- Some pros use this method to throw strikes when their part of the lane has become unplayable. What happens when I try throwing a backup ball for a full game?!
What will I score? Leave me a comment with your prediction!
Please subscribe, the goal is 26,500 by the end of the year and I need your help!

Hell of a game Nick!!! Perhaps left handed for an entire game, for the next challenge!!
You just proved that a high rev rate is not needed to strike consistently and shoot a respectable score. I think you have a backup future Nick.
Couldn't agree more!
High rev not necessary, but fun 😁
A lot of fun
I think you and The House Bowling need to do the Back-up challenge.
Nice vid. Also I bowl one handed backup as my style. Lots of people thinks its weird but it works!
Me too..😊😊
That's the funniest bowling video I've ever seen. When you started I was like what do I want to watch this for but then I started watching it and I was cracking up. Basically, the balls you through with a lot of speed are the ones that blew the pins off the back of the deck. Not bad.
"I am lined up! I am ready for a back-up ball tournament! Not Simo." 🤣 Bro lol
😂😂😂
Tim Cagle says, "hell, yes!"
Woooo that's my friend Amanda! She's a great person on and off the lanes! Love your videos Nick!!!
well done nick!
For the 6 or 10 pin I’ll throw a backup shot and most of time I’ll nail it. It’s my go to spare shot.
Just love watching you bowl. You always make me smile. Yyeeeeessssss!!!! ❤😂
That release looked so good. I can’t do backup cause everytime I try it I think I’m going to real my thumb and wrist going the other way 😅
This is literally how I bowl. Have one 300 so far bowling this way. Wish there videos out there on how to improve bowling backup lol
Might be in the future 👀
@@doglover74651 I hope so. Would be nice 🤞🏾
Me too. Not much info out here for backup bowling. I would like to know what’s the best ball to use.
@sharongriffin9566 the best ball is anything storm doesn't own 😂 lol
Great , fun video NIck, shows your talent and skilled lane play. Just what I needed to get my mind off Hurricane Nohe, passing South of The Big Island right now. Aloha NIck.
Stay safe!
@@brunsnick thank you
This made me smile.
Wow! .. nice Nick !! .. pretty darned good breaking 200 with backup ball. Nice!
I'd want to see a Simo x Brunsnick backup ball challenge. As one of the top bowlers of the PBA, I'd love to understand his logic and reasoning when he plays the left side.
Had NO idea whether or not you would be able to score with such a weak shot. But you did real well, Nick. I'd be shooting 70-80 with attempting a backup shot for the entire game
and that's only if I didn't hurt myself trying this. Yeah, I'd like to see a few videos on you competing with another bowler, both throwing backup balls. Normally, I'm around 195 with
an occasional adventure into the mid-600s. Have even had a few 700+ series recently. But I am nowhere near you as a bowler. But then, maybe at age 75 I don't have to be. lol
That was a fun vid Nick, now I'm inspired to try it too. That left gutter better watch out haha!!
Impressive. I was expecting 150 tops.
Cool video thanks for making it.
The first time I saw this style was watch Deo and I was amazed. So naturally I tried it and almost broke my finger.
@@newbloodink yikes!
Nick your Mesmerizing me with all your shots......lol
209 will be your score, my prediction after watching video, lol
Really liked this back up ball video
Another great video Nick Well at least you won’t have to worrie about a stone 8 😂LMAO
Welcome to my natural bowling style been bowling like it simce i was 13yo now 47yo its fun to loft the right gutter and get the ball to entre left side pocket do it all the time for fun but you did great for not natural for you and yes 7 oin is a pain to get spare helps you just let it skid into the pin
I think we are going to approach a time where most young pros are comfortable throwing backup. It's going to change the game. The percentages for left and right versions of spares might even out.
Awesome game Nick, now I’m encouraged to actually try working on getting my backup release better, i’m a 1 hander but so long as the NU Blue is my hands i should be fine🤣🤣
I went to the bowling alley yesterday and bowled my first practice game backup. I used my Hammer Effect that I've been using since the beginning of summer to shoot my left side spares with a backup ball. Yes I'm a lefty. My backup game yesterday was a 220.
Nice job!
Legit said 210 before the game started lol
I might try this….
I tried learning how to throw an effective back-up ball for those times in 'C' Squad PBA Regionals where the right side was just plain burned out, but the lefties were still scoring big. But I could never get a good hook or a consistent one. (Of course, this was more than 25 years ago where even the reactive balls of the time were nowhere near what they deliver today).
I'm impressed.
Wait!What? What is this backup ball thing?
Could you show some close up shots of how to throw it?
I ain't gonna lie your backup game is better than my regular game. Maybe I need this...???
I always feel like I’m showing off when I try the backup ball but that’s the only way I can pick up the pesky 10 pin lol
Nick, I thought + or - 180 and did Better than I thought. You should challenge Dasha to a Back Up Ball Challenge. Bowling is fun Paul Las Vegas
I tried doing this while hitting spares on the 9 and 10 pins and it really works.
