What Dick Weber told me to do was shoot for the 7 or 10 pin on my practice games on the first ball then shoot for the pocket on the second ball. That way you practice both aspects of the game at the same time. Raised my average 20 pins almost overnight when I was in high school
That’s brilliant, I’m gonna use this! Thank you for sharing
wow thats great!
"Get a spare everytime" 7-10 split, "I'm about to end this man's whole career."
You get these types of splits less then 2 percent of the time though
@@3dprintedair316 Depends on the way you attack the pins because i could bowl a 7-10 split every single time If i hit it at the right angle
@@Anthonysmith-ic8ef yep. My wife left the 5,7,10 split 3 times in one game a few weeks ago. And it was a pocket shot all 3 times. I always try and let her bowl her game without trying to help her because I don't like someone trying to tell me how to bowl. But I was like you need to step 8 inches forward or backwards on the approach to change the angle you are hitting. Sure enough it fixed it the next ball. Then she ended up beating me so I knew I should not of helped her.🤣🤣
@@jvmiller1995 Lmao 🤣
@@3dprintedair316 the amount of times I get that split is just pure skill at this point then
Great lesson. Instead of being dogmatic about it, you have advised doing what’s most comfortable for you, as long as it makes sense. I appreciate the way your lessons are brief and you don’t just like to hear yourselves talk. Thanks again for your channel.
Way back in the day, we had a bowling alley that still used manual pin setters. We'd go over on Saturday and they would set up spares for us to practice on.
"How To Never Miss Another Spare With Brad and Kyle" so in conclusion. Figure it out yourself. lmao
Thanks for this TL:DR. lol i need help hittin that renegade 10 pin...
Lol 😂
I thought the same thing
Lmao 🤣🤣😂
Well it’s right, but the process they are following to figure it out for themselves. Yep, just do what they’re doing.
*This is why this channel is awesome. They don't even try to edit out the misses. Helpful to know that making the 1-3-8-9 is hard AF!*
Yea ikr. I like to see bowling videos that show misses because I don't care if you're Walter Ray Williams. EVERYBODY doesn't always strike! Even when u practice on your favorite shot in your favorite house. If that was the case your average would be 300 lol. Keep keeping it real guys. 💯
You could just aim for pocket for either one or three as for 9 just line up corner to corner good luck with 8
@@Rah215 ironically using LaneTalk, I've had that spare once in all competition this year and missed it so I'm 0 for 1 LOL. I'm 80% on 10 pins (104 attempts), but 63% on 6-10s (46 attempts), and 100% on 2 pins (33 attempts). Give me 2 pins LOL!
Best thing to do is not leave that mess LOL!
@@TraumaER my 10s are my only bad ones I generally hook all my spares and for the life of me I can’t hit 10. 😭 I’m better of just doing a grandma throw for it
I personally like using the 3-6-9 spare system. My style (tweener) always has hook, and my house tends to be drier after the headers. I agree with keeping the ball in oil longer. Now if I could just hit my target more consistently...
It would be nice if in a spares video they actually picked up even 1 spare. LOL
they are teaching you the ways to pick one up, showing u how you should shoot at one, if you're so ignorant that you can't understand that then why even come to this video.
@@Vehnex I understand that my dude. I know they are good teachers and are better bowlers than i'll ever be. Just thought it was kinda odd...
nick rumley nah they won’t be better Bowlers than you’ll ever be, just gotta work hard my dude, they gave you the basics on how to pick up spares properly, now you just gotta practice and expand on that knowledge at your own pace.
@@Vehnex yup
watch teaching videos from Earl Anthony or Mike Aulby ,, :)
Awesome tip and breakdown Brad and Kyle! Can’t wait to see your Vlog on the next PBA Event... Keep Grinding 👍🏽😊👌🏽
As a right hander I feel that hitting the 7 is one of the easiest spares but hitting the 10 is one of the hardest. 😐
Try a backspin!
