What is a no tap tourney?

You can make the ball curve like that? Wtf

Shane Gillis?

Congratulations on maintaining your goal average through the first 3rd of the Summer session. I can't recall if I said that my goal for the Summer was to average 210 or 215 (I posted it on one of your other videos). I'm currently averaging 215.58 after 4 weeks however. I don't really consider myself to be a TH-camr, but I posted a video on my channel of myself from last Friday night's league if you care to take a look. Anyway, I hope you continue to achieve your goal over the Summer. Take care.

Might help with different release

Is this AMF? Looks just like my local lane in Kissimmee FL

Nice bro🎉🎉

I genuinely want to know who thought this raspy atrocious ai voice should've been spread far and wide

Being able to improve your scoring is dependent upon the understanding of basic bowling fundamentals. Start the first step and pushaway together, the back swing will then be in timing with the right leg, allowing the swing height to increase. Start together and end together, makes the game so much easier.

Strike

Are you spinning it like a top?

Is that Shane Gillis?!?! You're a hell of a bowler Shaner.

Shane Gillis can bowl?

Just focus on making spares, you'll find a 500 series is easier when you make 90% of your makeable spares. Strikes are bonuses right now and you'll get more of them in time.

Find someone who can coach you on the fundamentals of the 4 step approach. Your late push away limits the height of the backswing as the ball is going backward as the body is going forward. Start together and finish together.

This is absolutely amazing!

I think you're selling yourself short with your average. You act as if you don't deserve to have a 191 average when in reality, you earned it. If you break it down, you only need one double and no opens to average 200. For every open you have, you basically need another double to make up for it. You strike enough that you can have an open or 2 and still average 190 or more. Once you're able to pick up your makeable spares at a higher percentage, you might be close to a 200 average bowler (on a house shot during league). I don't think your tournament average will be as high because it seems that you still need to figure out how to adjust to the lane transitioning, but I do think you're more of a solid bowler than you give yourself credit for.

Nice strike!

Yeah, ugly release from the hand.

Clean

Mine gets 15 min

That happpens in pba to 😂

Great game 1! Stayed in the pocket

No le veo gran éxito O admiración, A un deporte donde la bola De $250 dólares, Con martillo integrado por diseño Para el efecto, hace el 98 % del esfuerzo para lograr una chusa Recapitulen señores Este deporte está muy sobrevalorado

I really enjoy watching your league highlights. I also like the way you recap each game at the end. However, you often spoil what's going to happen in the upcoming games or spoil the final result before the games play out. I'm not sure if you realize that you do that. So far, my prediction of you averaging 180ish is correct. Keep it going.

Good arsenal I got a rhino and something else but I'm not in a league no longer they demolished the bowling alley but good to see we both got something similar cheers to summer league

how many leagues are you in now? I only bowl with one other person and hes been getting less and less interested in bowling but I feel like itd be weird for me to join a league as a solo

Nice! Older people that are curious and nice like that guy was is super wholesome!

You're off to an outstanding start. I wouldn't sweat that last game too much. As the lanes transition, the strikes will get away from you unless you make some kind of adjustment. You throw your ball consistently enough and with low enough revs that you will get to the point that you're nailing the 10 pin at least 80% of the time once you get lined up. I stared Friday night summer league last week. My series scratch score was 659. My goal in that league is to finish with an average of 210 or better. So far, so good for the both of us.

Nice

Great series! I like how you had 418 after 2 games and was like, "That's about average..." You're going to end up getting your 10 pins more consistently. I'm still predicting that you will average in the 180's over the Summer. I really like the way you recap everything. You and Darren Tang are the 2 channels with league videos that I enjoy watching most, and he's a professional bowler with a dedicated camera man/editor. In other words, I think you're doing a great job with your highlights. I hope you end up with 10s of thousands of subscribers eventually. I'll definitely continue to follow your journey. My goal is to finish the Summer session with a 210 average myself. I'll periodically let you know how that's going.

O.K. Let’s see you spare the 7 - 10 split.

Best of luck to you all! Great footage there. Lot's of talent on them lanes!

Best of luck guys! Great footage. Lots of talent on them lanes!

the 3-4-6-7-10 is not the greek church and is light years easier to convert than an actual greek church (4-6-7-9-10 for right handers). Not taking anything away from the conversions, those are crowd pleasers for sure.

Good work keep working on the arm swing

Funny enough youve become one of my favorite bowling content creators. I thoroughly enjoy seeing your progress as we are the same skill level. Its also really nice seeing content quite often! Keep up the good work!