If you ever end up in the Charlotte, NC area, I'd totally be down to meetup and do a backup game.
Exacerbate the situation with the backup ball senior carry
This is how i bowl my average is a 180 and my best game ever was a 275 in league last winter season using a radical rattler and then a ebonite singer hybrid
Can you tell me the best ball to use for backup bowlers please?
The left side is walled and channeled especially with a New York Phil drilling!
😂😂😂 Hey now.....
I throw a backup ball...and I absolutely detest the 7 pin...
Me too. It’s my worst pin that costs me a lot by missing it!!
Right handers wanting to throw from the left side... cool segment Nick. Welcome to the dark side. 😊
Would it roll more "normal" if you did a lefty layout?
I could get it to flare more with an appropriate layout based on my PAP. Then I could maybe get a stronger roll downlane.
Enjoyed that.
I will make my guess after I watch end of video, hahahaha
need to make a pucker shirt😛
Love this video. ❤
My guess was 211 after seeing the first two frames .
Paralyzer 10 Bay-B! 🎉
I really need to learn how to throw a backup ball without breaking my fingers. I definitely don't do it correctly.
I'm a backup bowler and bowle in the 200s
I’m impressed if that’s your actual first full game like that ! I tend the throw straight at the spares but when it’s a split I have a little backup in it fora little extra what you love lol pin action!
Saw a trip 6 in there using the backup ball! I wonder if the chicks dig that? 🙃
Chicks do in fact dig it 😂
^^^^ they def do
Wait until the no thumbers start drilling separate balls for each side of the lane!
What’s the secret to releasing the ball to back it up? I’m a right handed bowler and miss the 10 pin way too often. I thought if I could throw a backup ball towards it I might improve my stats on it. One thing I’m afraid of though is ruining my right handed release.
The trick is to get the thumb to the right side of the ball and rotate the finger from 6pm to 9pm.
@@brunsnick I will try it. Thank you.
So this is a subtle commentary on how the left is walled, isn't it??
Come to the house I bowl at in Twin Falls, Idaho....definitely NOT walled. 😂 Barely any friction outside of 5
Left side is easier.😄
hello! I am a low rev , low speed bowler who bowls backup with an ultimate defender. I average about 196. Do you think it would be worth it for me to switch to the mesmerize?
Both are strong bowling balls, so maybe if you were looking to replace the Ultimate Defender in your bag. Not sure it would be best to have both in the same bag especially being lower speed.
Do you need the ball to be drilled for a leftie to be consistent???
@@nicholauscurphey3925 it would help for sure! I could get more track flare and more consistent roll if I drilled it off of that PAP.
@@brunsnick 8 had the 2-8-10 split that I used a backup ball on and it worked out great!
I wanna learn to do this for my annoying 10 pins hook it into it
im 1 hand no thumb bowler
nice game. You sure you didn't practice first
i got a 218 back up game the other day
Say MEEE!! if you love bowling🎳
Do you think backup is easier with sarge easter
No not really. Way easier standard fingertip.
Left side is walled. 226
Ambi right handed bowlers can use left handed bowling balls for back up?
Yes but if it’s drilled for a lefty it probably won’t fit very well.
Great video content Man,I am 70 years old, there's a guy in our league throws back up ball, can you drill the ball to do this? I throw a backup every once in awhile and they laugh and I can make a strike. I just don't do it all the time. I have to really reverse my hand position my wrist trying not to tear it up. What do you think? Please respond. Thank you.
Sure you can drill a ball to roll better when throwing backup. It would basically be like laying out a ball for a lefty in my case.
@@brunsnick ok thanks 👍👍👍
Does Simo use a ball with a specific layout for backup balling. Cause if I throw a backup ball as a two hander, it either over hooks or it knuckleballs
Not sure.
Cool video talk tech bowling ball brunsnick
I bet the inside of nicks forearm was feeling a bit weird the next day
Nope wasn’t sore. Whew
@@brunsnick when I first started backup bowling, I would get a wicked pain in my forearm, would last for weeks, and only stay sore. I just backup bowled right through it regularly, 1 game a week or so, and now no pain, and I can now get on the back of the ball on tournament lanes and hit my straight spares.
You should try bowling two handed
I tried and filmed it. I suck at it.
Hey Nick how you doing I like your videos please tell me about your grip why is your ring finger hole different from your middle finger hole. Thanks I'm a subscriber
It’s the Sarge Easter grip, here’s a video explainer. th-cam.com/video/Ax8H7MisJms/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1cgH_YN8l4198NzG
Telling the last shot to hook cost you a 220!
Talk about being on the inside of the ball
You should be used to shooting at that split. 5:55
I won't able to do
173
maybe 180
Left is walled
My dad knows you
*Chuckles* really nice, Can you do it with a Urethane too would love to see that reaction
I warmed up a few shots with Purple Hammer but resin looked good.
