Packy and Kevin Thank you so much for making my sons day. He was the hockey kid. He went to a Jr gold qualifier tournament that next morning and earned a spot. It was his first try for it. Thanks again for being so nice and friendly. You for sure have a fan for life.
any chance you could do a bowling ball recommendation video? as a fellow two handed lefty it would be really interesting to hear your opinion on which balls you find useful for different scenarios and why. Keep it up with the great videos!
Lots of amateur vs pro comments. Think about the numbers - because the payout is significant for this tournament, someone could win this and actually make more money than some players make on tour in a given year. Take Brad Miller for example. He was 62nd on the points list, and his earnings from PBA tournaments was $1,850 for 2023. So yes, this tournament if for “amateurs” in that you don’t need a PBA card to bowl. These guys are trying to make a living bowling, so yes if there’s thousands of dollars on the line, you can expect them to be there
The PBA bowler Thompson JR, bowling next to you beat up MAXIMUM BOB Smith in a Tournament not too long ago, he's a GREAT bowler also. This was a tuff Tourney for you.
1/3/2024 - Happy New Year! I just watched this one again. Is there a follow-up video for the last part of this tournament? If so, can you reply with a link to it? Thanks.
Congratulations on your bowling so far and on the 2nd 300 game I've seen you bowl in the past week or so. I want to know how your ball can leave something like this one at 3:35 😮
I see a lot of comments complaining about Packy playing in an amateur tournament as a pro. I think the term Amateur is misleading, as it's really just an open tournament, meaning you don't need to be in the PBA to enter. Also, if the PBA had more tournaments, and paid larger prizes then the PBA pros wouldn't have to go searching for tournaments to make a few bucks. Unlike other sports these guys aren't pulling down millions a year. An NBA player gets paid per game what these PBA players get for a win on tour. So, maybe it's time to give Packy, and the other pros a little slack.
If the pro’s cannot make a living being a pro turn in your pro card. I get they don’t make the money as other sports being a professional but that’s the choice they make you shouldn’t be able to have your cake and eat it to.
@@prettynicefield1104 unlimited resources for equipment and having centers put out pretty much whatever pattern you want and can practice on a daily basis gives an unfair advantage to amateurs that don’t have what pros have. Pro’s need to either get better or get off tour if they need to bowl amateur tournaments
@@patrickj1628 am an amateur and a put the time and effort a need to be on that level and am far from having the best equipment just get up and go practice meaby it would help you to get better
@@KaienShibahe's probably referring to butters. People who don't understand bowling are upset about pba card holders bowling in big cash tournaments vs a hundred guys who happen to average 230 on those house conditions..
@@sonofnothinggotcha. Still, Butters is fine bowling because he’s with Greg Thompson. Again, the only rule for teams in the Holiday Doubles is both bowlers can’t be PBA national champions.
Holiday doubles has so many pros in the tournament that it is barely an amateur tournament. If anything the amateur is playing in a pro style tournament
@@dougblazer1376yes he identifies as an amateur woman so they have to let him bowl! lol it’s a handicap tournament so it’s as fair for the amateurs as it is for the pros.
As a Lefty, it hurts my soul to see Packy playing so deep on the lanes. My bowling brain is struggling to comprehend why he doesn't play a different angle from at least a little farther left.
My understanding is that only one of the players per team is allowed to have a pba card and hold a pba title. So think of it as pro am. It would be nice if it were all amateur but these tournaments are where the money is. Hell, I bowled a 10k league and you want to see pros…we had em.
I watched this live on Inside Bowling with Mike Flanagan so I'm not gonna say a word about what you found tomorrow under the Christmas Tree after the first game ;)
How can you compete in an amateur tournament as a pro who has won a tournament and taken cash? I am very ignorant to bowling rules, but every other sport I follow would not allow it
For the promotion of bowling the title probably should read open tournament or just tournament. To someone watching this that is new to the sport it is probably confusing and thinking wait why are you a “pro” and going against amateurs or even allowed to bowl in it.
I think you people are misconstruing what it means to be an "amatuer". These aren't mixed league scrubs were talking about.. They're 230 average scratch bowlers, whom most have competed in many a tournament, whom a few have won tournaments, whom a few may have regional titles, and have been around the block.. They are just as capable as a "pro" on these conditions, and the money is there for the taking.. Pay the entry fee, show up, bowl. None of these 'amateurs' are mad because Butters and Packy are bowling, they're looking at them as prey, just like the rest of the field.. The 'amateurs' have skills, confidence, and are there to win no matter what.
Packy you house guys should stick with other house people (who is Cameron? hes NOT a HOUSE person) Darren Tang is a HOUSE person! I've never seen Darren Tang bowl 2-0 something? Darren Tang is a 230 240 260 person
@TheHouseBowling how technical do you wa a get ? It's not an amateur event when professionals participate. That would make it a open field. It maybe the biggest over a weekend but USBC pays out more for doubles than the holiday doubles does BTW love the event and all the hard work Mike and the team put in. So in no way am I bashing the event.
This isn't an amateur tournament. It's open to everyone. He used the term amateur meaning a non-PBA event. Pete Weber, Liz Johnson, Kyle Troup, Andrew Anderson and many other pros bowled this event. It draws people from the entire country.
@jakeh5220 then he needs to change it as an open tournament instead of amateur tournament. It's all in the words that he is saying. So don't be coming at me because he said he's bowling in an amateur tournament.

