This video was a clear example of why it’s so important to have different bowling balls for different reactions and to have them do different things. Makes me want to bring more balls to tournaments and league versus what I normally do.
I’ve thought about that too, but for league you’re always bowling on the same pattern, same lanes. You really only need 2-3 that you know how to throw on them
I agree. Some people just can’t comprehend different balls. I can’t throw my proton on a burn pattern for a collegiate tournament. I need to ball down. I don’t have the skill to even try throwing the proton on that.
Love love love the video format, watching the ups and downs of the block, all the things you tried and with some great music! I really hope we get more of this throughout the season!
Keep grinding D, you got this! Your release is looking A1 right now, all that hard work and preparation is apparent. Now it’s time to pop off. Love the bonus Smallwood footy… shout-out to my city Saginaw baby! P.s. props to this edit Jessie, you never miss. Extremely crisp and easy to watch.
No shade to the other bowling vloggers, but these are the best bowling videos on youtube. The slow-mo, the editing, the strikes... Chefs kiss. (I'm getting into bowling and could use a free ball ;)
Have to say the production and editing of these videos jesse is awesome. Jesse has upped his game. Now dtang needs to up his game so jesse can get a well deserved raise. You guys rock. Love the channel. Keep up the great work.
I have no idea why bowling has been in my recommendations for the past month haven't even talked about it but this past month I've been watching yours and 220s videos nonstop and it's been amazing and made me respect bowling so much more and now I'm bowling twice a week on my days off
Was fun watching you bowl tonight. My son had a blast seeing all the people he watches on TH-cam and was in aww on just how down to earth and humble everyone was. At one point he looked at me and was like, I was just standing next to .... for the last 30 min and thought it was just someone spectator like me.
Having only one ball right now, I’m trying to learn a lot again. I tore the labrum in my left hip so I’m trying to get there again. Always pulling for you and the team!
Note to the editor: Your work is seriously incredible! The timing of the shots with the music is flawless. There's an oddly satisfying feel to it. Also, please use the song Kadak by Zack Merci in a future video!!!!!
DT.....been rolling the rock for 50 years, and I can tell you your videos keep me inspired. Having coached HS for many years, the only advice I give you is just keep grinding. You're the pro....I'm not, but just be perfect up to the foul line. What happens 60 feet away is out of your control....and that goes for your competitors as well. Pullin' for ys all the way back here in Nebraska
Just discovered this channel led than a month ago when I got back into bowling. Just now I was pumping my fist like Tiger Woods when DTang struck. My fav PBA bowler. Thank you for all the content!
Funny story, when I was doing the regionals back in the 90’s I went to Roanoke and the word on the street was heavy oil pattern. Wrong they were dry and it was so bad we that a lot of us were weighing in house balls. I used a columbia blue dot lol and it was my second regional
Everytime I saw Butturff I kept thinking right after bowling he had a shift at The Foot Locker with that shirt. Keep grinding sir. They look flat out awful to bowl on.
Darren What sound track are you using , I’m a 61 year old AF Veteran who in my mind is a 30 year when it comes music . I need to bowl to it !! Good luck , love your attitude!
You can do this, Darren. It won't be easy to make the cut, but if it was easy, there wouldn't be a cut, right? I wish I could watch live, but the schedule's wrong for me so I'll be watching for the video and the news that your week isn't over yet.
This is how I see it. Most of the guys circled it out to around 8-10 from deep inside with a slower, heavy hand. It looks as Darren is going more down and in. Obviously, seeming like less margin for error.
@@codyyellott117 Not at all. The plus and minus system is all based off a 200 average. For example, if you bowl a 205 game, you are +5 for that game. If you bowl a 180, you are -20 for that game.
@@winonakid1990 yea that top number is a running total for all games. If you pause at 2:48, you can see the number shows Darren at -30 and the other 2 players on the other lane are -41 and +144. It's just easier to read where you're at rather than having a large number for your actual series. Remember, these guys are bowling dozens of games.
Do those pro tournaments work the same as a regular tournament? Like can you play side action for handicap/scratch singles/doubles etc? And does it pay out up to a certain number of spots? Or it’s just about making it over the pin count and trying to win individually ? Also I think you would’ve bowled a little better if you accepted my 1v1 challenge.
Darren--after watching this video and several others lately that you have been posting I have noticed that on some first shots it seems as if you release is late and the ball is not coming off your hand consistently from shot to shot. Some of those shots your line of attack was right on but you ball did not finish correctly because of that release. Most of the time your release is butter smooth but watch this video and focus on your release. I believe it is costing you key count. Almost looks like your thumb is getting hung up on some of those throws.
Dude, you're my favorite bowler. I've been bowling for just over a year and I started with a 200 average. I always suck the first three weeks. A 473 and a 613. Then a 543 with a 246 game. Do better. I also need to do better
Would it be possible to put on the screen which balls you are using and when you switch to a new ball? That would be helpful to us watching or at least me.
@@rb8999 thanks for that! I am interested in when he switches to them to see the difference in the new one and the last one to help understand the ball choice for the situation.
@@Christopher_Black this video would be tricky to look at in regards to that. The pattern design dictated where to play, it just came down to finding the right angle to increase carry and miss-room (not much lol)
Im a newbie at watching the pros....can anyone explain why everyone seems to quickly move to the extreme left during the game block. It seems like the most difficult angle to hit the pocket flush, and uses all your ball momentum against your hook. Obviously its the correct thing to do because all these amazing pros seem to do it.....i just dont understand it.
Everybody is throwing the ball the same place so that line dries out. Have to keep moving left as that happens. If you don't keep it in the oil, the ball loses energy making it harder to strke.

