- A video of PBA players throwing the ball straight at a full rack, rather than the normal hook ball.
Possibly the most pointless video I’ve made…
Thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed!
10K views! Thank you all for the support!
Edit: 20K views! Thank you so much!
Edit: 50K… wow! Very thankful for all of you!
Edit: 100K… speechless…
100k views for a bowling channel is the same as 10000000 for any other channel
I don’t know anything about bowling aside from who do you think you are I am and I loved your video!
@@4inchesofpleasure Thank you so much!

If anyone is curious why this is done, sometimes, if you're required to get lets say 7 pins to win, throwing with hook, sometimes you can pull it (miss left) or drop it (miss right) and not get the required, so its a much safer play (unless you need a strike or 9, to go straight at the pocket, or sometimes just to have fun
Well explained!
also, bowling balls break down every shot, so another point you can think about is that throwing a spare ball doesn’t disrupt the oil on the lane as much as a reactive resin or urethane so that you’re shot can be saved for the next match or keep your bowling ball in max condition (just to save money on either cleaning your ball or buying more bowling balls, if you have the privilege and dedication to the sport to spend)
@@patrickwall8517 he needed more than a couple, haha, but yes
I thought it was like a taunting thing, like to disrespect your opponent. Essentially you know you're gonna win so you throw it straight lol
“or sometimes just to have fun”
not to the opponent who lost to a straight ball at full rack
1:39 he threw that 3/4 of the lane before it even landed 😂
You could have just filmed me playing a full game and saved yourself the trouble. Lol
😂
Clever
except u not a pba bowler
Except they hit the head pin all but once :P
Especially screaming after knocking down 6-8 pins
You never want to see your opponent throw straight at the rack...it means you're about to lose.
0:44
Either that or you’ve already lost
@ChanceOfOne344254 yeah true
If Osku ever releases that ball early in his backswing, it's gonna look like a crime scene lol.
Oh absolutely
Oksu timestamp?

I'm trying to bowl straight from now on. (Until I get my accuracy back up). When I hit the pocket without hook, the pins explode like anyone hooking into the pocket. I've pondered giving up hooking altogether, as that might make me better ready for all lane conditions. But it won't even matter unless I can get my 220 average back. My average now is 96.
Thanks TH-cam for putting my reply to the wrong comment and not letting me delete it
Osku, the fastball pitcher of pro bowling
Yep! Untouchable speeds
Yeah He's my favorite player now. 2nd: Jason Belmonte 3rd:Sean Rashh
I had a buddy who bowled, with a 16 lb ball, in our league, with his wife. Saw him finish a game once using his wife's 14 lb ball. I don't think the ball hit the lane for like 30 feet. The rack virtually exploded when the ball went in. Took out 9 pins...I think they were afraid to not fall! The 10 pin cowered in fear, but remained.
fucking 10 pin
I don't watch bowling but I recognize the "who do you think you are, I am" guy lol
1:40 is my favorite one! I watched it live and died laughing for about 5 minutes
He nearly hit the pins in flight!
i didnt notice it until i read this lmao damn near hit the dry wood
Yeah, I noticed that the first time and went back to confirm. Seems he lofted it 50 feet. What strength!!
I bet he plays company softball too 😂😂😂😂
you always know if Tom Daugherty won cause you’ll hear him screaming throughout the house no matter how loud it is
Yep!😂
I agree and oh christ its cringeworthy, sounds like one of them rainbow flag turd divers
I thought it was Rick Flair at first. 😂
I still remember when he shot 100 exactly in a TV match and cheered sarcastically when he took out half the Big 4 to get it. His opponent meanwhile shot 299, which remains the largest margin of defeat in a televised PBA match.
I'm terrible at bowling but I once hit 5 strikes in a row while throwing straight. Happened in the last 5 frames of a match that my buddy and I had bet on as well. He was up 30 before I did it and he ended up losing by 20. Couldn't repeat it with a thousand tries, and my friend was absolutely slack jawed.
Had that happen twice when I was in a league. My average stinks (120s), but twice I managed to string a series of strikes together in a game, my highest scores being a 222 then a 223 the following year.
Same sort of thing, I managed 4 in a row. I normally get about 120 and of course I’ve never been able to replicate that insane lucky run.
literally read this in a southern accent
@@golazo I read it in an English accent
Was messing around doing this earlier while practicing. It feels like putting every ounce I have into the shot and I can just barely crack 20MPH.
Daugherty makes 24.7 look so easy!
It's also way more fun than it has the right to be to just rocket a straight ball at the head pin and watch the rack explode.
It is certainly very fun to do! I love to mess around at the end of a game and have a bit of fun with the straight ball too
and osku with his 35 mph :))
That 24 is the speed right when it leaves his hand while the one at the alley is the speed when it reaches the pins!
@@okkumo1476 oooo, i didn't think about that. Makes sense looking now, though. The speed pops up immediately at release.
