I don’t normally comment but this has been my hands down favorite video you have made. The reflection, personal insights, and banter were riveting. Thank you Packy and congratulations on your fist win.
This really does help me understand how Belmo keeps going. He just doesn't give up, he works super hard and he finds his way back. Meeting Packy let alone Belmo is bucket list
I got to do it in jax 60 this year and they was both so nice packy even came back after bowling and shook my hand and said it was a pleasure bowling with you.
Any tips he gave on mentality of bowling can be extended to all facets of life. Even trivial tasks. It’s a success mindset that many high level athletes ive seen always talk about.
Jason is a class act man. He has so much success he can do things like this with the people he competes against every week. I feel like something like this would never happen with the "previous" generation of bowlers. I would love if Netflix did a series on the tour, like Drive to survive and Full Swing. Belmo! You got the connections to possibly make it happen!
Golly, he's just awesome. The sport of Bowling is HUGE right now. JUST HUGE. And Packy and the crew here at House and other channels, you're breathing HUGE life into this sport. This was just great to see. A GOAT with the next gen!
Jason is such a wealth of knowledge and I continue to have so much respect for him. But Packy, your answers to his questions show me how much this thing means to you even more than I already thought. I honestly think you are going to be unbelievably impactful to the game and people will remember you for it
That comment about oiling the lanes and the general public.... I get asked soo many times by the public, "How do you make it spin like that?" I tell them there is oil on the lanes and when it hits the end of the oil it grips and they are like, "there's oil?" It must happen in like 80% of first time conversations.
This is one of the best one on one's that Belmo has done. This gives fans a look inside his head and what motivates him. He is the guy you love and the guy you hate. He is the New York Yankees of bowling. Love that you did this and love that he shared his insight.
WOW…..what a video. One of your best. I haven’t bowled in 35 years, but after watching your channel for the last month, you’ve inspired me to get back into it. Signed up for league play starting in May. In the video you talk about trying to address the negativity around this sport, and your passion to change attitudes, well you keep posting my friend, attitudes WILL change, even get some old guy like me back to playing again. I’ll be sure and tell all my fellow leaguers about your channel, count on it, Keep it up!!
As much as I thoroughly enjoy all of the hijinx vids, ball reviews, and your tour vids, I think this is the best video you’ve done, Packy. Anyone can watch this and not only be inspired by what is said by both of you, but also can learn from it, regardless of style (I know I sure did and I’ve been bowling for 35 years). Very much appreciate that Belmo appeared here and always appreciate what you both do for the sport of bowling.
This is being like a master and student. Belmo must be proud knowing that he help Packy winning his first PBA tour. Packy was laser focus learning from the best. This was entertaining yet very educational. Love from Manila❤
How can you not like Jason? Would any other person at this level in their chosen sport be this accessible? The answer is no. Jason is a pleasure to listen to, because you can tell he is genuine. Great video guys. I really enjoyed this one a lot.
Bowling video are just that bowling video,but This was the most interesting video you ever made,getting to listen to Belmo talk bowling and his personality l wouldn’t expect anything less. This is what makes a great champion.
That tip about his swing is EXACTLY what I needed to hear. My laugh angle and swing has been all over the place recently and that's exactly the tip I needed
Crazy this was before the toc and he was talking about how he never gives up even if he’s in last place and literally a few weeks later he shows that in a major and wins! Wow and then you take his advice and go off and win your first time a few weeks after that! Awesome video congrats to you both!!
This video is one of the best you've ever done. Even if you're not a Belmo fan you have got to respect his love for the sport. Thank you so much. This was great.
I have always had a true respect for Jason, but seeing recent things -- this video with the way he teaches, the way he stood up for Breanna Clemmer on FB, his physical game, and the positivity -- I admit, being left handed, I am not ready to say he's the GOAT yet, but I say YET -- he's got some more winning to do, to beat guys like Norm, Earl, Walter Ray, Pete...but man, he's quickly joining the ranks. And this video has me respecting him even more. I love getting to learn Packy's game and his mannerisms, and just the positivity between the two...amazing. I have my PBA card, and am bowling PTQ's and regionals, and hope to the grace of God I can get to be nearly as good as these two guys.