Nobody should be using the US Open as an example for what to do for their walled-up league night. lol
yes because the US open is exactly the same as your 20:1 house pattern. Lol.
@Isaac Lawrence Workman skill issue
I agree. Some people just can’t comprehend different balls. I can’t throw my proton on a burn pattern for a collegiate tournament. I need to ball down. I don’t have the skill to even try throwing the proton on that.
Jesse you are totally killing it with the EDITS. Keep up the good work as you can tell that you really put some love into your videos.
This! Also what’s the name of the first song? Love the blog! Greetings from 🇲🇽
Keep yourself in it, you’re not the only one struggling. Control what you can and go get em. We are all rooting for you my man. 🇵🇭👍

Great video…..keep the grind brother can’t wait for the next video
Jessie, my man, you might be changing the vlog culture with these videos. These are just perfect. The ups and downs are great to see
Nice ! Also it was noice to see the Referee Jacob Butturf throwing reactive !
Having only one ball right now, I’m trying to learn a lot again. I tore the labrum in my left hip so I’m trying to get there again. Always pulling for you and the team!
Nice spare shooting D. Keep it up. Jesse did you get to try a Momma Via cookie?

The Eternity looks absolutely sick going down the lane. Those colors are *chefs kiss*!
When you have a bowling tournament followed by a shift at Foot Locker...Jakob Butturff ladies and gentlemen .
Can anyone tell me what ball he is using at 3:41
Great Video as always! Can you post the name of the ball when he's throwing? Sometimes I don't know which one it is and if not, that's okay. Thanks!
Just discovered this channel led than a month ago when I got back into bowling. Just now I was pumping my fist like Tiger Woods when DTang struck. My fav PBA bowler. Thank you for all the content!
Thanks for the two uploads D! Why did you get away from the revenant so fast the first time? It was looking clean. You got this!
Was a little too clean! Paid max penalty for my mistakes which is sign the ball is not doing the right thing
Get into the hot butter through knife mood D, keep it up, you got this!
Don't get discouraged u the best Darren.
Jesse a goated editor too
Why does Buttruff look like he works at foot locker lol! Keep up the work D gonna be a slugfest for sure