I'm the exact opposite as a right hander, I can hit tens all day day but when a 7 pin comes up it basically says to me 🖕
@@derder159 i lost a tournament missing a 7 pin. hooked it into the gutter by 1 inch
I like to start from the far left, throw it across and let my ball spin correct it way from the gutter but still hit the 10
Pin
To me the 7 pin is the hardest spare by far to pick up. I'm a 185 ave bowler.
Not true, I get congratulated for hitting ten pins all the time. Because it's so rare that I hit them 😂
Same I am so bad at the 10 pins
@@allenthomas914 ye 10 is hard
@@BeN-bn5yb yeah if I could hit them 50 percent i would be 190 200 but i hit maybe 1 out of 10 on league night it's sad
F the 10 pin all i can say...
Had a 666 tonight. Missed 4 ten pins. 🤦🏻♂️
Hey guys, absolutely love your videos, I am from Scotland and i never miss a video!!! Anyway i just wanted to share a little story
About 7 or more years ago, USBC Gold Coach Ron Hatfield came to Scotland for a coaching camps, and at the time Ron was coaching Rhino Page, at that moment in time i had always had issues with spares, even when trying to throw straight... I spoke with Rhino and he shared with me that he actually looks at the pins reflection on the lane when aiming at spares, i gave it a go and have never looked back.. Even though i still miss some (COME ON WE ARE HUMAN AFTERALL!!!) i think i could easily say that i have consistently picked up more than 75% of my spares ever since
I've started looking further down lane recently, especially on spares, and it totally works, especially for righty 10 pin.
Woah I am gonna start trying that now
My Dad taught us that when we started bowling 60 years ago.
Goes back to a video from 2 years ago to watch my favorite channel on general coaching?! Yes.
I really like the advice you gave. I really like the point about drifting and how basically everyone's spare game is a little different. I have always looked for a "quick fix" in my spare game. You like you were saying "you have to stand here and you have to hit this mark" because I didn't practice. So I agree FOR THE LOVE OF GOD... JUST PRACTICE. lol again great advice gents.
This makes me happy , because now when I miss, I know they miss also ! Welcome to reality with the rest of us! LMBO
You guys have really helped my bowling
Very nice I would love to see a video about how to relax or calm yourself I get way to tense in league I bowl league and ibsuck it up way too tense after match is over I stay bowl 3 more games and I do great what do you guys do to stay loose and not strong arm everything?
It would be nice if the lanes could be setup in a practice mode. In other words, at the control panel a certain spare could be set up via the keyboard. I am not sure if this exists at any modern houses but I know it would be possible and would enhance bowling practice.
Mike Milhoan that is a great idea!!
That would be so cool, I’d use that daily
There are places that have that software. It's very convenient
Las Vegas has a few houses with it.... Getting them to let me use it in open bowling however... Rare SMH
Corner pins are the biggest struggle for most people and they are easy to practice. Throw your first shot at them, then throw your strike ball at what is left. Twice the practice for your money
I play angles and that is what I teach my students. I do not care how they get there. Nice video guys!
Nice clip guys. Good to highlight the dirty work also.
You guys should do more bowling in the videos. Brad do some storm ball reviews please!
so i'm new to bowling, when you want to throw a straight ball say at the 1 pin over the middle arrow where should i stand and slide for a left hander? i've heard the rule of seven but not sure how that exactly works. also whats the best hand and wrist and release condition. thnx, steve.
Exactly the video I need 😂🤣 I’m only in my 3rd ever league and just met some pros today to learn more. One spare I can get though is the 5 pin other than that.... 😂🤣
I’m in my first league rn just started bowling around 8 months ago and am averaging round 215 this last 10 weeks but really sucked beginning of year with average 145 to start! Just keep playing and you’ll see it approve! Good luck with your 5 pin I hate the 7 I’m a lefty
Great video guys
Awesome bowling Kyle on your first win
I started in a league last week (stand-in bowler, half way through the season). My scores were all over...160-230 range. It depends on how I'm feeling as to how many Strikes i bowl. But one thing I've been pretty consistent at and I tell people ALL the time that ask advice..."Work on picking up spares!". You can still bowl a good game if you close every frame.