It's Packy, automatic thumbs up. The thing that makes mental blocks so challenging and irritating is that you know how to perform a skill… You know you have the ability to perform the skill and… You know you have successfully performed the skill in the past. When athletes face a mental block, the common response is to figure it out… tinker with technique, over-work, over-analyze and overthink, which just serve to embed the mental block further into the mind of the athlete. Instead of trying to FIGURE THINGS OUT, just trust in your abilities and your training. After all, you successfully performed these skills in the past, so get out of your head and let your body perform like you trained it. Mental strategies can not only help you break through blocks but also strengthen your mental game, preventing some mental blocks from popping up in the future.
Honestly this may be one of my favorite RUclips videos I've ever watched. Talk about an absolutely wonderful, down to earth HUMAN BEING. As I've never met Belmo personally I really do hope that he's that way all the time. I'm 99.9% sure he probably is. Thank you Packy and thanks Belmo for doing the video with you!
This is literally my dream in a youtube video. Packy, you are blessed young man. Keep up the great content. Jason, love your mental maturity. I believe its part of why you're the greatest. Its our pleasure to be able to live through and witness greatness. Thank you both!
This is the best video of Belmo I have seen. You were able to get him to open up like no one else has done. It actually felt like wisdom being passed from one generation to the next. Completely amazing. And the humor was real, and felt natural between the two of you. Great vid. I now want to be a better bowler frame by frame.
8:15 - "Idear" is 100% Aussie. This is the best piece on bowling that I ever saw. Awesome rapport between Belmo and Packy. Thanks Packy - when you said "Was it was worth it?" was straight from the heart bruh. Roar around the countryside this fall. Good luck.
Always loved bowling. I remember starting in high school too. had ZERO experience bowling competitive. Learned to hook with a house ball in a few weeks. I saw Osku on tv once and I immediately wanted to bowl like him...then I saw Belmo, and I was hooked. I learned to bowl two handed by watching them on tv. 14 years later I still learn from them...among other 2 handed bowlers now. I still feel rough around the edges...but as someone who is 100% self taught, I'm happy with my progress. With that said, I've learned more in this video than I have in the 14 years I've been bowling. People have told me "28 is a bit old to try to work on going pro" and it's been getting to me. But this video definitely gave me a fire back that I havent had in a while. Thanks to Belmo for doing this, and thanks to Packy for making this happen. Honestly thanks to all the guys on youtube and the tour. Can't say I'll see you on tour, but my name will definitely pop up as a PBA pro, that's the goal.
I never was a huge fan of Belmo as I am usually a fan of the underdog but this video has made me respect him so much. He's a wonderful teacher and truly an inspiration
Damn Champ that was special. Can proudly say I'm in the camp of not caring how someone throws a ball as it's legal equipment and he stays behind the foul line. It was the 2014 TOC at Thunderbowl when I realized how great Jason was. The stepladder guys were exempt from the proam and he was the only one that showed up. Didn't bowl but walked from one end of the house to the other signed autographs, posed for pics. He's great for this sport and so are you. It will be 50 years this fall from my first adult league and I love the modern game.
I've been watching bowling videos for years and you, Darren Tang, and Kyle/Brad have created some great content but this might be the best bowling video I have ever seen. I truly enjoyed this. Thank you so much for sharing!
This is an excellent video Packy! My wife even sat and watched writing down some of the quotes, processes and methods you both mentioned. Very well done.
Packy I have been watching your channel since day one. That's one of the finest there was done. Not only great tips but his view on life and bowling was great he needs to write a book
Without a doubt my favorite video. Genuine guy with incredible insight about the game of bowling. Literally Belmo changed the game. My biggest complaint about bowling is the lack of knowledge by the public about how hard it is and the grind that you guys go through weekly. You don’t get paid enough and respected as athletes. I’d like a movie or series made about the “The Grind” and behind the scenes. That is why I subscribe to your channel. Mad respect about how hard it is to be a pro bowler. Keep up the good work and congratulations on your title.