Maybe I do throw it close to 25 o_O
You should look up the video where Osku throws a strike over 33 mph 🤪
A compilation I never knew I needed. Thank you
No problem!
i love seeing osku palermaa one hand fast
Me too. Very fun to watch!
Its literally insane
Throws harder than anyone in the world!!! (According to him😎)
@@KyleKnoblauch indeed he does!
@@KyleKnoblauch many people can do as osku :)
Haugen is so used to playing the gutter that he couldn’t hit the headpin going down the middle 🤣
"Shaving cream on the ball" what a quote
Bruh n9w 8f other people play on that language with that oil then 8 will curve alot probably bc of the shaving cream on the lane
*lane
There’s just something so satisfying about watching these pros who are usually so focused on pinpoint precision and finesse just take the cannon out and start blasting.
I dont think I've ever seen a messenger hit a headpin that hard before
There's an older clip on TH-cam with Pete Webber in a similar situation. I believe he needed 4 pins so he threw it straight..............and he left the 5-7-10!
Yes! Was about to mention this and you beat me to it
Is that the one where he wanted to flip the bird at the pins but blew on them instead?
Yes! @@Renville80
1:03 “who do you think you are, I AM!”
0:14 actually went through the pins half decent lol
It takes effort and patience to make these; thank you!
Thank you! Yeah, finding the clips can definitely be a long process
Daugherty's reaction was so wholesome man...
1:40 that was almost a Yorker in Ten Pin Bowling
This is the only way I throw a ball. Lol. Super straight.

But can you do it with backspin and STILL get a strike? 😏
1:31 Me when someone asks me to yell the opposite of “no”
Del Ballard would approve of this practice.
I’m sure he would!
He actually learned from his infamous gutterball blunder against Pete Weber and did this to win another title.
I hate this practice.
This shot is commonly called the rocket to the pocket.
For good reason!
That’s what she said 🤪
@@dumattco 😂
1:14 how is that even possible
Welcome pros to our typical house shot and this is how you have to play the lanes….burned up, dirty, no oil.
Yep😀
In candlepin, and duckpin, straight is the norm, just weird in tenpin (although I shoot straight in tenpin).
i dont know much about bowling but im guessing its hard to get a strike throwing the ball straight at pins? thats why the professionals curve the ball in?
Yes. A straight ball tends to deflect to one side, preventing it from hitting the pocket solidly altho this isn't always the case. A ball thrown well with hook and spin hits the pocket between the 1 and 2 or 1 and 3 pins and drives thru without deflection causing its path to deviate, creating a much bigger chance for a strike.
Yeah, pretty much. Harder to get a strike, but also harder to get a gutterball.
3:18 To me that looked 50 mph but probably only 30!
It was 33 mph!
@@linkin46 oh dang!
I’m guessing it was Osku?
oh yeah@@MIKEK3NT 100%
When Rash had hair lmao
0:21 At first I thought the crowd were laughing at him having a horrific skin condition;
Two big takeaways from this:
1) All players scream like Pete Weber, he just got famous for "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE I AM"
2) All players at all levels love the idea of just chucking the ball down the lane as hard as they can sometimes
The Daugherty scream😳😳😳
Usually when they just need to mark in the 10th they'll shoot straight to keep it on the lane.
Did that one guy cut himself really bad shaving?
It's cool how many are absolute heaters
I only bowl straight. I grew up bowling duck pin in Baltimore as a kid. When I switched to 10 pin my form carried over. I can’t hook a ball if I try. I do have a 183 average bowling straight though.
Also known as the Del Ballard shot.
Im surprised Weber didnt think it was unsportsmanlike to straight rack him.
What's on the bowlers face at 0:23
Shaving cream!
Lot of these they already have the game won right? Or don't need a strike to win so they chuck it down the middle to take away any chance of a gutter ball.
I bowl straight like this and average like 160, so not great but I’m comfortable with it and I do think I’m pretty good at it
Straight bowler here, got up to 185 average. Highest ever was a 212.
“I just wanted to make it interesting” 3:50
Smallwood was using a foreign substance on his ball…haha
where did you get this clip at 3:01?
th-cam.com/video/Bz8kDS63RtA/w-d-xo.html
I wonder what happens if they bowl a 300 game in the 12th frame using a straight ball
That’d be pretty crazy and risky!
@@linkin46 U mean it's really impossible right?
@@waylandquiaoit3871 Maybe not impossible, but unlikely for sure
@@linkin46 Oh
Throwing straight is how I achieved my PB.
i do candlepin bowling up here in massachusetts and most of us throw a straight ball but it comes with a lot of chops and splits. it's hard to throw a consistent hook by the nature of the size of the ball and the hard maple lanes all the way down from approach, foul lind and to the pin deck. the ball skids alot.
