Butturff looks like he works at Footlocker.
Shared the lanes with Jakob a few times here in the Phoenix area. Nice kid. Congratulations Jakob.
I bowled league with Jakob last summer in Phoenix and when he finds his groove.. he doesn't miss afterwards. Was fun bowling with him and a couple other pro's while I was in Phoenix.
I love the camera angle from the back. You can see where the ball starts hooking. I hate that side shot they use of the ball spinning on the lane. You can't tell anything from that. Also Randy way better commentator than anyone else they got.
$10,000 first place money for a pba tour stop, absolutely disgusting. For years now there hasn't been any money in professional bowling. How do all of these guys stay on tour bowling? Do they eat Ramen noodles and sleep in their car?
Matthew Vega many room together. Many own pro shops. Many have other jobs.
Yes, it is sad. In the old days, bowling was more popular than baseball and players made more than any professional sport in the world.
In the days of rubber, at the 1969 San Jose Open, Johnny Gunther bowled a 300 game (Only the second in PBA history) and was rewarded with $10,000 and a new Cougar.
That's $67,000 by today's standards with a $30,000 car!
I think we can blame reactive balls for changing the game in a negative way.
The classic sense of the game was lost and it is no longer like it was.
Baseball remains baseball because innovation was not allowed, but bowling went high tech and now it is not looked at the same way.
Tennis survived innovation somehow though the game changed greatly, but bowling has not.
nordattack now I'm going to call bull*hit on reactive balls being the problem. I work at two bowling centers and over the past ten years attendance has dwindled considerably but recently there has been a large increase in youth bowlers. The huge hooking ball is getting people back into bowling.
Kind of like curling here in Canada. In a time of hype, celebrity and extravagance, bowling had an aging demographic (less interesting to advertisers and sponsors) and a staid, stodgy appearance.
Getting more appealing characters involved, innovations and especially controversy (equipment/grudges/rules) attracts a younger audience as well as participants. Making the game more exciting relies on close-ups of pins crashing and bowlers exulting or dismaying over their shots. Youth programs help but a charismatic (a la Tiger Woods in golf) available spokesperson can introduce the game to a lot more potential players.
I hope so, as I have taken up the game in retirement (I played occasionally as a teen-ager 50 years ago....) and find it a lot of fun, sociable and very demanding. These videos are a great source of entertainment and education.
Thanks so much!
can you explain to me what kind of innovations tennis has gone through since the 60s? i dont watch the sport but that sounds very interesting
Pretty cool to see Barnes/Belmonte in the background at 1:16:05 undoubtedly talking about the 2 young studs they are watching and how they were on the rise and really become a threat on tour with their abnormal styles.
Congrats to Jakob and Anthony for nice good games show...
the first and semi final matches were exciting and very close
I was hoping Tommy Jones would make it to the championship. Him and PDW have the best releases on tour.
That's ok Randy. I left 7 - 9 pins- in my 4 game league yesterday.....7!!!! and one was with the 10 next to it. 9 - 10. I bowl in probably the hardest house in the valley tho. Starlite lanes makes you earn it. Go anywhere else and you will average 15-20 pins higher. Its the truth. I bowl with a man who averaged 253 for 87 games at a center up north in Gresham, a solid 230 average bowler anywhere and hes averaging 218 at Starlite.
A solid 230 anywhere? Wow, he would top the annual PBA average list with that! But you don't mean anywhere, you mean anywhere where the lanes are blocked so that you can't miss the pocket. Time for bowling to get back to the days when you needed to hit a mark and make a good shot to get ten. This bumper bowling is just silly.
So when did Jakob switch to Columbia from 900 Global?
Jakob Butturff was in command to win the South Point Las Vegas Open

Can't wait to bowl at South Point... 😍😍😍 I'll get my turn, you just watch... #ABowlersDream
Well, did you bowl at southpoint yet? How did it go?
hard time getting a date? 50:30 whats that have to do w/ anything
UncleT0ny I think he was being sarcastic.
I didn't get it
Sorry Randy, wrong again. Urethane balls only create carry down if two things happen:
1. The ball has a "no flare" layout so the ball is rolling over the same oil ring over and over. (Not likely in today's game with modern cores)
2. The player does not wipe his ball off after every shot. (And you can see these guys wiping the shit out of their balls)
A high flaring ball of any non-absorbing material, urethane or plastic, does not roll over the same section of ball, so when the ball comes back you will see big oil rings on it.
It has taken oil "off" the lane.
Then when you wipe it off the oil is gone and does not return to the lane.
This is identical behavior to a reactive ball, the only difference is the reactive ball absorbs the majority of oil into itself and little is left to wipe off.
I have bowled with my Hammer Widow spare ball that has a high flare layout on the fresh and I was able to burn a track in the lane with it because it was taking so much oil off the lane.
Urethane creates no more carry down than reactive balls.
Your saying all your wrong ass facts to a bowling Hall of famer...
Get outta here
@@drummachine434 Face Palm...
I don't know how he twists his wrist like that. Congratulations!!!!!!!
Cedric Wright he is double jointed
Maybe i missed but it would be great to know on which oil patter they played .
munktorp It was Cheetah - 35ft. Randy mentions it at one point
Great thanks m8 !
munktorp cheetah
"... must feel like a one-legged man in a b-tt-kicking contest" Hahahaha
what ball is that Tommy jones was using
That would be the Tyrant by c300.
I'm wondering why Tommy didnt use urethane......the carry is phenomenal.
Idk how Jacob's career would have shaped out if he would have stayed with 900 global...proabaly about the same
I swear anthony got so freaken lucky with that strike in tenth frame. SMH.. that was not a well executed shot.. Would of loved to see svenson come back that game..
to the guys who thinks it's cool to act stupid on the lanes and then be nicer of the lanes they need to grow up life to sort start enjoying the game I'm sick of players been assholes on the lanes and then nice of you don't get that from Jason Belmonte that's why I love him randy is brilliant at his job leave him alone
That Jesper Svensson dude doesn't seem very sociable AT ALL!! I never see him say a word to other bowlers.
I think it's just the mode they get in for stepladder finals. Same as PDW may come over like an asshole, but off the lanes it's one of the nicest guys out there!
he's actually very nice in person! very sociable. but yeah, when he's bowling, he is quiet.
Pitch black rules! Long lives Urethane!
Pitch Black is not a true urethane ball. It is a very weak reactive ball.
The only companies making "Real Urethane" balls today are Hammer's new "Black Hammer" and Genesis Bowling's "The Judge LE."
go to storms website. its listed as urethane
They say it is urethane but it is not. In order to pour a urethane ball a special process is required. When Hammer reintroduced the "Black Hammer" they had to shut down their whole plant and clean out all the pouring machines to get rid of any residual resin before they could produce a "true urethane ball."
Only Hammer and Visionary Bowling are making real urethane balls today.
You can see those here:

nordattack it is a urethane
Sorry no. There is a whole forum on this subject of the Pitch Black not being a true urethane ball.
Here is what Joe Bowler said about it:
"It's not that the Pitch Black is a "bad" ball, just it's reaction is more like an entry level reactive, not what most folks expect from a urethane ball. Sanded and polished to the same grit (OOB for Pitch Black is 360/1000!), it is roughly equivalent to a Tropical Breeze."
Robert Harvey love work and I would have time everything is really good Lord of my favorite things to do that Robert Harvey love work and I would
Dem lanes tho
The two handed delivery is ruining the sport. Two 20 somethings in the finals should speak volumes.