My nemesis, the 10 pin. I have a high rev, unusual 2 finger bowl style. I've bowled this way so much that I actually CANNOT bowl straight. I've resorted to a very slow, left hand bowl that looks like a child threw it...but it works 80% of the time, every time. ^_^
2 finger bowler here also. Try slowing it down about 3mph and turning your hand slightly more underneath the ball and see how it goes.
Just one problem. If it's a USBC sanctioned league, that is illegal unless you get special permission from HQ due to disability or something.
I feel like I just watched an Abbott and Costello bit for 10 minutes 😆 🤣
That was awesome 😂
Practice Makes perfect 🤩 in anything
My jaw dropped when the spare was missed LOL!
As a right handed bowler, my ten pin is fine. I have been getting bad at left side of the lane.
When you practice shoot for the 7 pin on your first ball, then the pocket on the second ball. Practice games, score means nothing.
I'm in the same boat. I'm dead-eye on my 10 pin. But my 4 and 7 are iffy. I think it has to do with me crossing my body to get them with my straight ball.
@@stevemahnken2743 This is it for me. I will do some weird cross and completely miss my mark. I don't know if I should hook into the left side pins or throw a straight ball.
I play two-handed, so 10 pins are a bit harder but I still get them consistently. I would really appreciate having the money to buy a plastic or urethane ball because I'm a beginner. 7 pin is real easy for me too.
I stand on the last dot to the right and throw up the first arrow. I throw about 3mph slower to pick up pins on the left side of the lane, its give the ball more time to hook.
Is this frontier lanes? I love frontier
I dunno how trustworthy this is after the PBA Players Championship today 🤣
For real tho, awesome videos, already ringed the bell, and great performance today, Kyle!
Which way provides you the most margin for error?
Where do I get a bowling is life shirt ?
For picking up the 10 I use my ring and pinkey fingers and throw across the lane like normal. I started picking the 10 pin up much more consistent. Went from 60-70% to 90%.
10 pin strategies hand positioning timing for the love
1:45 This moment made me laugh when I really needed it. Thank you 🤕
These are my strategies for converting spares:
For 5, 3, and 2 pins, I use my strike ball to give it a little bit of hook. Same goes for double wood
Since I am right-handed, I use my spare ball at the 6 and 10 pins.
For 4 and 7 pins, I use my strike ball to give some hook. There are times I have used my spare ball.
I can tell you my other strategies in private communications. Missing makable spares are the pain killers.
I throw my spare ball at the left side pins too, but I've been struggling lately with 4 pins off all things. Maybe I'll start trying to hook at them
@@christ9359 Me personally, I always just adjust as needed off of my strike ball for 1-5 and 8 pin.
I was always told growing up bowling by my first instructor is that spares win the game
My hardest spare to make besides some big ugly split is the 10 pin. I try not to think about it as being hard when having to throw at it. It's hard
What causes a constant leave of the 4 pin for a righty and 6 pin for a lefty? Yesterday, I left five consecutive 6 pins on my strike ball.
Ball is driving high. Move further inside to catch a little more oil or throw it a pinch faster either one are the automatic adjustment for house shots
“Oh this is easy... 😂🤪🤣💜
I’m right handed and I use hook to pick up spares on the left rather than going straight at them. Seems to me you have a much bigger margin of error that way. Depending on oil you can through your ball anywhere between 3 arrows and possibly make the spare.
I hook the 7 pin..but I do straight at the Ten pin
Great videos . League team watches them. How about a video on keeping your emotions in check so it doesn't effect the rest of the team....maybe this particular team member will listen to you guys talk about it.....Thanx.
Attitude is everything in sports. Any sport. A team member who's got a bad attitude rubs off (this goes for anything in life, at home, work, on a team, etc). That team member needs to find whatever it is that calms them, and practice it. For me...it's a deep breath. Some people, it's counting to ten (or down from ten). An average player who's got a great attitude and is fun to be around has way more room to be on a team than a great player with a really bad attitude when things don't to their way. I think a video on attitude by these guys would be pretty a good suggestion, i second your request!
