I'm glad you showed shots that weren't strikes. Bowling is a game and isn't easy. I've been bowling for almost 30 years (off and on) and there are challenges. I feel some people get discouraged because all they see on videos are strikes being thrown, so i was happy to see how you handle some adversity. Good bowling!
@@monkeycircus509 isn't that the year they had it in Reno, and there was a dust storm that blew debris all over the lanes? Basically turning the TV finals into a plastic ball contest....
Great vlog, very good explanation of what goes through your mind as you're going through qualifying. Especially like the explanations on how to try to get your ball through the pins the right way. Keep it up - great content!
It's so easy to get discouraged and give up when you have a rough start. It used to be that if I didn't start a game/block well I'd check out and autopilot through the rest just to finish and leave. Now I am learning to keep adjusting and trying things no matter what. It's really saved my nights several times. Watching pros vlogging and showing that even they go through similar struggles and watching their process of working through it without giving up helped me tremendously.
Great comeback story! Was rooting for you to carry at the end, stupid flat tens! I liked how you showed the progression from game to game... good luck in match play!
Nice showing DT! Was there on the 50 side, only got to see you from a distance on Sunday in match play. Zen is a great ball, shot bills with it last Wednesday. I ended up 12th on the PBA50 side.
I am a typical house bowler with a 215 avg. I only bowl in senior leagues and throw the bowl at about 13 mph. I'm thinking about getting the Zen or Wolverine Dark Moss. I still use my Marvel pearl and it still hits well but looking to upgrade. What ball would you recommend? I like the way both go down on a house shot but it looks like the Zen hits better.
wow bowling is a puzzle sport because so many pieces (B.Balls) you need bring because some might not feet on the oil but some that's ok and that's the unique of this sport that I love
Playing that far outside is guaranteed to leave the 10 if it gets there just a little late. But the 10 is the best non-strike leave so it is a viable strategy.
Darren can you do a ball review about the parallex effect and high road max I need new equipment and I’ve been looking into it and I think I like it but I want to see it in your hands
@@harveywallbanger2899 the house I bowl in in Idaho will put down that much oil to mix things up. House I bowled at in Cali was a couples blocks from the beach. They couldn't put down enough oil because the sand would get on the lanes and create friction. I've seen guys start from the left gutter throw it out past the 5 board and miss the entire rack.
@@vinnie4150gmailcom The lane maintenance guy at the Brunswick houses I bowled on would put the least amount of conditioner possible. His core belief was the oil got his precious pin setters dirty. See how one man can ruin things. I basically bowl on desert conditions you have to break your wrist back and maintain high speed. Your better off with a old hard surface ball. I’m jealous.
@@harveywallbanger2899 ya, that's no bueno. My only complaint of my current house is that they use the faux wooden pins. Guys that bowl league in multiple houses have 10-15 pins higher averages with wooden pins. If it's the least bit lite in the pocket you'll leave the ten pin.
You went to the caveman bowling alley in grants pass I live in southern Oregon I would love to bowl with you at some point I've been watching your channel for a while I've been considering getting into a reactive ball I've been using a white dot Columbia ball and my average between that is been about 140 to about 153 definitely looking to buy my first reactive ball if you ever get a chance to message me and I would like to bowl with you that either lava Lanes Medford OR Roxanne bowling alley in Medford

Agreed - that one game with four splits........ oof !
@@watson956 yeah thats closer to reality
I remember the days of the PBA being sponsored by Denny's and Motel 6 and having outdoor bowling events
Not to mention Lumber Liquidators.......
@@watson956 And Firestone
I wish I could get one of those Denny's spare balls.... 🤣🤣 that would be cool...
That 2012 women's US Open outdoors was a nightmare

luv that ur putting out all this content keep up the grind bro
Man you made me feel real old real fast I remember the Denny's commercials with Robert Smith, PDW, Jason Couch and Barnes
When referring to the Zen balls, you’re not allowed to raise your voice. You have to say it calmly.
Such a cool video man! Love watching as you go through your block . Great content! Good luck going forward!
Hey Darren where was the pin and CG on that Zen ball? Thanks, Jim
Damn dtang I must be an old head, we’re you even out of college when Denny’s was a PBA sponsor? 😂😂😂😂
I still got some of those patches!
Good luck DTang.. hopefully that Zen can get you top spot
I still got my dennys PBA patches!

Wow, this is at my home town and local lanes, awesome.