It was great watching you during Qualifying and getting a picture with you and Madison! Good luck in future PBA events!!! Happy Holidays!
Thanks!’ Day 2 coming today at 4pm central!
Good bowling, but did you take advantage of that Turkey and cheese combo??

Dude, that was some of the nastiest messengers I've ever seen!
Crossing with the mighty GT2 I see... watch out!
Message delivered!
I bowled at st Clair in tournament for highschool about 2 weeks ago
Spotted a wild Williams right after the game 3 break. 😂
What a 300 game!!! hell yeah
the hoodie is 🔥🔥🔥
Great game!!
Yo what is with the guys heckling on your approach on your 12th shot for the 300? Sheesh...
Bro is a saint clair bowl I go the all the time.

for that open a pba or any players who got a regional title or higher cant play with an other title player

The purple reactive is underrated man i love my reactive i have the nu and purple urethane but i use the reactive most out of all three of those balls
Show some butters!!!
Nice finish.
Your so awesome bro!!!
I watched this whole Tourney on RUclips Inside Bowling channel. Great show! I was rooting for ya lefty! Next year!
also, it might be too much to ask but would love a live scoreboard for these vids!
I am new to competitive bowling, honest question how are two players who have won PBA events bowling in an "amateur" tournament?
Kam doesn’t have a national title. Only rule for the Holiday Doubles is no team can have two bowlers with national PBA titles.
@@KaienShibahe's probably referring to butters. People who don't understand bowling are upset about pba card holders bowling in big cash tournaments vs a hundred guys who happen to average 230 on those house conditions..