The 10pin is my Kryptonite
Hi Brad and Kyle!!! Good to see you're still in the game. I had to stop the vid at 1:39 because I can feel the boredom oozing from this one. However, I can add to the idea that spare shooting and practicing is essential to pull up out of the low 140's and to jump into the high 150's -180's. I got so many coaches now it's insane!!!! I'm confident I'll be joining the tour in 2021. You guys need to win some titles and championships to seem more legit. Just saying. ROFL!!!
4-7-11 is a realy good rule of thumb doing spares.
thats oldschool Rob and it still works for this old guy ;)
I started bowling 3 years ago when I was 11 now I'm 14 and that works for me too
"You wouldn't throw straight at this... but if you were!" lol
I just had a guy comment this weekend about how good I was at shooting 10 pins.
I just bought A 12lb knockout bowling ball, I would like you to do a tutorial on how to throw a curveball with the knockout bowling ball
Is your strike ball the same weight as your spare ball? Or do you recommend going with a lighter ball for spares?
Uei Huynh I have a fourteen pound spare ball, and it hurts me immensely. My other two balls are fifteen, and since I don’t use my spare ball very often, it feels too light when I have to use it. I think it’s just personal preference, though.
I would suggest to keep all your balls the same weight. Your timing will more than likely get thrown off from switching back and forth between different weights.
i just bought a plastic ball for the 10 and due to chronic wrist pain due to tendonitis i chose to go 14 lbs as not to aggravate it. i dont notice a difference
Brian Weishahn like I said before, it’s more personal preference and how we feel. Some people are fine with a lighter ball for our spare shots, whereas others, like myself (although I don’t have it yet), prefer it to be the same weight as our strike balls.
What mark does Brad use on the 10 pin you never got to that
Tow spare shooting by twohanders on short pattern?
Any tips on how to pick up the bucket for a right hander? That spare is my kryptonite!
hook it.
A light strike ball, as long as the angle of attack isn't too sharp, would more simply pick up the spare Brad missed. It's like picking up the 2 / 9 while not missing the head pin. Another spare method that works well and is easier to do is: for anything except the 10 pin Keep the same strike mark and move your approach right or left. One dot right on approach gets the 7 pin one dot to the left gets the baby split. You don't have to change your speed or your release or your ball this way. 10 pin change ball or reduce rotation and move one dot left over strike mark. Give it a try. Old school says to use the whole lane on corner spares, not half ask Norm Duke. I know humor makes disappointment easier to swallow but it can also harmatures
"How To Never Miss Another Spare" -- Should have titled this video: How to *Always* *Miss* Spares. LOL
The 10-pin is my nemesis
How do you throw it straight though?
Do you use a fingertip ball for your spare ball?
Well, I just started back bowling and picking up spares has been the hardest part. But I am getting better. I practice every chance I get.
Which spare conversions do you have trouble with and are you lefty or righty?
Picking up the 10 spare has been the most difficult. And I'm right-handed
@@haynes1776 That's always the hardest for me, since i bowl 2 handed (righty)
Simple enough, just make sure to straighten up your wrist on release, or if you're throwing it wide, you can hook it a bit to keep it in play
@@shaggyrelatable8796 Ok. I will. Thanks. This information will be a big help in improving my game.
@@haynes1776 Just remember that bowling styles are different in each person. If something doesn't work, try something else
Arthur It’s Only Rock And Roll was released on December 19, 2023.
Pete Weber is considered, if not the best spare shooter, one of the best spare shooters ever in the PBA. Hard and straight. Like most people I don't shoot my spares that way, but if you could get used to shooting spares that way, your spare conversion % would definitely go up. I think it's funny that Pete has a "spare" ball because as fast as he throws it on spares I don't think it would matter which ball he used, it wouldn't hook LOL.
Very true but keep in mind, Pete started out as a straight bowler just like his dad and he was excellent at it. So he had the opposite problem as most of us today. While we hook with ease but struggle to go straight, he does straight with ease and had to work his ass off to learn and get good at the hook.