Jase, Sammy, and George .... all great guys from down under. I find it amazing that all those guys use to follow my youtube channel back in 2008.. and Packy.. say his name... it's Chris Forry
Wow! This video is by far the best video I ever watched! It’s a journey in the bowling world, in the mental game! You both ask and answer to questions in a simple but very deep way: so genuine insight! I apologise for my english, but I have to be part of this video because what we all witness is so unique! Respect! Thanks Packy, thanks Jason and a big shout out to Keven for making this video! Who knows if Jason’s t-shirt will be shipped oversee… 😅
Not a Storm Bowler or a two handed fan. I absolutely loved this video! I feel like everyone over the years of the PBA tour has tried to discredit Belmo. However, I can tell he doesn’t care and just focuses on the game at hand. I just learned a lot from Belmo and we are worlds apart on bowling.
Honestly might be my favorite video of all time, not just because belmo was on it but to hear what both of your thought processes are in situations would love to see stuff like this with other pros
Loved this collaboration with Belmo…..not only is he the most humble person alive but has a great sense of humor and IS one of the greatest! The sport of bowling needs more people like you to keep it strong! I am from the Detroit area and it is huge in this area! This sport is absolutely amazing and it is the professionals like you all that will keep it strong and going! Congrats to both of you on your wins and being great ambassadors to this amazing sport!
I absolutely know this is the very best bowling video I’ve ever seen! I really enjoyed the relaxed truthfulness of the conversation. My two favorite bowlers and people.
Jason expresses himself extremely well. He seems to convey his thoughts and ideas in a selfless and objective way, which is quite refreshing indeed. Someone willing to share his knowledge while at the height of his own success. That's not seen much nowadays... in todays money-grab/selfish sporting world.
I would say this is by far the best video I’ve ever watched Jason Bellmonte is such a positive individual. I would love to meet him personally, and the advices I’m hearing is very positive I always had trouble pressuring myself when it comes to bowling but hearing this really made me feel a lot better.❤❤❤❤
So... This right here... Wow... Seriously the greatest content I've watched in a very long time.. I'm in aww just watching in, can't imagine what it was like being there. Wow. Just wow! Packy thank you. Thank you for being the person you are, the ambassador you are and genuinely one if the coolest, down to earth there is ...
This is an amazing video. What a great insight of belmo. I kind of understood his sacrifice with his family, but this really opened my eyes. This man is fabulous inside and out. Packy, you have a great career ahead of you and many more tournaments to win🏆.
I have been watching this channel for at least a year and this is the best video I have seen. I love the conversation between Packy and Belmo and I love the advice he is providing. And Congratulations to Packy on your first PBA title!
Amazing content! The lessons, the nonchalant conversation while bowling, the respect, the willingness to share personal and vulnerable information, all of it! Let’s not forget, after this was filmed, the title for Belmo, and the break through title for Packy👏👏👏👏
I was at a Pro-Am tournament when one of my friends was bowling it at Fountain Bowl many years ago. Belmo was one of the hot up and coming bowlers. I was seated near Carmen Salvino and he was kind enough to talking about bowling and the bowlers. He told about this young bowler to watch as a future star and he was referring to Belmo who was not Belmo yet but called Jason Belmonte. He has since become bowling icon and great he is now willing to share some of his wisdom about bowling.
I agree with you Jason about educating the public. I was travelling and called up a lane to make a booking and asked about the condition of the lanes, the girl that took the booking didn't even know that lanes have oil on them.
In absolute awe of this video. An incredible example of how great minds work and what is achievable. Thank you Packy and Belmo for sharing a part of yourselves. It's inspiring and should inspire others to find their passion in life that can motivate them to achieve greatness in their fields. Fantastic interview Packy, please do more of these! Oh, and send that shirt my way ;).
