The cool thing about your channel is that you show other people's talent too. 90% Forest, which I really enjoy. 10% other people's talent and skill. Really awesome
I would love nothing more than to have the chance to see this man bowl at the high level. I would love the opportunity to see him bowl on tv and even possibly win a big tournament.
How cool this is to know you're from Stockton. I'm from Stockton as well. I do not reside there anymore, but I visit. Keep crushing those pins and remind yourself to have fun. We know you will be doing great things this year.
IQ78 is now my spare ball. It comes with me everywhere anyways so figured might as well save a spot in the bag for something other than breast cancer ball
Forrest you have excellent form! I can't believe just how smooth the ball comes off your hand bro. Judging by your posture after misses I think your mental game is holding you back just a bit. I know it's hard but you gotta stay positive.
As I've bowled more and more I have come to the conclusion that two handing isn't significantly better than one handing. I think that it's a lot easier to get hook from but at the highest levels the abilities of one vs two handers are not significant. Two handing is a great style to get more people into the sport but I truly believe that any style can compete at top level.
I have been bowling for 45 years and know that two handers have more power. That much power is hard to control and bowling respects accuracy as much as power. So at the very top level two handers are better than one handers. But a majority of two handers don't have the experience and leave hard spares so they are very beatable.
@@drwisdom1 Tell that to EJ Tackett, Kyle Sherman, Kevin McCune, and Jakob Butturff. While I agree that bowlers start out with more power, 1 handed bowlers can actually generate MORE revs than 2 handers.
@@drwisdom1 I would say it's the exact opposite. If you watch PBA matches, there are PLENTY of one handers who reach the same power, speed, rev rates, and everything that two handers do. I would say the more beginner level you are the more advantages you get as a two hander and the more advanced you are the less advantages you get. Pretty much every pro throws the ball around 16 mph and up with 450-600 revs. It doesn't matter if they use one or two hands, they mostly all fit in that area.
I’m dying to get the blackout as a compliment to my eternity pi. Do you recommend drilling the blackout to max hook potential, a little weaker, or somewhere in the middle ? For drilling I want it to just make the ball be the best it can be for what the ball offers, not really to target a specific shot or house. Let me know what you recommend please !!
Happy New Year, Forrest and Brittany !!! I like you showed the balls you're using. I liked seeing \the other bowlers showcased and they threw some great shots. Spotted Cagle - how can you not haha. Your form is strong.
Nice Bowling Forrest! I have been trying to find more tournaments to bowl in but havent been lucky finding any recently. Hope you and 220 and bowl again sometime!
Man this bowling alley looks exactly like mine here in Jacksonville N.C, from the Graphics to the ball returns and score monitors, and this if literally across the country lol, still you bowled well you will get it next tournament.
Always enjoy watching you bowl Forrest. Always so smooth. I mean a couple better carries and you probably would’ve been right there. It could’ve been worse. :)
For them later games a much bigger ball like the gem somthing big and solid from that deep and you’ll be money the weaker balls the iq and journey will just see the dry and over react in the backend !
Well it wasn't at the end, it was 2nd frame game 1 but as I reflected on the night yes still devastating! Strangely I shot identical 692 Series' back to back weeks. Don't think I had done that before.
Nice video Forrest! The last time I saw you in s video was when you were eating cheeseburgers with Darren. Keep grinding! Wishing you and your family a healthy and properous 2024!
During game 4, you went to that Journey. You tend to lean on the quick balls a lot i've noticed and not notice when you get trapped in the lanes not transitioned enough for those balls to be effective. It may be worth to work on seeing this and staying in more medium to medium quick balls. You lose the pocket going too quick too fast. Recognize the environment.
I got my butt kicked in this tournament, I kept making some horrible mistakes here lol. Always love watching your videos and glad to experience your skills in person too! keep up the great work man.
Hey Forrest!! Love watching your videos. If you want some tough tournament lanes, make the trek up to Longview Washington in June for the Northwest Masters. 12 games of brutality. Last year money cut was -140. Something you might like. If you are interested let me know.
Something else to mention as I watch your gold pin video. This house uses gold pins on the tournament finals as well. Since you seem to like those gold pins :)
Anything over a 200 is plus. Anything under 200 is minus. For example, if you bowl a 230, you are now +30. If you bowl a 190 next game, that is -10 so now your total score is +20. Hope that helps.
Tournaments that are this high scoring are not even worth it these days. Because anyone can buy a new ball, toss it towards the gutter and average 240 now so it mostly comes down to more luck carrying the pocket over quality repetitive shot making on these conditions
My guy, the shoulder has to drop to create enough spine tilt to get the swing to go under the head. Every guy on tour does this. All of them. His shoulders square up to his target exactly like they should.
The cool thing about your channel is that you show other people's talent too. 90% Forest, which I really enjoy. 10% other people's talent and skill. Really awesome
When you throw your ball just right, nobody is smoother than you. For 5 seconds, the world is perfect. 😊
Wow that’s such a nice thing to say. Thank you!
I would love nothing more than to have the chance to see this man bowl at the high level. I would love the opportunity to see him bowl on tv and even possibly win a big tournament.
Won’t happen. Not good enough to make it in regionals let alone the real best in the world
@@Notconceitedjustbetterthanyou have faith man
Man has one of the cleanest releases i've seen. So smooth and consistent. Keep up the great videos!
Thank you bro!😎
10:41 I've finally found the subconscious reason why a lot of young people bowl two hands. it's so they can dab after the release.
I definitely need to get involved in more out of town tourneys 🔥👏🏾💯

