    Yo Keisuke here, just gotta say, those sport shot lanes humbled me 😂.
    As someone who bowled on sport shot for the first time, it was so frustrating throwing my usual shot because my usual shot would usually hook at the edge.
    Had a blast though and will definitely dedicate a lot of practice on sport shot. Thanks for having me!

      For me its the spare shooting on sport shot that freaks me out, you have to get on the back of the ball better. I average 227 on house shot in league, and probably closer to 205 on sport shot, you lose quite a few pins.

      Well, I will say Dick Weber pattern (depending on their average) probably wont humble them much if at all. But put them on the Billy Hardwick pattern and they will see instant regrets in their decision on not being prepared with ball surface, ball types, and proper aiming/release techniques.

    String pin the worst thing to ever happen in ten pin bowling

    • @edb3877
      @edb3877 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm thinking that string pin bowling is different from free pin bowling but that doesn't make it better or worse.
      Been bowling with string pins for 2 years now and have maintained my 195 average. Splits and washouts
      are a bit easier with the strings but strikes can be harder to always hit high flush. A light pocket hit very often
      leaves a 4-5-7 split. I can make those around 1/3 of the time. 5-7 split is a bit easier at about 1/2 makes.
      As to sport shots, they can be more difficult and cost around 20-25 pins from my usual house shot average.
      But I can adjust from a 20 board foot position to a 5-7 board foot position to compensate for the lower
      amount of hook.

      @stray534 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@HeyItsSloth it's not the score change that bothers me about it though, its the pin movement. It reacts differently on string pins than it does on free pins. In my experience it is alot easier to bowl string pin than it is free pin, where there is actually like a 20 pin gap in score. I would have messengers that should miss but don't because the string hits the 10 pin, and splits that I pick up more often now because of the strings. I just don't think there should have been a change, specifically because the string physically interferes with the game by hitting pins that should not be hit. I would also like your sources, if that statement is true because I have never seen that paper before.
      Edit: if you go to 9:10 and watch you see my point of strings hitting pins.

    Sport shot is indeed way different. I had no idea I was bowling on one at my first time until I noticed everything was reacting way too early and moving left just put me into too much soup. First game I think I had 120. I ended up switching to urethane second game for 215. I think that game was luck, I did not play super well but I'm still appreciative of the moment I got to have. Urethane = cheat code? Maybe. It made the pattern way easier I felt, I definitely had some miss room.

    bowled on my first sports pattern last year. was the dead mans curve pattern. All i knew was to keep in inside of 12, which is far from my normal shot going down 5-10 board. I did well for the first 3 games, struggled in the 4-6th, however somehow decided to throw a normal shot, it hit 5 board and hockey-sticked back. the pro's behind me couldn't believe it, so they tried... gutter.. gutter.. gutter for them lol final 2 games i had more confidence in knowing i could shoot wide, and scored a lot better

    Never bowled on a sport shot xD Bowling is the biggest difference in any sport from amateur to pros based on playing surface. It's so funny to me to see people think they can compete. It's not really even the same game. The oil dictates how you play and the transition and until you understand that, you will not compete. Ignorance is bliss and some people are very skillful without the knowledge but if you think you are good and you bowl on house patterns, i can confidently say, you don't understand bowling and will never compete on tour.

    Hi all! Let me show you how easy it is to know how to go to heaven. First you must understand and admit that you have sinned against an almighty God and the penalty for that sin is death. "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
    Romans 6:23.
    Second, believe that Jesus Christ was the perfect secrifice for sin and shed his blood on a cross and rose from the dead 3 days later. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
    Romans:10:9-10
    Lastly confess to God through prayer that you are a sinner and that you believe what Jesus did, and that you want him to come into your heart and save you!
    "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
    1 John 5:13
    If you did that sincerely, I'll see you in heaven someday!!!