I'm no fan of Belmo & some of his answers affirm my opinions, but I'm not afraid to give credit where it is due. This was a very cool interview & kudos to Belmo for doing it. I love that he finally gave Packy that tip, as well as some insight into his perspective of the game itself. I'd love to see more one-on-one interview practice sessions with some of the other guys, especially the veterans like Tom Hess, Wes Mallot, & PB3. They have some amazing stories to tell. Packy, what a great job you are doing with this channel & on the lanes. Whether you realize it or not, you are already making a positive impact for our sport! 👏🏼🎳👏🏼
This was so so so so good. Best video about the mental side of bowling (and a bit about life) that I've seen in a very long time. We are very lucky to have been a witness to this footage. Great job, Packy and Belmo! Truly appreciate the genuine insight into the life of elite PBA bowlers.
This is a great video. I especially liked Belmo's insight about educating the public. I don't think I've ever seen a "Bowling: The Basics" flyer in a bowling alley, let alone a "Bowling: Tips to bowl better" or "Bowling: How to buy a bowling ball" flyer. All those screens playing music videos and showing silly videos, but nothing about oil, oil patterns, how to hook, why to hook, the best way(s) to hold the ball, how to aim, ball weights, ball layout, why you might want a ball of your own. So many people bowl casually for birthday parties, work dos, etc. who walk out no more informed than when they walk in. I've learned more about bowling watching The House for a couple of months than I learned in decades of casual visits to the lanes.
I’ve watched most of your videos pack and enjoy a lot of them but the format, honesty and simplicity of this video is amazing, by far the best video you have made.
i really liked this video! Maybe more down to earth than usual? Good questions and interesting conversations with Belmo! Also Packy your so comfortable in the vids and that seems to draw me in! I enjoy the different content you have been making!
One thing I was really glad to see, was their ball speeds! I thought I was throwing it slower than the pros. Turns out its almost the exact same speed! Only been bowling (seriously) a few months. Just averaged 180 last night and it feels pretty good!
Belmo reminds me of Tiger. Tiger thought he could win every tournament and tried his hardest on every shot. His quote, “you can’t win a tourney on Thursday but you can lose it on Thursday.” That is you grind on every shot. That’s why they’re the greats.
Belmo is so insightful in the world of competition. So many answers to questions you may have never thought to ask. Great perspective. Great video packy!!! Definitely learned a lot.
It is so awesome to see Jason be more available to give us a look into how he works. Amazing discussion and would love to see more of these types of videos. I understand this one was personal to you, but having sit downs with any of your competitors would be awesome
I truly loved watching this video! It was like being a fly on the wall as two bowlers spoke passionately about the sport they love. Thank you to both of you.
As an Aussie, I feel Belmo has an incredibly strong mentality when it comes to his game, I started bowling around 10-11 months ago and am around 160-170 average. Hearing him answer some of these questions has been really insightful for me as I am also a 2h lefty like Packy, I bowl in a league where I have had people talk about me being both lefty and 2 handed so it was nice to hear him basically tell us what I already thought. I love Belmo and Packy, you guys should collab more! Would love that signed shirt btw haha seeing Belmo got me bowling 2 handed and Packy was someone I could mirror movement from which helped develop my 2h throws alot. Shout out to Dtang channel also for his information given about what to look for on the lanes. A combo of all three of these guys is 100% why my game has come so far in such a short span! Cheers lads, keep the amazing content coming!!!
As an avid bowling fan and of both of these fantastic bowlers this has to be one of the best bowling related videos I have ever seen! Great content and thank you for all of the amazing insight! Truly from the heart from both and it doesn't get any better than that!
This episode might be hands down the best one yet. Seriously such a good video. Belmo is such a genuine guy. Great video Packy! And congrats on winning Kokomo!
This was the best bowling video I’ve ever watched. I really really loved this video. I learned a ton, I felt so emotionally involved. This was real. This was deep. I’ve grown watching this. Please tell Jason thank you too
I'm 23 minutes into this video and there is so much wisdom and knowledge coming that I'm impressed there is another 32 minutes to go. Packy you have come a long way since I cheered you on while you bowled your first 800 and 300 at Nutmeg years ago. Congrats on your first title and we are always rooting for you in CT!
