Took me a long time to realize that getting upset over “unlucky” pin-action does nothing for me. If I’m working on 5 in a row and leave a 9-pin, I’ll let everyone else throw up their arms, I’m on to the next shot….
Stepping foot into my first few regionals, that was the thing I noticed immediately. The level of mental control is insane when bowling professionally. Being in a bad spot mentally can also mess with your physical game. Watch some recaps from qualifying/match play, and look how calm the pros are when going for a perfect game, and achieving it or getting tapped. A lot of the time they're just as calm and collected as they were on the first ball. Franky is a picture perfect example of that.
Is Prather implying that the mental game is better on tour now than in the 90s? Qualifying was around twice as many games in the 90s. The grind was twice as long, the guys really needed those beers.
i don't think he implied it, he straight up said it, and he's right. athletes get better, not worse. there's so much more that goes into the game mentally now than in the 90s it wouldn't matter if they had bowled four times as many games, it'd still be more mentally challenging today. any of the pros who bowled back then that are still bowling today would tell you the same. bowling has never been more cerebral.
That 1 Pro is an idiot NOBODY THROWS THE Rock 🪨 better than God!! Perfection only throws Perfection God only Bowls 900 every time out He only throws Xs He knows what Spares and Open frames are but He never gets them its always 10 back!! There is Bowling 🎳 in Heaven when u see Lighting that's the Angel's Bowling when U hear Thunder that's the Lord Rolling the Rock!! God Almighty is the Creator of the Storms!!! :))

Sure. I just say, "well, at least it wasn't a split", pick up the spare and go right back to striking.
The world is 90% mental and 10% physical. The mind is the catalyst for the body.... Great video. Thanks for the upload!
