Samuel has a nice delivery for someone so young. That's a credit to good coaching. It sounds like there are some of the Littles that will be aging up. Watching some of these little littles, I think you will have more than enough talent to take their place...
And already, I'm in no position to talk as the "wrong foot" thing has been my problem for as long as I've been bowling (still working on smoothing out my new four-step approach in this off-season). It can be worked on in Jake's case. Like you told me in the "Kickin' it Ol Skool" video, start with the one-step approach and work back.
I wish my league did this, me and this kid had a bit of a rivalry this year, I averaged 154 he averaged 157. Mid December I had a 233 and one week later he had a 236 it was pretty surreal. Our league is already over and I'm moving to Saturday morning league next year. Wish me luck!
There's no reason why you and your buddy can't do this on your own. Just get some of the other interested kids in your league to stay after league for a little informal challenge match. Maybe bowl a couple of games as a qualifier to "seed" yourselves into a stepladder and then roll it off. That's all there is to it. We did this for years long before I ever got the bright idea to put a camera on it.
Nolan Boucher if you’re not even hitting 1 of the 5 7 10 pins then you probably shouldn’t be at Junior Gold and a 14 pound ball is no excuse because I’m 10 and I throw a 14 pound ball and I wouldn’t even miss that bad
For the electronic scorers, a frame isn't added in until that frame is scored in totality. For example, if you have a spare in the ninth, the score won't change until the first ball in the tenth (fill ball for 9th) is thrown. Then, not again until the tenth is completed. Similarly, for the vacants, you can count on 20 pins adding to the score in the tenth as the fill ball for the ninth is completed (0spare0) and the tenth is completed (0spare0). Hope this helps.
I like the sparemaker animations there better than ours where I bowl, ours don't move or have text to explain, just has a still image of where to place the ball
Memories I bowled with the same team of 4 from 7th grade to 12th. (42 now) One change made when I was in 10th. Always first or second. League and tournaments. Top teams of Saturday leagues across Baltimore traveled on Sundays. Won that too #3guys and a girl
Annalise is using a different release, probably looking for more revs than she generated last year. Constantly improving her game; using the PBA-recommended straight shot on spares. Still has impeccable form. College programs will be very interested!
You know, I went back to the results sheets on some previous Pepsi Tournaments. She's won the Pepsi in her age group EVERY TIME SHE HAS ENTERED. That's CRAZY! But even going back to when she was U12, she was averaging over 190...on their demanding sport shots. That girl is really, really good. And she's been good for a while. What's scary is, she's only 14. She's going to get LOTS better before she even goes off to college. Chew on THAT for a while!
I don't think you meant to post that comment on this video. Maybe on the video where I was testing out the plug-ins that would allow me to put the MPH on the video. I haven't decided yet if I'll even do it, or how often. But I like the feedback.
Oh yeah, I forgot this was the video where we showed the overheads. Yes, it's there. However, it should be noted, the only cameras are down near the pins, so they're only detecting ball speed as it slows down (a bowling ball begins to slow down as soon as it hits the floor). So the figures are a little lower than what is actually the speed. If we had cameras set up from the foul line down to the pins like they do at Kegel, we could get a precise reading. This is only an estimate.
I finish on my right foot too. I’ve tried to change it but every time I land on the left I’m really off balance. So it’s not worth it to me, and I bowl decent.
So I been watching for couple years... Until this year Charlie was ur best bowler.... Nick is way better at this point..... When Nick realizes he's the best guy every time he walks in the building... He will be one of the best in the world... Iron man dies... But Spider Man comes back.
Sucks so many people were absent. The championship game didnt even feel like it. I dont think I could personally accept that win until I bowled them straight up.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour This is true. Tournaments would always be top priority for me. Just a bummer we couldnt have an epic battle between the top 2 teams.
He had not been bowling recently. But he has a new arsenal, has been bowling lights out, and bowled on this day with his team. Unfortunately, his team -- the defending champions -- did not qualify for the stepladder this season. So they did not bowl on the show today.
ed911detroit - Been suggested many times. Sometimes I give out that information, sometimes I don’t. On many occasions when I have, people then posted questions asking what ball they threw. So I’m convinced that providing this information wouldn’t guarantee that people would even notice.