That first piece of advice he gave on the short and long term was spot on. Every night in league I told myself "tonight I'm bowling 600 or better" and I focused on my series...and sometimes my lucky socks did me well...and sometimes I fell way short. However, when I started thinking "I'm going to finish the month at 600+"....I started seeing a smooth curve for the next 24 games (2 league nights a week). I stopped seeing these zig zags and started seeing curves. Practice helped....but not stressing about the night literally got myself out of my head.
I realize Belmo was giving you life advice about bowling but that dug deep with me. God bless him. It’s extremely cool you got to have a 1-on-1 with him.
Thank you Packy for sharing a video like this for all of us to learn more about Belmo, and get some great insight on the game of bowling from two winning pros. Congratulations on the 1st of many wins in your career, and again thank you for sharing the game.
This may be one of my most favorite videos you've posted Packy. Not because of Belmo, just as a fellow roller here in Kansas trying to get better. Hope I can make an event and watch y'all in person some day!
A great interview with Jason! And you learned something. As I'm getting older, I'm not as good as bowler but because of you, I enjoy watching bowling and your humor and now my grandson because of that, loves to bowl! Chris
As a bowler who keeps striving to get better, this really was eye opening. Im a 220-225 avg bowler, and I'm always looking for that next puzzle piece as you said to move ahead. I've been a bit stuck though. I really need to get some outside feedback though to improve my game further. But the stuff Belmo said about respecting each shot is invaluable information. I loved his thoughts about breaking down your approach (before the foul line) and then what is happening after the foul line. This is such an amazing video. Thanks Packy and Belmo!
I don’t normally comment but this has been my hands down favorite video you have made. The reflection, personal insights, and banter were riveting. Thank you Packy and congratulations on your fist win.
I agree
Could not agree more
100% agree
Couldn't have said it better!!
Belmo in teaching mode is 100% pure gold. Those "3 points" are going to be forever locked in my mind now
This really does help me understand how Belmo keeps going. He just doesn't give up, he works super hard and he finds his way back.
Meeting Packy let alone Belmo is bucket list
I got to do it in jax 60 this year and they was both so nice packy even came back after bowling and shook my hand and said it was a pleasure bowling with you.
Any tips he gave on mentality of bowling can be extended to all facets of life. Even trivial tasks. It’s a success mindset that many high level athletes ive seen always talk about.

Jason is such a wealth of knowledge and I continue to have so much respect for him. But Packy, your answers to his questions show me how much this thing means to you even more than I already thought. I honestly think you are going to be unbelievably impactful to the game and people will remember you for it
That comment about oiling the lanes and the general public.... I get asked soo many times by the public, "How do you make it spin like that?" I tell them there is oil on the lanes and when it hits the end of the oil it grips and they are like, "there's oil?" It must happen in like 80% of first time conversations.
No way that video was an hour long! That flew by so fast! Great video, Packy, and thanks to Belmo for joining in.
This is one of the best one on one's that Belmo has done. This gives fans a look inside his head and what motivates him. He is the guy you love and the guy you hate. He is the New York Yankees of bowling. Love that you did this and love that he shared his insight.
I bet you Jason's going to be a great teacher
Is going to be or is?
Already is. He is point on, and his knowledge is amazing!
I got this comment to 69 likes no one else like it now
WOW…..what a video. One of your best. I haven’t bowled in 35 years, but after watching your channel for the last month, you’ve inspired me to get back into it.

Truly exceptional gentleman.

Maybe filming this right before reminded him to follow his own advice and gave him the focus to win. How sick
This video is one of the best you've ever done. Even if you're not a Belmo fan you have got to respect his love for the sport. Thank you so much. This was great.

Certified classic, people are going to rewatch this for years to come
Jason belmonte is just so humble about what he does its so hard to do but he make it look so easy great video patrick !
It's Packy, automatic thumbs up.