Hey Packy! I was there that friday the entire day and hung with ryan, spence, and a few others. What day were you there?
Post your shots Pack!!! Looks like your gonna fall down after most shots.
Just out of curiosity where's Mitch Hupe been? Haven't seen him on the channel in quite a while!
When a pro says he’s bowling a amateur tournament lol
Well when you do a sport for a living it’s hard not to go after the big payouts even if they are amateur tournaments. Big payouts attract big bowlers
I don't understand how you as a pro can bowl as an amateur. Is it like an identity thing?
@@dougblazer1376it means it’s not a PBA or PBA regional tournament.
Holiday doubles has so many pros in the tournament that it is barely an amateur tournament. If anything the amateur is playing in a pro style tournament
@@dougblazer1376yes he identifies as an amateur woman so they have to let him bowl! lol it’s a handicap tournament so it’s as fair for the amateurs as it is for the pros.
As a Lefty, it hurts my soul to see Packy playing so deep on the lanes. My bowling brain is struggling to comprehend why he doesn't play a different angle from at least a little farther left.
House shot
high rev rate
lower speed
Why fight the lanes? The shot for him deep inside with his Rev rate and speed. But, I understand, lefty aren't use to adjusting...lol
I didn't know Triple H (WWE) bowled (6 minute mark roughly).
no shot packy was in a tourney being held at the bowling alley i go to in my city
Super interesting to see how amateurs are against a pro.
I call the pins that fly from one side to the other to pick a pin up..... "The Laser"
I call the ones I get that miss, Girl Scouts. :)
My understanding is that only one of the players per team is allowed to have a pba card and hold a pba title. So think of it as pro am. It would be nice if it were all amateur but these tournaments are where the money is. Hell, I bowled a 10k league and you want to see pros…we had em.
Surprised to see butters there
Can someone explain to me why its called „amateur tournament“ if pro‘s can compete ?
When are you coming to uk to coach me please please!
I watched this live on Inside Bowling with Mike Flanagan so I'm not gonna say a word about what you found tomorrow under the Christmas Tree after the first game ;)
Lanes gotta be easy as hell looks like everybody shooting 250 or better 😮💨😮💨
It’s a house shot. If you can’t average 240 or better you don’t have a shot at the top 12.
Ok. I enjoy your videos. But. Have you ever seen a golf professional on any video wearing a ball cap at 90°?
Vintage hoodie😅
Turkey and Cheese
Kamron Doyle was a weird prospect. Had the world in his hands, and he always folded. Not sure what happened.
The AI stuff makes you kind of a skeerie stalker bowler. I like it. Now if we can get it to make you the terminator.....
How does amateur and $10K price work together lol?
How can you bowl a pba event and then go straight to an “amateur” tournament .
Why do pros bowl in amateur tournaments?
It's sad when pros bowl in amature tourneys to steal the money!! Stay in the PRO side!!!!!
Not much of an amateur event when pros attend
Not much of an amateur tournament if a pro is bowling
Those first bunch of games, what ball were you throwing? Looked a lot like a Rattler. Well done by the way.
He was throwing a purple solid reactive
Do you still use the Phaze 2 or have you Phazed it out?
He’s not on Storm staff and so he doesn’t throw Storm balls
@@steve5354 makes sense
How can you compete in an amateur tournament as a pro who has won a tournament and taken cash?
I am very ignorant to bowling rules, but every other sport I follow would not allow it
It depends on the rules of the tournament.
so why is it an amateur tournament if pros get to bowl it?
For the promotion of bowling the title probably should read open tournament or just tournament. To someone watching this that is new to the sport it is probably confusing and thinking wait why are you a “pro” and going against amateurs or even allowed to bowl in it.
When u get in your zone you don’t play
I think you people are misconstruing what it means to be an "amatuer". These aren't mixed league scrubs were talking about..

They let pros bowl in amateur tournaments?
Yea some of them have rules though like this one two pros cant work together!
@@TheHouseBowling Fair enough
Packy you house guys should stick with other house people (who is Cameron? hes NOT a HOUSE person) Darren Tang is a HOUSE person! I've never seen Darren Tang bowl 2-0 something? Darren Tang is a 230 240 260 person
why you bowling amateur tournaments bro?
He get no business in that tournament
I don't understand how pro bowlers get to bowl in an amateur tournament. Seems rather unfair.
Did you pay the taxes on that? Guess it was only 5k in reality.
Surrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre
Major clickbait title. How much more misleading can you be
It’s legit the biggest amateur tournament in terms of prize fund and scores!
240 doubles teams 😅
@TheHouseBowling how technical do you wa a get ? It's not an amateur event when professionals participate. That would make it a open field. It maybe the biggest over a weekend but USBC pays out more for doubles than the holiday doubles does
BTW love the event and all the hard work Mike and the team put in. So in no way am I bashing the event.

Pretty disgusting taking money from amature tourney.. Stay in your lane PRO BOWLER!!!
Bowling an amateur tourney as a pro is crazy😂
anybody know how a pro is allowed to bowl in an amateur tourney?? seems like it would be unfair to the amateurs.
i liked my own comment
TBL jerseys 🤢
your already Amateur so you fit right in cause you aint no PRO
Wtf you talking about? He has 2 PBA titles