The Greek Church is the 4, 6, 7, 9 & 10 pins (or the 4, 6, 7, 8 & 10 pins for lefties). You had the Greek Church in the second frame of game 3. Your teammates did not have the Greek Church. Both of their spares that you said were the Greek Church was actually the 3, 4, 6, 7, 10. You struggled with lane transition. Because there were more people on your lanes with high rev rates than you usually have in your leagues, the oil pattern changed much more than it does when you're bowling in your leagues. That's why as the match went own, you were getting less strikes. You're a decent recreational bowler right now. Work on the things that you stated you need to work on (picking up most of your makable spares & making the correct adjustments when you aren't getting flush to the pocket) and you'll be a pretty decent bowler period. Good luck on your journey to get better.

🤦‍♂️

Like if he one, tried to have an actual backswing, two an actual slide, three an actual follow through, four consistency, this wouldn’t happen as much.

That’s not a washout. And neither of those are bad breaks. They were bad shots lol.

Congratulations on the 25 pin average improvement. That's a huge jump. However, this video's performance is probably more indicative of what your average will be going forward (with the addition of a plastic ball). I suspect that will average 180ish over the summer, which is outstanding for someone that averaged 139 not too long ago. If I were to offer any advice, it would be that you probably don't need a right & left side spare ball because you can easily make the left side spares with your strike ball. However, continue doing what's comfortable and works for you. Ideally you should shoot straight at almost all of your spares, but if you're only playing on a house pattern it really isn't that big of a deal to hook at the left side. Finally, I just want to say that recognize how much time and effort it takes to edit these videos. You're doing an excellent job. I have a few videos of my league nights on my channel and I don't put in or care to put in nearly as much production into editing them as you do. I basically only use my videos to critique my own form and figure out what I can do to improve (which has helped me a lot with my form). I look forward to following your journey over the summer and finding out if my prediction of you averaging 180ish is about right. Take care.

I've been bowling since I was a child, and I've never seen this type of release. But hey if it works keep it up bud!

underrated. keep it up

Congrats on picking up some of the 10 pins. Too bad that you didn't strike as much as some of your previous nights. Once you put a night together where you strike a lot and make most of your single pin spares, you'll set some personal bests. I'm looking forward to the Summer session. My goal is to finish the upcoming session with an average of at least 210.

lol better than me.

That form tho. You good?

Need to get you a plastic ball. Will make those spares on the right side loads easier. Especially the ten pin. If you can get a few more spares every games your average will shoot up.

I have to agree with Brad down below in the comments. You're in more need of coaching than wasting your money on new balls, your balls aren't the problem here, you are from what I've seen in this video. Now, on to what I'm seeing you do of course I don't know how much editing has been done so I can only go by what I'm seeing. First off, you're not taking the time to get yourself set on the approach and not getting focused in on your mark, take more time getting set and take more time focusing on your mark on the lane before starting your approach. In this video you seem to be rushing it, slow down and take the time to get set properly and then take the time to get focused in on your target on the lane, you'll feel it when it's time to go. You should inhale just before you start your approach and once you start you should be exhaling. Second thing I see, you're chicken winging it i.e., keeping your elbow bent and out throughout your swing. When you pushout with your ball your elbow should be straight, and the inside of your elbow should be as close to your body as possible without hitting your body throughout your swing. This is important your swing should be in line with your target on the lane throughout your swing. When you chicken wing it like you are you're going to find your ball either being inside of target or outside of target depending upon where you hand winds up. Third thing I see is you're not following through after you release the ball. Remember your ball is going to go wherever it is that your hand is pointing toward. If your hand is out to the right your ball 9 times out of 10 is going to be light in the pocket or even miss the pocket entirely as it is doing the majority of the time that I've seen in this video. Your hand should follow through and up after you've released the ball. Your eyes should remain on your target until after you've seen the ball go past your target. When done you should be able to tell yourself if you hit your target or how many boards you missed left or right of target. If you can't do that then you're taking your eyes off your target to soon and that's why you're missing it. Forth thing is when shooting those 10 pins you should be using a plastic ball and shooting straight at it by going cross lane, you should be moving about 3 to 4 boards left on your approach from where you normally stand and then throwing your ball over the middle arrow and straight at the 10 pin. You're trying to ride that rail and are either hooking it away or putting it in the gutter. If you don't have a plastic ball get one. They're all the same and you don't have to spend a ton of money on one. You can get a WD for around $69 or $79 and some change before taxes and drilling. I have the WD patriot ball red, white and blue with red and white finger grips and blue thumb. The WD's come in all kinds of colors and patterns pick one you like and go with it. Have your pro-shop help you out let them know what it's for and they should drill it straight up for you. Creating a routine and sticking to that routine and practicing it makes perfect. How often do you practice? Practice should include picking up different types of spares and not just throwing strikes. Learning to read oil patterns, learning how to read transition changes and lanes breaking down is very important and knowing what moves you need to make on the approach and lanes is very important as well as when to be making ball changes to improving one's game. Good luck, good bowling and you and your family have a good, safe and blessed rest of your day today and week as well as upcoming weekend.