Ok... RIGHT in the middle of the Tip... RUclips throws in a commercial for me! 🤣😂
Packy I have been watching your channel since day one. That's one of the finest there was done. Not only great tips but his view on life and bowling was great he needs to write a book
i love jason belmonte, so down to earth and humble
This is one of my favorite bowling videos in recent memory. Great questions from both and honest answers. Bravo fellas!!
Without a doubt my favorite video. Genuine guy with incredible insight about the game of bowling. Literally Belmo changed the game.

Not a Storm Bowler or a two handed fan. I absolutely loved this video! I feel like everyone over the years of the PBA tour has tried to discredit Belmo. However, I can tell he doesn’t care and just focuses on the game at hand. I just learned a lot from Belmo and we are worlds apart on bowling.
I’m 61 years old and have been bowling for over 40 years. This was/is the BEST talk on bowling I have ever seen.
Thank you.
Honestly might be my favorite video of all time, not just because belmo was on it but to hear what both of your thought processes are in situations would love to see stuff like this with other pros
This is a nice video. The mind set of treating each frame with respect is a tip that can be applied to anything you do in life.
Loved this collaboration with Belmo…..not only is he the most humble person alive but has a great sense of humor and IS one of the greatest! The sport of bowling needs more people like you to keep it strong! I am from the Detroit area and it is huge in this area! This sport is absolutely amazing and it is the professionals like you all that will keep it strong and going! Congrats to both of you on your wins and being great ambassadors to this amazing sport!
I absolutely know this is the very best bowling video I’ve ever seen!
I really enjoyed the relaxed truthfulness of the conversation.
My two favorite bowlers and people.
Jason expresses himself extremely well. He seems to convey his thoughts and ideas in a selfless and objective way, which is quite refreshing indeed. Someone willing to share his knowledge while at the height of his own success. That's not seen much nowadays... in todays money-grab/selfish sporting world.
Packy, this is the best interview of all time. Thank you Packy and Belmo!
I would say this is by far the best video I’ve ever watched Jason Bellmonte is such a positive individual. I would love to meet him personally, and the advices I’m hearing is very positive I always had trouble pressuring myself when it comes to bowling but hearing this really made me feel a lot better.❤❤❤❤
So... This right here... Wow... Seriously the greatest content I've watched in a very long time.. I'm in aww just watching in, can't imagine what it was like being there. Wow. Just wow! Packy thank you. Thank you for being the person you are, the ambassador you are and genuinely one if the coolest, down to earth there is ...
This is an amazing video. What a great insight of belmo. I kind of understood his sacrifice with his family, but this really opened my eyes. This man is fabulous inside and out. Packy, you have a great career ahead of you and many more tournaments to win🏆.
I have been watching this channel for at least a year and this is the best video I have seen. I love the conversation between Packy and Belmo and I love the advice he is providing. And Congratulations to Packy on your first PBA title!
Amazing content! The lessons, the nonchalant conversation while bowling, the respect, the willingness to share personal and vulnerable information, all of it!
Let’s not forget, after this was filmed, the title for Belmo, and the break through title for Packy👏👏👏👏
I was at a Pro-Am tournament when one of my friends was bowling it at Fountain Bowl many years ago. Belmo was one of the hot up and coming bowlers. I was seated near Carmen Salvino and he was kind enough to talking about bowling and the bowlers. He told about this young bowler to watch as a future star and he was referring to Belmo who was not Belmo yet but called Jason Belmonte. He has since become bowling icon and great he is now willing to share some of his wisdom about bowling.
I agree with you Jason about educating the public. I was travelling and called up a lane to make a booking and asked about the condition of the lanes, the girl that took the booking didn't even know that lanes have oil on them.
Oof 😅😂😂
Delightful to watch and listen to! Belmo is so smart, and intuitive, and just plain relatable. I’m now a House fan, whose also a Belmo fan.
This is great teaching. Belmo thinks about his game. Deeply. Everyone wins by listening and learning from him.
