Damn dudes! NOICE!!
Thanks!!
Good bowling
Nice Bowling, simplifying the house shot is solid strategy for high series. Good job Alex
Nice Guys, Keep Posting!
Good job with bowling.
Thanks!
You guys will get it eventually, all it takes is a little luck-- skill just makes it come quicker 😄
Thanks for the confidence!
Keep do until u guys get
We will!
Withih the first few balls-- looks like some dry lane conditions! Nice
It was just after leagues that night. 5 bowlers per team, so they got lots of usage well before we shot this video!
I have both but havent drilled the effect as of yet
Thank you for your sharing
Not only u have problem. I had that problem too. Just keep practicing and try to find a good spot
I do have axe ball. It's good to watch u guys playing
More practices before fall season. That's what I am doing
Hope you get good next time
My wife has ball,she likes it. Her ball is 12lbs. I am thinking about order Low Flare Scorpion for myself
Are holes required for the ball to be legal?
No they are not, but if you do choose to use a non drilled ball you do have to have an X stamped where you hand would go. That way you are throwing the ball from the same hand location. If you do have a ball drilled, all holes must be in use to be legal.
@@DowntheLaneBowling ahh, ok 👍
Love the challenges
Thanks
Fun challenges
Thanks, we hope everyone enjoys them
Me too. Should do new challenge is use other arm to throw ball
@@dalewilliams6440 already have check it out
@@DowntheLaneBowling alright.
Just back into the game. Away approx 30 years. Purchased a 3.0 and still learning. It's a good ball. I watch everything related to a 3.0. Good video. No fluff. Thank you for posting
Thanks for the great comment!
Iam trying to but I can get pass 144
It's tough for sure!
I have both of these balls. The jackal is a hook monster compared to the 3.0. Motiv has been my go to for over the past year for bowling balls and I'll never look back
Slight Correction. Team event was a 4 person team not a 5 person team.
Oops!
The effect is way more capable than how your throwing it.

Idk what to think I feel as a 2 handed bowler effect would be better than the 3.0 but i was just worried of the core of the 13 would love for someone to give me some advice what would work best love your vids btw❤
Personally I like the Effect more. But it also suits my game with high end pearls. It is very strong and very flippy so keep that in mind if you decide to go that route. It all depends on what you're looking for in your ball reaction. We appreciate the question and love to hear that you enjoy what we are doing here. If you have any more questions we'll be happy to help in any way that we can.
Why put polish on the 3:0 when you have the effect as a polish version.
At the time i polished it i didnt have the 3.0. I also like the look of the polished 3.0 more than the dull surface
I had to polish my 3.0 as well.i couldn't keep it on the right side unless it was first game fresh.
@@Tnguy865vols yeah I use my 3.0 for a game and a half then I use my zig zag for the rest of the evening
What brand of ballu guys use
Jon uses Radical. Alex uses a Motiv Jackal and some Hammer
Did you polish the ball?
Not for this video, but in the video of the widow vs effect it was!
I bought 3.0..my bro bought Effect
Enjoy it
I kinda feel like I shoulda got effect for my play style but I got 3.0 instead so idk what to think getting it tmrw
@@Prprodz0 lets us know what you think after you get it!
When you film these videos your camera zoom is chopping off dudes head. You really need to be in the picture. Having his head off camera is very strange.
I know! The height difference between us is quite a difference. I'm trying to get more in frame in other videos. Work in progress!
@@DowntheLaneBowling I appreciate that not everyone is a professional content creator. I am just trying to offer some helpful suggestions so I can try to support your channel. I would suggest that you don't talk to the camera unless you are in the frame. It is very strange to hear you talking but your head isn't in the camera. I always try to help people when I can. You two seem like nice guys so I hope you have success with your channel.
Thanks for your input!
You can't wear a Radical jersey and demo Hammer ball. It's against the rules! Haha.
I was thinking the same thing editing it up. Lol
Except Hammer and Radicaal are owned by the same company so that makes it better.
Why are you playing so tight inside with both of those balls?
At the time we recorded this the bowling alley was close to closing and it was about 7 games into the night. The intention was not to play super tight with them but majority of the shots were pulled.