That's good, now put it in the books tomorrow!
Two pocket 7-10's on a pair back to back jeeeeeez what a house to roll in
I Love the Dennys bowling 🎳balls
What would be a good pearl ball to buy
5:52 if you're ever having trouble sleeping at night.
Omg please oh please keep doing the score thing at the bottom oh please so epic
Every time I get a poll about bowling I chose Chris via
Nice watching you play inside and good filming.
900 global zen is a awesome ball and it’s very smooth! I ever got sponsored I would definitely start throwing that ball.
Yessssssssssss welcome back to storm
Jason Belmonte - 2021
My favorite ball currently is The pyramid curse pearl and dv8 intimidator
wow bowling is a puzzle sport because so many pieces (B.Balls) you need bring because some might not feet on the oil but some that's ok and that's the unique of this sport that I love
I like the Zen! My fave changes but right now id say Axiom Pearl! I want to get a Hyroad
Congrats on making match play..
Keep it going
The Zen is an amazing ball. 😍
Good job. Were any bowlers there I would have heard of? I didn't recognize any names from the shirts.
I just got a Zen about a month ago and it’s really good!
Playing that far outside is guaranteed to leave the 10 if it gets there just a little late. But the 10 is the best non-strike leave so it is a viable strategy.
I think the best non strike leave is the 9. Since it shows you are hitting too flush and still carrying corners
@@stompingpeak2043 I like having 10 pin and 9 pin problems a lot better than 8, 5, and 7 pin problems as a righty.
How heavy do you bowl?
A ZEN-like PBA experience!!
STAY FOCUSED!!! RIDE THE WAVE!!!! .....(IN-OUT NOT OVERATED) LOL
Imagine walking into a bowling alley and all you see are pros in uniform, so you just turn around and walk out so you don't embarrass yourself
Someone just made the 8-10 Chronicles at 5:12
Zen ball good
Good bowling.
I’d be revisiting my life choices after eating at Denny’s.
New favorite bowling ball? Urethane gone?!?!
Love the game to game updates. Maybe let us know where the cut is so it's easier to see the scoring pace compared to how you are bowling?
This one is tough for me bc I’m trying to train myself to not score watch! I’ll try to find the happy medium with this
Won a doubles tournament today by switching to the zen on the third game!
I love Denny’s
Got a discounted rate at a motel 6 cuz I was going to a regional🤑 and I was hoping the ball would have been a Trauma... God I miss that ball!
I go to my nearest bowling alley and the regular floor is more slippery than the lanes lmfao
Black Bear diner, VitaminD that is the key to high scores, Black Bear diner!!!! Not Denny’s
God bless everyone and have a good day,.
What is that song Darren user at 1:30?!?
Hey Darren Idk if you remember me but I took a picture with you in mesa az pro bowl
Darren can you do a ball review about the parallex effect and high road max I need new equipment and I’ve been looking into it and I think I like it but I want to see it in your hands
We’re do you see that kind of oil for balls like that. I don’t ever see oil were I bowl.

I did do a ball review for each of them! Check out the channel!
I remember denny and pba
hello darrenn. im yuwa from indonesia
watching that game on 9/10 hurt
ZEN BALL GOOD
Proton physix?
I have the ZEN 🔥👍👍
the only BBD I know is Bell Biv Devoe
I think you haven't reviewed any balls recently.. what about doing a ball review video some time? especially the Storm Trend
We typically do ball reviews on the newest releases! Stay tuned...
@@DarrenTang will do xD
Probably would've qualified first if he are breakfast at the BBD
Fax
What is his favorite new ball on this video
@@josephbutler3577 did you watch the video?
@@TheWillDaBeast85 I caught it at the end .I know now
Why do people got to make the Zen look so good? I might have to get one 😩
I hope I can find a great favorite ball soon too I wonder if I drop to a 14lb ball will it help me hmmmm
Nice
I'm 33 I remember dennys

Looks like a tiny house
Did he throw two 7 10s in a row
How, How does one make a urethane move like this 😭
300th
Dude, your timing is so off. I'd work on that if I were you. You do this thing with your arm that stops you from being consistent
lol Maybe you never heard about snapping it at the albow? You should try it some time. You know you can learn a lot from watching the pro's?
@@IIXIIXVXIIXII near the end when his back swing was higher, the timing was right for such a quick step. But during the first 3 his back swing was too low and he grabbed it.
Didn’t see you on the tour tho?
Stevie Wonder would have better luck than me
At looking for who tf asked you to coach the pros
Lmao
Take off that stupid mask. Enough already. Freedom. No masks.