In absolute awe of this video. An incredible example of how great minds work and what is achievable. Thank you Packy and Belmo for sharing a part of yourselves. It's inspiring and should inspire others to find their passion in life that can motivate them to achieve greatness in their fields. Fantastic interview Packy, please do more of these! Oh, and send that shirt my way ;).
I'm no fan of Belmo & some of his answers affirm my opinions, but I'm not afraid to give credit where it is due. This was a very cool interview & kudos to Belmo for doing it. I love that he finally gave Packy that tip, as well as some insight into his perspective of the game itself. I'd love to see more one-on-one interview practice sessions with some of the other guys, especially the veterans like Tom Hess, Wes Mallot, & PB3. They have some amazing stories to tell.
Packy, what a great job you are doing with this channel & on the lanes. Whether you realize it or not, you are already making a positive impact for our sport! 👏🏼🎳👏🏼
I taught myself to throw 2 handed left handed. Just watching your videos. Helped me so much.
You can watch a 2 handed righty. Foot placement and lines not the same.
This was so so so so good. Best video about the mental side of bowling (and a bit about life) that I've seen in a very long time. We are very lucky to have been a witness to this footage. Great job, Packy and Belmo! Truly appreciate the genuine insight into the life of elite PBA bowlers.
This video was an absolute joy to watch. Multiple times I caught myself holding back tears. Jason is an international treasure.
This is a great video. I especially liked Belmo's insight about educating the public. I don't think I've ever seen a "Bowling: The Basics" flyer in a bowling alley, let alone a "Bowling: Tips to bowl better" or "Bowling: How to buy a bowling ball" flyer. All those screens playing music videos and showing silly videos, but nothing about oil, oil patterns, how to hook, why to hook, the best way(s) to hold the ball, how to aim, ball weights, ball layout, why you might want a ball of your own. So many people bowl casually for birthday parties, work dos, etc. who walk out no more informed than when they walk in. I've learned more about bowling watching The House for a couple of months than I learned in decades of casual visits to the lanes.
My goodness, the way he explains bowling is just music to the ears. There’s a reason Belmo is the goat, the dude just GETS it. Amazing video.
The best interview with belmo ever thanks packy
The BEST video/interview I've ever seen. Thank you Packy, and thank you Belmo. Absolutely awesome!!!
Thanks to both of you for such honest and full answers. The best hour of bowling I have seen in years.
Des, UK 😊
I’ve watched most of your videos pack and enjoy a lot of them but the format, honesty and simplicity of this video is amazing, by far the best video you have made.
i really liked this video! Maybe more down to earth than usual? Good questions and interesting conversations with Belmo! Also Packy your so comfortable in the vids and that seems to draw me in! I enjoy the different content you have been making!
One thing I was really glad to see, was their ball speeds! I thought I was throwing it slower than the pros. Turns out its almost the exact same speed! Only been bowling (seriously) a few months. Just averaged 180 last night and it feels pretty good!
Belmo reminds me of Tiger. Tiger thought he could win every tournament and tried his hardest on every shot. His quote, “you can’t win a tourney on Thursday but you can lose it on Thursday.” That is you grind on every shot. That’s why they’re the greats.
Jason is such a great dude! Lots of sage advice here.
Man what an honor to share this time with the GOAT. ❤
Belmo is so insightful in the world of competition. So many answers to questions you may have never thought to ask. Great perspective. Great video packy!!! Definitely learned a lot.
It is so awesome to see Jason be more available to give us a look into how he works. Amazing discussion and would love to see more of these types of videos. I understand this one was personal to you, but having sit downs with any of your competitors would be awesome
Exceptional interview. This by far is the best bowling interview I've ever seen in 40 years watching the sport. Great questions with great answers.
This was truly one of the best bowling videos I’ve ever watched. Thank you so much
I truly loved watching this video! It was like being a fly on the wall as two bowlers spoke passionately about the sport they love. Thank you to both of you.