Like hammer boweling balls
Looks like that Jackel needs to come out of your bag. Maybe you should mess with the surface to get the ball to match your game better. Either way the Widow line is literally the most popular gear on the market. There must be a good reason for that.
Being he just bowled a 300 with it a couple weeks ago. I don't think the jackal going anywhere
What's your layout?
Great Question. I got it Drilled to a 40x4x40. My original thought was to have more overall hook from the ball than my normal layout. I do like how it reacts and hits. Even though its a 14 it stores a lot of evergy and packs quite a punch.
What's with this trend of random people starting a bowling channel?
What's wrong with that. Nothing wrong with trying to grow the sport!
Hammer is putting out a lot of great balls over the years. The widow line and the purple hammer are probably the most popular balls on the market.
Umm you both suck
Where are you at I can show you what to do
Traverse city, mi
Again sorry for the breaking up of sound!
Wow, can you actually bowl? That release is terrible.
I've bowled a 274 game before. This is my first full year of bowling. I've tried the normal way and I just can't get my hand to do the right thing. Maybe if I stayed with something lighter to get my arm and wrist to get muscle memory.
Comment something that actually helps rather than just negative criticism next time
@@DowntheLaneBowling Maybe invest in a good bowling coach? Or there are a ton of video's on youtube with things you can practice at home, its not hard to become a 200 avg bowler but next level up from that is very hard.
@@CalebFranke Perhaps it was just the angles of the video LOL
I've tried a coach. He coaches college players. He's the one that drilled my ball actually. He just laughs at my approach, but says it it works for you. If you watch on tour there are many different styles. The one thing that will improve my game is spares. I'm looking to get a spare ball soon. If I can just pick up my spares my average should take a jump. This is only my second ball I've owned. If you watch my son in law in the other videos you'll see someone who's been bowling since he was real young. He just got his first sanctioned 300 this year.
I've only had my Black Widow 3.0 drilled for about 10 days, and hadn't bowled much above my average with it, until yesterday, while practicing (so unknown lane oil condition). I bowled 4 games trying out three different balls, then decided to bowl 3 more, and I'm glad I did. The fifth game using my Black Widow 3.0 started with a strike, then a spare in the second frame, and all strikes the rest of the way, for a 280 game, which is a new personal best for me. What is even more exciting is that I started the next game with two strikes, which equaled 12 strikes in a row, so now I'm dreaming of getting my first 300 game some day! This Black Widow 3.0 will be the first ball out of my bag every league night, and as my technique improves, I'm sure I will see continued improvement. Not bad for a 68 year old guy who just started bowling again this season, after a 35+ year break.
Welcome back! It's a great ball once you get things figured out. Hope you keep on going!
Good video! I liked how you showed your spares. Almost nailed those splits in the beginning!
Thanks, we realize not everyone has spare balls in their bag. Sometimes you have to use what you got!
@@DowntheLaneBowling yep! That's what I've been doing
Ball really hooks great, I love mines
I want one please
They are nice!
Just wait til the Effect review coming out shortly!
good review ball looks good, also what are you using to record?
Just a gopro on a tripod
Help I throw 10-12 mph (1H w/ Thumb) and get strikes but when I up the speed I lose that hook. What should I do to improve
What ball do you use? How is it drilled? If it's not aggressive enough ball or the holes aren't drilled to make the ball hook more. I'd start there. After that there are a number of things
I use a Hammer 3-d offset. For how it’s drilled, I’ll have to ask the driller. (I just got into the sport this January and it’s been a hoot)
With more speed you need more revs on ball to grab the lane. Oil pattern also plays a factor. High speed is not always a must. We bowl with a guy that is around 12mph and has a 200 average.
How do u feel about the 14lb vs the 15?
So for me I have a mixed bag so I can make the transition between the 2 weights easier. The biggest thing about it is how im feeling. If i need more control at the release ill throw a 15. If im throwing the ball well and want more "power" behind the shot ill throw a 14, unless im getting a better shape out of a different ball.
It was definitely a crazy 300!
Congrats on your game tonight!