Any coach who would exhibit a bias against two-handed bowling deserves to have his coaching credential stripped. Now, that said, there are some players who, I believe, would be better advised to bowl one way or the other, one-handed or two-handed. I've recommended to some one-handers that they switch to two-handed. And I've had some two-handers that I've recommended that they consider switching to one-handed. (I've got a little kid in the league right now who I think will benefit from switching to one-handed one day soon. But right now, he's having a hard enough time delivering the ball two-handed to even entertain the idea of trying to handle it one-handed.) A coach should always be on the lookout for what makes the most sense. A dogmatic view that two-handed is non-traditional and therefore has no place in the game disqualifies a person from being worthy of the title, "coach." They're a hack who has no business shaping other people's games with their short-sighted biases.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour swiching to two handed was the best decision i could have ever made. It should not be the coaches decision on what you should do, but rather the form.
Logan Dees - Ultimately it’s the player’s choice. But some can benefit from a recommendation to switch, one way or the other. But what they choose to do with that recommendation is ultimately up to the player.
I'll let him speak for himself. But I've heard of some remarkable scores that he's shot lately, including a 288-299 finish to a recent practice session. Clearly, he hasn't forgotten how to bowl.
Nice video coach but I'm surprised Charlie didn't show up I thought I was gonna see him especially when u showed his face on prodigy I thought he was there.
Rowan does really great until he gets upset and mad when he misses something. He'll learn when he gets older it doesn't do any good to get mad. Instead it makes you bowl worse alot of the time.
james daniels - I see this a lot with the little guys. They want to win so bad, and they have such (often unrealistically high) expectations that when they fail to meet those self-imposed expectations, they don’t yet have the experience or the emotional maturity to be able to process the disappointment and channel it in a productive way. Some get mad at their opponent, some get mad at who knows what, and many just cry. Sometimes uncontrollably. It’s often tough for the parent, but I’ve seen it enough times (in kids of all ages, by the way - well, maybe not the crying part so much in the older ones, but temper for sure) that I know it’s part of the maturing process, and fits in to the overall process of developing a sound mental game. But you know what? When I see these little guys act out or cry, all it tells me is that they care. A lot. And that passion will serve them well in the long run.
Will Murphy - And your point is? Many coaches I know (myself included) believe if we had children of our own in youth bowling, we’d want them learning to bowl two-handed. Absolutely.
My point is: that there aren't many one-handed bowlers - no added connotation. I myself have dabbled in two-handed bowling; It's just surprising to see it as prevalent here than other scenarios.
I don't discourage two-handed bowling, if that's something either of us is implying. I'd prefer younger bowlers - anyone in general, regarding anything - be as versatile as possible.
@Zeqinz -- I have said this a thousand times: If all you have to offer is criticism of a youth bowler, but nothing of substance to offer in terms of a prescription to help them improve, your comment is of no value whatsoever. The mission of PRODIGY BOWLERS TOUR is stated quite clearly on each episode: Celebrating Junior Bowling and Elevating Junior Bowlers. You don't hear anything there about Criticizing Junior Bowlers, do you? No, you don't. These are KIDS. Some of them take bowling very seriously. Others only do it recreationally, and therefore don't display the skill level you might see displayed by those who do. The ones who don't may be national champions at something else other than bowling, which would indicated they spend their time devoted to other activities. In Brin's case, she competes in international competitions in dance. So it's not like she's lacking in athletic prowess. She is a champion. Just not in bowling. I urge you to either modify your criticism, or delete it altogether. This channel is not here to provide people a public forum in which to criticize or humiliate CHILDREN. Those who use it for such purposes need to seek professional psychiatric help. Or get a clue.
Interesting episode as usual. With regard to that most unusual split, here is a challenge that was recently done by 18 year old PBA bowler Trey Ford and up on his TH-cam channel. Would love to see this kid on Prodigy one day (even if he is a PBA bowler). th-cam.com/video/Mfrm_u0O6MU/w-d-xo.html