As an Aussie, I feel Belmo has an incredibly strong mentality when it comes to his game, I started bowling around 10-11 months ago and am around 160-170 average. Hearing him answer some of these questions has been really insightful for me as I am also a 2h lefty like Packy, I bowl in a league where I have had people talk about me being both lefty and 2 handed so it was nice to hear him basically tell us what I already thought. I love Belmo and Packy, you guys should collab more! Would love that signed shirt btw haha seeing Belmo got me bowling 2 handed and Packy was someone I could mirror movement from which helped develop my 2h throws alot. Shout out to Dtang channel also for his information given about what to look for on the lanes. A combo of all three of these guys is 100% why my game has come so far in such a short span! Cheers lads, keep the amazing content coming!!!
Two class acts snd true ambassadors for the sport of bowling. This is without a doubt the best bowling video I’ve seen.
As an avid bowling fan and of both of these fantastic bowlers this has to be one of the best bowling related videos I have ever seen! Great content and thank you for all of the amazing insight! Truly from the heart from both and it doesn't get any better than that!
This episode might be hands down the best one yet. Seriously such a good video. Belmo is such a genuine guy. Great video Packy! And congrats on winning Kokomo!
Thanks and yes he is!
This was the best bowling video I’ve ever watched. I really really loved this video. I learned a ton, I felt so emotionally involved. This was real. This was deep. I’ve grown watching this. Please tell Jason thank you too
Bro this is gold for any bowler, two handed or one handed. Truly truly thank you bro
This is one of the best bowling videos out there for learning purposes, physical aspect and sport mentality
You guys are the best, two class acts. Love the channel and all the info you give us. Thank you!
I'm 23 minutes into this video and there is so much wisdom and knowledge coming that I'm impressed there is another 32 minutes to go.
Packy you have come a long way since I cheered you on while you bowled your first 800 and 300 at Nutmeg years ago. Congrats on your first title and we are always rooting for you in CT!
What an incredible interview/chat with Belmo. Really great insight. Thanks for all you guys do and taking the time to create all this great content.
One of the best House Bowling videos ever! Great to hear incite from one of the greatest. Well done Packy!
That first piece of advice he gave on the short and long term was spot on. Every night in league I told myself "tonight I'm bowling 600 or better" and I focused on my series...and sometimes my lucky socks did me well...and sometimes I fell way short. However, when I started thinking "I'm going to finish the month at 600+"....I started seeing a smooth curve for the next 24 games (2 league nights a week). I stopped seeing these zig zags and started seeing curves. Practice helped....but not stressing about the night literally got myself out of my head.
I realize Belmo was giving you life advice about bowling but that dug deep with me. God bless him. It’s extremely cool you got to have a 1-on-1 with him.
Thank you Packy for sharing a video like this for all of us to learn more about Belmo, and get some great insight on the game of bowling from two winning pros. Congratulations on the 1st of many wins in your career, and again thank you for sharing the game.
This may be one of my most favorite videos you've posted Packy. Not because of Belmo, just as a fellow roller here in Kansas trying to get better. Hope I can make an event and watch y'all in person some day!
A great interview with Jason! And you learned something. As I'm getting older, I'm not as good as bowler but because of you, I enjoy watching bowling and your humor and now my grandson because of that, loves to bowl! Chris
I just try to spread my love of the game!!
CLASS ACTS! Both of you are amazing! Keep up the great work!
As a bowler who keeps striving to get better, this really was eye opening. Im a 220-225 avg bowler, and I'm always looking for that next puzzle piece as you said to move ahead. I've been a bit stuck though. I really need to get some outside feedback though to improve my game further. But the stuff Belmo said about respecting each shot is invaluable information. I loved his thoughts about breaking down your approach (before the foul line) and then what is happening after the foul line. This is such an amazing video. Thanks Packy and Belmo!
Love Belmo, no doubt the GOAT and such a nice guy. Truly the best in way more than just his skill at the game.
19:44 Kid just appears in between packy and belmo . Super clean editing with the audio and clip . Super sweet and smooth
One of your best videos.....Thanks Jason. Learned alot from both of you to pass along when I coach the kids, and myself!
By far my favorite house video yet, awesome format. Two dude just bowling sharing industry secrets lol
