Before my son, my average was 218... I didn't get that good for not being able to do some very tricky shots with a ball.Hastur wrote: Mon Apr 12, 2021 7:35 amI knew when I posted this video that you would say this.The Conservative wrote: Mon Apr 12, 2021 5:16 amI've only done that once in my life, and it wasn't in comp, I was pissed... lol
I was trying to go pro, but yeah, needs before wants.
I've gotten the 7,4,6,10 split, I've gotten the 1,7,3, and a few others... the hardest is the 7-10 split...
Best game I ever had was a 289... strikes all the way down the line till the 10th frame. strike, 9 spare...
I prefer the viper oil pattern, but I will take what's given. I bowl about the same way this guy does except my ball goes down about all the way until the last three feet and slams into the lead pin.
He could do the same thing if he wanted to, but the reason the ball left late on him was that he didn't release the ball correctly, he didn't follow through, he was gripping the ball too much. If you watch the release he jerked it at the end (which is why you heard the pop). He was guiding the ball, it is why it did the snap at the end.
This normally isn't a bad thing, but it also leaves you very little room to actually fuck up with.

Re: The Bowling Thread
Storm Axiom is still the best ball I’ve ever thrown. 3 other guys I know have the Axiom Pearl and love it. This is the greatest ball in many years for the amateur bowler.

That first game was just silly between Jones and Moldonado.