That shot of Jacob Butturff from behind really shows how much his wrist is cocked when he releases the ball - holy smokes!
Everytime I saw Butturff I kept thinking right after bowling he had a shift at The Foot Locker with that shirt. Keep grinding sir. They look flat out awful to bowl on.
D don’t beat yourself up too much. Remember to to have fun! That’s when you bowl the best!
That Eternity looks so good down the lane 🔥
Love this video. Jamming showing the good and bad. The grind is real...OG cheeseits 😉
Good luck to you guys thanks for the content. Remember have fun!
It's good to see balls I bowl with in league on tour with the professionals! I just can't do what they do especially with the Revenant and Fate 😂😂😂
By far the best music that fits the mood
7:38 is that the storm revenant?? Really good ball
Butters looking like he’s gonna be late for his shift at footlocker
Darren
What sound track are you using , I’m a 61 year old AF Veteran who in my mind is a 30 year when it comes music . I need to bowl to it !!
Good luck , love your attitude!
Keep grinding Darren. I can understand how the US OPEN patterns are brutal. Keep your head up and 1 shot at a time. You got this
Good luck on day 3, you are not that far away! We are all supporting you. U R the best!
Darren I really want to bow like you and curve the ball because I can’t even keep the ball on the lane
The perfect example of having all the right equipment for specific patterns. Keep grinding it out Darren.
OG Cheez-Its FTW🤣🤣🤣
Tough conditions darren!! Keep grinding!
Keep plucking away at those pins. You are making that Infinity Ball look good. Best wishes for the rest of your tourney. I am rooting for you.
You can do this, Darren. It won't be easy to make the cut, but if it was easy, there wouldn't be a cut, right? I wish I could watch live, but the schedule's wrong for me so I'll be watching for the video and the news that your week isn't over yet.
Doing great! Control your controlibles, be a one-shot worrier, and fill frames. All you can ask for and hope for the best.
The fact that mikey seemed so pleased to hear that white cheddar was winning
Two uploads in one day! Whoa! How’d we get so lucky? Can’t wait for this AD to be over. 🤣
keep up the good work Darren
❤

What is that pink and black hall?
Im quite new here, could someone explain what the + & - means in bowling. Is it like avarage score in a tournament?

@@BornIn1500 I had a simiilar question, but I'm not sure this fully answers it because they show a game at about 4:40 of a 225 that is -25??
+ or - compared to 200/game.

I can't be the only one as every new song comes on thinking, "this is a 300 game"
You should ask tom smallwood if he misses town and country lanes in flint michigan he used to bowl a league there with my dad
Damn, these patterns are TOUGH! Best of luck boi!
Anyone know what the green ball is he was throwing at the end?
what are those bowling shoes? dexter's?
3G Tour X
@@DarrenTang Oh didn't expect Darren himself to reply. I'm copping
I wonder if there's a league record?I'm on like 14 bowling leagues now on 1 leg and Crutches ..
Im not a pro bowler but I see you every shot you change the way you shoot your the professional and Im your fan its just what I saw
Great vid... is Keven on Spotify yet?
Been there for a hot minute!
Jesse what are you editing on while on the road?
Cool tech bowling Darren tang
Yo Jesse can I get your Spotify/TH-cam Music playlist
Did Darren pick up that 5 pin? People need their drinks.
I wish I could be there to witness this amazing feeling

Nice adjustment! Stay sharp!
Dude, you're my favorite bowler. I've been bowling for just over a year and I started with a 200 average. I always suck the first three weeks. A 473 and a 613. Then a 543 with a 246 game. Do better. I also need to do better
Darren do you have any tips for people starting to compete in bowling for the first time like me?
Practice
Why did you switch from the revenant?
Too many split
Would it be possible to put on the screen which balls you are using and when you switch to a new ball? That would be helpful to us watching or at least me.
Reality, Eternity, Fate, Revenant, and IQ Tour Emerald were what he used.
@@rb8999 thanks for that! I am interested in when he switches to them to see the difference in the new one and the last one to help understand the ball choice for the situation.

A DOUBLE UPLOAD
2 VIDS IN ONE DAY?!?!
Spoiled today with 2 vlogs I like it and go daron you got this
Hey Darren and Jesse, I was wondering if the pros actually designed their signature jerseys or if the company themselves designs it for the pros?
Tell Chris slone I said From colum
any way we can get what balls darren throws in the description cause i'm lost sometimes
The music is rough
Hope you bowl better today
I love that jersey!
Im calling it bro's winning this and is boutta pull a rabbit out of his hat.
How come it's always a strike whenever you show that troup guy.. lol

Takes the pattern out of play and it makes more about execution.
When pros bowl less than 190 you know it's a tough pattern
Whipping out the Emerald! Nice!
I’m surprised no urethane.
W on telling me what shoes you have I asked the last 3 videos
How would the Zen U do on these lanes??
Also, OG cheez-its for the win🎉
Troup checking with ref Jakob he didn’t foul 😂
OG for the win
I enjoyed the music.
Who would win?
Man Bun Troup v. Referee Butturff
The revenent looked money
Not too bad just 8 pins behind Belmo. Tomorrow will be better.
Just keep chucking
Is it decorated in my ward
Those 10 pins should be illegal at the beginning