Thanks! I'll try it in a week or so and see how it goes!
The only way I could have watched all 2 hours of it is by Randy's little side stories in the middle of the games.
Yes
I like the bowling commercials
My average is 106 and high game is 139
I left the 5 7 10 at the demo day last year at Junior Gold and I missed all of them but I was throwing a 14 pound ball
Nolan Boucher if you’re not even hitting 1 of the 5 7 10 pins then you probably shouldn’t be at Junior Gold and a 14 pound ball is no excuse because I’m 10 and I throw a 14 pound ball and I wouldn’t even miss that bad

No u can see the mph next to the totals score

Hey I had a thunderstorm today I am okay my power didn't go out

To some, especially those who frequently bowl tournaments, league is just a social thing, or a practice.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour This is true. Tournaments would always be top priority for me. Just a bummer we couldnt have an epic battle between the top 2 teams.
We had two 5-7-10 leaves yesterday in our league, both thrown by adult male bowlers with averages over 175.
Glad to see Annalise bowling. She has textbook form without appearing stiff or forced.
How many spares did Brandon get in the entire championship?
what happened to Logan F? is he still bowling in your league?
He had not been bowling recently. But he has a new arsenal, has been bowling lights out, and bowled on this day with his team. Unfortunately, his team -- the defending champions -- did not qualify for the stepladder this season. So they did not bowl on the show today.
1:49:29 OMG LANE 34
Picked up the lily. Quite impressive
Coach Randy wish you did the league papers slower. Would of been cool to see high avg score set etc
Anyone else notice how crooked that rake is on lane 39?? wow... 40 is too but damn 39 wtf.
I noticed that
Where is Christian?
Suggestion: do a list of the bowling balls the bowlers are using and you can give the ball information out in the video intro.

How is Logan doing he hasn't posted any videos and I dont see him on here anymore.

@@ProdigyBowlersTour thanks for the information sounds like he is doing great👍
Nice video coach but I'm surprised Charlie didn't show up I thought I was gonna see him especially when u showed his face on prodigy I thought he was there.
Those scoresheets at the beginning look like the ones at my league
Randy seeing the unusual Lily was not so unusual to me i bowled 3 yes 3 in one three game series in league on 11/24/17 what a day that was lol
I wouldn't go around bragging about it. I know people who would quarantine you for that. LOL!
I swear that rake on 39 gets more crooked each video
theBatmanGoeth2 - LOL
Is Langston still bowling?
Yes. In fact, after the first weekend, he is in 1st place in the state tournament in his division (Singles, Hdcp.). Hope it holds up.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour I'm glad he and Nolan are my favorites
@@Treydawg5 Thank you I appreciate it
josh has to remember dont throw ur plastic ball like ur reactive u cant throw it to the right and expect it to hook
To be honest I miss the old bowling alley btw I am so close a 300 I’m in the Rome ny state finals my name is Maxwell benware
THIS IS NOT A SPOILER, but, if I could get a dollar for every time someone left a spilt in this video and didn't get count, I'd be rich.
I think the first person to shoot 300 in that league would be Logan Fossum or Nick dishwasher as you like to call him.
I feel so bad for jona

Has Brins average improved any??? Just wondering
Brian Lee Was 91 in 2017. 110 in 2018. Randy said it was 120 this year. Small improvements, but improving nonetheless.
Wow! I've never seen Jason Belmonte miss the same split so many times!😃.... Otherwise a great show!!
Lots of Belmos there.

Literally only like 5 or 6 one-handed bowlers; girls not included.
