscribed and will looking forward to it!
Good stuff
Started in June of 2022 and have been working to up my average. I'm averaging around a 170 atm with a PR 205 scratch.
Nice dude! A 170 average in a couple months is great, keep working hard!
Wow in 3 years you became super good. Im currently 10 months in to the 2 hand experience and I dont think ill ever turn back lol
I appreciate it! That’s right, never turn back, you won’t regret it :)
In the states clip my old high school team was beside you at like 2:50 I went to Wilmington graduated this past spring😁
Hi saw this video on my recommendation! I’m just starting out bowling and I’m trying to learn two handed. At age 22, I don’t have a coach or anyone to critique me. Any tips on how I can get better and learn how to properly two hand bowl? Loved this video, movtivated me a lot!
Hello! Thank you so much for the comment! I can definitely give a couple tips to anyone starting two handed bowling. First thing, never give up! I would start off with keeping your hand behind the ball, and having it cupped in your hand. Another big thing is to keep your elbow in, if you elbow comes out, it will cause to you to miss inside of your target. Learning to slide on your final step helps a lot to keep your momentum as well. And finally, get low! Getting in an athletic position creates more powerful form. Thanks again for your comment, hope this helps :)
@@TheTwoHandedTour Thank you!! I will definitely try those tips!
What would you say is your go to ball? Your ole reliable/ole faithful. I’ve only been bowling seriously for 6 months and i really like the parellax effect. Highest game ive shot with it so far is 265 and I just got a prism and it’s super strong. I know most 2 handers shoot with urethane but what’s your preference?
I’ve heard of a lot of success with the effect. My go to ball would have to be the Pitch Black, but as of late it’s been the Purple Hammer. I bowl on a lot of sport shots and I always know what to expect with those two. As for reactive balls, my go to would probably be the Physix, very aggressive but controllable motion and I can really go deep with my angles without having to sacrifice choppy reaction.
Wonderful progression. I'm 20 and I bowled in high school and I ended up making it to States my last year. Also I'm a lefty as well but one handed. Keep putting in the work and keep it up.
Thank you so much! Congrats to you on states btw!
Awesome I’m a 2 handed lefty as well 👍
You just gained another suscriber
Sweet! Thank you!
Can’t wait to watch you in pba
That’s the dream!

Thank you for supporting the channel!!! :)
I toyed with the idea of properly spinning the ball back in high school but never really tried to. Around the time I started watching PBA matches on RUclips (regardless of how long), which was late October/November 2021, Kyle Troup's 299 game from 2020 was when it hit me that I have to finally put my foot down and commit to something. I'm not two-handed, but he is the main reason that I'm thumbless.
I wish I would've had a more serious commitment to the sport/game earlier on but better late than never. I have always enjoyed bowling since I was a kid but nowadays it's beyond that.
I progressed from a 150-something average when I started having some form of a proper technique/spin and not having a very deep knowledge of the game to a a near-200+ average player today. I started frequently hitting above 200 average rather deep into the current fall league so my overall average in it doesn't reflect it.
awesome video man, love this. i’ve been two hand bowling for about a month now. my highest is 210. any tips to improve more my dude?
Thanks man! First off, 210 in a month is awesome! I should have a tutorial vid coming out tomorrow, but let me start you off with some tips. First off, make sure you’re sliding! That will help with ball speed a ton. Next, keep your hand under the ball, and your elbow in! A hand under the ball creates an ideal release, and the elbow in will make sure you can angle your ball out. Another tip for you would be to work on swing timing, you could be starting it too late or too early. I like to start my swing right before my second step but it varies! I’ll leave you on this one, keep your swing in line with your head! You might have to accomplish this by introducing more spine tilt (leaning left or right depending on the hand you throw with), and then keep your downswing as close to your leg as possible! Hope this helps :)
@@TheTwoHandedTour thanks, i appreciate your help. i’ll keep this in mind when i bowl again. i subbed to see that tutorial video and any others you post
Sweet! Thanks for your support!
I just stumbled across this video I began bowling two handed as well 4 years ago lol I wanted to get into bowling bc it looked fun and I saw everyone hook the lane I thought it was cool so I got into two hand best thing I ever did made varsity back to back years now my senior year coming along but congrats on your progress I rolled a 279 so I’m close But congrats again best of luck Hope to hopefully bowl against or with ya sometime I bowl at royal z lanes .
And your form kinda reminds me of a young Jesper svensson
Thank you so much! Hoping I’ll be able to bowl with you as well. Good luck with your senior year, That 300 will come sooner than you know. It’s funny you compare me to Jesper because he’s actually my favorite bowler. Best of luck again !
@@TheTwoHandedTour no problem man thank you I appreciate it and yes it will come eventually and yeah I love Jesper favorite two hand left hander of all time the physix is a great ball well your whole arsenal is legendary I’ll be at junior gold this year and if you ever find a marvel pearl get one it’s one of the most versatile pearl balls if you have any questions feel free to contact me
@@TheTwoHandedTour and thank you hope you have a great season
@@TheTwoHandedTour your one hell of a bowler you got some raw talent for two hand bowling and rolling such high scores this early in your young career hope we can do a tournament sometime 😉