Plus it’s hard to hook a ball with no holes. Lol
probably so, i've never bowled tenpin but would like to try it sometime, i like to watch it though@@playdiscgolf1546
What about Osku Palermaa video called "INSANELY FAST! Possibly Worlds Fastest Bowling Strike Fred Flintstone style thrown by Osku Palermaa!"
Press the reset button just before impact. I wonder how many rakes/sweeps can stop the ball. Brunswick A2 rake looks flimsy and would break. Ball would probably concave the deck shield.
You'd be charged with a misdemeanor, depending on the municipality. It'll cost you financially as well.
They are supposed to be flimsy so they don't break. They give.
If all you have to do to win is keep it on the lanes why not fire it straight down the lane
Definitely a safe way of doing it
I thought these balls were counter weighted. They always keep a balanced one just in case?
most spare balls and plastic balls have a pancake core so their good for spares and and straight throwing
This user has watched a lot of bowling
if anyone is wondering:"who does this stupid shit" they do it is because they need 4 or 5 pins and because they are professionals they can do it with no effort . also, they may foul making them (sometimes) lose by 1 pin.
Osku throwing 30+...BAM
My favrite one is the Don Johnson osku one. Its bc of the slund
0:39 Screaming like little girls
1:30 🙄
The classic "Hit it till it dies" pattern. Classy
The title sounds like it comes from rap
all that, and only 1 Southpaw......
You forgot Chris Barnes 2005 US Open
Champions League bowling!
I don't know why I thought that said NBA players lol
😂😂
Looking like me out there.
2:08 that's the straightest modern relese I've seen.
BLAST ‘EM!
PEW! PEW!; PE-PEW!
ya gotta love tom daughtry
These guys make me think I could be a pro.
Seems like just "don't throw a gutter"
Where's the Del Ballard Jr when you need him?
I like how it's an entire continent (europe) vs one single country (USA)
Lol, they do the same thing in golf with the Ryder Cup. Always struck me as odd that Europeans have to lump themselves together in order to compete against the US hahaha
Well I’m not sure what you want to do to make it competitive. If you exclude Russia as Golf and bowling are not sports commonly played there, the USA have a bigger population than Germany, UK, France, Italy and Spain combined.
You bowl to get a good score. I bowl to watch the pins fly around randomly.
We are not the same.
Too bad Del Ballard didn’t throw his last ball straight at the 1991 Fair Lanes Open . . .
0:13 the full rack strike
Can you make a part 2?
I will work on it soon!
Ok!!
I like them throwing straight
2:05 Bowler name he kinda looks like dom barrett's twin brother
Sam Cooley
@@linkin46 Oh the aussie ok thanks
Leagues should outlaw the hook and watch averages drop like crazy. It's more of a fair game.
Osku the strongest
Absolutely
Just watched two adds to view this
Sorry about that! I didn’t put them there aha
Bro u need part 2 for this
Ok!
@@linkin46 Oh good luck
@@waylandquiaoit3871 Cheers! And ty for the suggestion!
@@linkin46 No problem
1:37 I hope Kevin's thumb is ok from that shot
I also have a lightning spare ball so I know when this happens it hurts.
The shoulder and the thumb don't like it.
Damn, yeah.
Yea also nice vid
@@JustADudee31 Thank you!
im worried about the lane actually
@@monitorscreenbroked Don’t be.
It’s a synthetic bowling lane so it can take a beating like that.
Something like that won’t break it.
Osku Palermaa’s chair shot doesn’t damage the lanes, neither would this
This is the only way I play lol. I get strikes 🤷🏾♂️
True bro! I find it fun playing this way too
Are spare balls usually lighter than strike balls?
They’re the same weight
2:50 was my favorite hit.
I'll die on this hill. The logic behind this makes zero sense. "All he needs is good count and he's a winner." Ok, then throw a regular shot. You're a pro bowler that averaged 230 over 60 games on a sport shot to get here. You can hit the pocket, just like you did the whole rest of the telecast. Yes, you can wash out. Yes, Del Ballard. But over the course of a tournament and a week's worth of bowling, how many hard and straight balls do you throw at the head pin?
Hey dude where u from btw?
I’m am from the UK.
@@linkin46 Oh from what place?
@@waylandquiaoit3871 England
@@linkin46 No i mean what place u lived in 🏴?
Sound*
the sports look great but the players are screaming like little girls. this puts me off.
Ngl, I've only ever played ten pin as a social thing once every few years. It is only the expense of bowling that stops me wanting to do it. I'm sure Golf would be cheaper!!
In any case, I only know how to bowl 'straight'.
Yep. It definitely adds up over time
But not Belmo doing it🤦🏻 not like he’s done it several times
2:16 Vikings safety?
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE I AM
Straight ball is for amateur…
Fun tho!
Only one without a heart, I am jealous
@@EricSmyth4Christ lemme change that rq
Osku: 31,25 mph lol rnnnnnnbumm
Very fast!!