Somebody send me the link to brad miller missing the 4 pin
He missed it in the semi-finals Team competition with Dallas at BOPO...Cost them another chance for 3 straight Elias CUP.....I'll bet Norm doesn't invite him back for this year's team
Whata beautiful BROmance....
#spareball
I run into this issue all the time. I come close to picking up a spare, but just miss it by a board of even half a board, and chop the spare.
Did I hear 4 pin
Rid that goatee and stop shaking left right Kyle, you make an excellent TH-camr
Jesus who did they outsource to to get those opening graphics made? That was some professional level shit.
The Rugrats Movie was released on December 19, 2023.
The thumbnail should’ve been a 4 pin ☠️
Part 2 - w/sleepers. 😁
I move to the right, and shoot straight for the 10 (right handed), but I don't move, for the 7. I don't use a hook ball, but i can flick my wrist, spiraling the ball across the lane, and into the 10. The other night, my ball actually hung right onto the edge of the lane, allllllllllll the way down, hitting the 10, before (Yes, I watched, and it counted, lol) finally landing in the gutter. 😳
I love that you guys don't appear to cut and make multiple attempts to look great.
Love ya’ll but as a Lefty I have to seek other videos haha
I hook at my spares!
For me I Have a hard time hitting my mark Constantly to pick up my spares
When i bowl i have to look at the pins, I suck at bowling if I look at the arrows lol 😆..
Daniel Tigers Neighborhood premiered on January 24, 2002.
Brad needs to learn to never miss the 4 pin. aka the doubles finals you two were in
Why would I want to use my reactive ball and change my throw and not have a plastic ball like the TZONE and just throw it straight with the same form?
Do you use a spare ball that doesn’t hook?
These guys need to simplify the situation. For a right hander and you are bowling on a house shot. You can hook into any spare on the left side and go straight at most spares on the right side. On a pro pattern you almost always want to go straight at any single pin spare.
So if we follow these tips and still miss one can we sue you guys for false advertising? Just kidding guys, thanks for the video and tips!
House shot i hook at everything except the 10 pin. Rarely miss anything
While that does generally work, the idea they're trying to get at is throwing straights works in literally any situation.
Typically sports shots won’t give you as much miss rooms and hooking at certain spares may not work. I bowled Junior Gold (the youth national tournament) last summer and there was one pattern that was really long. I couldn’t get my ball to read to hook at any left or middle spares, and I ended up throwing straight at everything. They are probably envisioning that and it does really work in any situation, as long as you have practiced it emough
@@DeanMcCain Yep. ive bowled on sport. Gotta go straight at spares for that.
Oops Brad LOL
What do I win for being the first poster?
You win the same thing as the person posting 2nd...nothing
I roll my a-sym ball straight and slow down the right side edge og the gutter and it slowly walk over into the 7 pin 100% of the time.. I have actually set it on the ground , put my foot on top and rolled it only with my foot and have hit the 7 pin 100% of the time. I dont have to look.. Walk up slow, roll it like 5-7 mph and walk away. Oil does not matter. I hit it....lol
Did he use a phase 2 to pick up a spare???
5:45 lmao.... the look at his face. Brah. Brah. You move left or right. Have you tried going straight ?
Who try to bowl with the wrong foot in forward
not TOTALLY true about half the lane to pick up a single pin (center) spare...for example the 5 pin...the circumference of the pin is 5 inches (rounded) and the circumference of the ball is 8.5 inches (rounded)...now the here is the strange part...if you measure at the widest part of the ball, you will have a 22 inch target, but i you measure at the contact point of the ball (lane boards), you will only have aprox. a 13.5 inch target...(try it with a ball & pins and you will see)...the difference in measurements is similar to "wheel's paradox" where you can get two different measurements of the same thing
Just hit more pins than your opponent. You’ll never lose.
Read the book "beyond the basics," it goes in depth about why everything we've ever been taught is wrong. Especially why the "3-6-9," is not entirely accurate. I made a chart with books recommendations and spares have become mindless. You have to video tape yourself to find your drift.