Stockton slapping them pins around!
What made you decide to start using the IQ78 for spares rather than your trusty Strikeout Breast Cancer plastic ball?
Might have been limited in how many balls he took.
IQ78 is now my spare ball. It comes with me everywhere anyways so figured might as well save a spot in the bag for something other than breast cancer ball
@@ForrestKritzer But...is it better or worse for spares?

@@ianhoneycutt3858 Dont forget Sean Rash. In fact, the highest rev player in my area is a one hander who throws 600 revs at 19 miles an hour.
Keep going! We will see something super special soon! I can feel it!
Nice video mate. Like others have said glad you show other styles as well

I’d get a ruby I’ve had the blackout for awhile and it kinda loses its touch
@@AOKBinary wym loses its touch
@@dantemack6323 it may be the lanes I bowl at but it doesn’t feel the same after first 10-20 games the oil soaks in it fast compared to the ruby imo

As soon as I saw the masking unit I thought the same thing. I was like, why does this look like bowlarena lanes? Its nearly identical
Damn watching you in slo mo makes me hurt lol, how does your right knee fold sideways so much without exploding 😂
I see my boy Dupree Dickey
I'm going to assume Bob Newman won the tournament, being so tall and all.
He did not 😔

Nice run ! Focus on the positives
So cool to see Bob Newman! Love his reviews too. Cool
I missed a 9 pin myself a couple weeks ago that cost me my 700. :(
Devastating🥲

Great bowling and great song choice

Absolute stud in 2013 and you still are. Great bowling but unfortunate breaks
Thank you Chipotle Lover😊
Keep it going no more single pin miss spares
Leaving the 9 pin with every ball in the arsenal?
Bowling.
Was there also. Hit 2 really bad pairs. 21&22 were the worst for me
2024 goal.... to throw the ball as good as Forrest Kritzer!!!
Stop making me blush😉
I’m still waiting for that autograph! 😘
Forrest did you bowl in the first PBA tournament this year?
My first PBA tournament will be in Arizona next weekend
Hey Forrest!! Love watching your videos. If you want some tough tournament lanes, make the trek up to Longview Washington in June for the Northwest Masters. 12 games of brutality. Last year money cut was -140. Something you might like. If you are interested let me know.
Hey thank you! I might have to check that out🤔
Something else to mention as I watch your gold pin video. This house uses gold pins on the tournament finals as well. Since you seem to like those gold pins :)
What does the +85 or under numbers based on? Plus/minus what?
Anything over a 200 is plus. Anything under 200 is minus. For example, if you bowl a 230, you are now +30. If you bowl a 190 next game, that is -10 so now your total score is +20. Hope that helps.
I know it’s not league night but I notice you change quiet a bit every tournament all you needed was that virtual energy and zen gold label
Today's bowling is a joke! Saw a lot of 9-pin leaves . . . too much ball. Two-handed is just making the task harder. And . . . plastic lanes SUCK!
In that 2nd game, did that guy end up rolling 300? He had the front 9.
He did not
Cool video talk tech bowling tournament Forrest
Big FK! What would u say is your most favorite/go to ball u have in your arsenal and why?? Looking for great ball suggestions (I'm a STORM man)
You can’t go wrong with a IQ Ruby! That ball goes everywhere with me. Very versatile Pearl
See some good Bay Area folks. nice

gotta represent? like the hood?
STOCK-TONE
I've noticed you get get a bit fast at the line, causing your shoulder to dip and then not square to the pins at release. Just an observation.
My guy, the shoulder has to drop to create enough spine tilt to get the swing to go under the head. Every guy on tour does this. All of them. His shoulders square up to his target exactly like they should.
@@Slimzyjoe Mikey Tang demonstrated that on his TV Bowling supply vid a couple mondays ago.
I did not see a single woman. Were there any? Great bowlers.
Nice video
Thank you😎
I been watching a lot of tournaments because Walter Ray has been posting them and it looks like literally every single tourny lanes are super easy.
For Gods sake comb your hair 🤣
Who you referring to?
Backup bowling 🤮
Still like to see the F@%k shirt.
🎳
Bowling
Jesus, is this a house shot?
“ modified house”…😐
