Two handed is much harder to be accurate with all that rev rate and ball speed. i bowl both ways and one handed is much easier to be accurate. Jason couch is a butt hole. without 2 handed bowling the sport would be dead. period.

what was weird ?? weird is watching Rash, Weber and simonson not being butt holes.

It should be "thumb in" and "no thumb" rather than "one hand" vs "two hand". On Facebook, Jason Belmonte posted a picture of him bowling but his right fingers were still inside the ball with his left hand away from it with the caption "Look Mum.... 1 hand" EJ Tackett commented on the photo stating this: "You know I’ve had many arguments with folks about this exact thing and my point is where is the statute of limitations? Technically I start with 2 hands on the ball too and my left hand just comes off the ball earlier than yours does. So are we all 2 handed or we all 1 handed? 🧐😎 out of current players I know of Breanna Clemmer is technically the only true 1 hander since her entire delivery start to finish only has 1 hand on the ball. So, just bowl in a way you can enjoy the game and gives you the best results!!"

The bottom line is one handed or two, if you aren't good enough to win, you won't. If you are, you will. Wow.

Yes rash bowled good but belmo out bowled him

I don't care how you throw the ball down the lane two-handed one-handed kick it down the lane you still have to get a strike😂😂😂😂😂😂

Back to back player of the year has been done by 7 different players. Belmo was 40 years late to be the first. Gotta check those facts a bit better.

Osku actually made his first show in 2004 at the US Open. It’s absolutely worth a watch for how people didn’t know what to make of it.

I remember when throwing with 2 hands was illegal…and you can’t say it doesn’t have advantages when the kid who started in high school, throwing with 2 hands was on the PBA tour and almost winning within 4 years

Two handed bowling is illegal - in my not so humble opinion - because the thumbhole isn't used (or drilled into the ball). PBA rules required a bowling ball to have two fingerholes and one thumbhole. Nobody thought to add any language about using the thumbhole because it was understood that it would be used. It's kind of like me handing you a pair of shoes - must I tell you to tie the laces when you put them on? Well, the precedent was set when Mike Miller didn't use his thumbhole on a telecast. He even shot 300 swinging the ball this way, without the use of his other hand. It isn't bowling and never should have been allowed. Thanks for listening.

I'm a one hander and I've learned something from two handed bowlers that actually made me better because they remove the traditional approach but finish the same

I'm a great basketball player and an Ok bowler. I figure if you can shoot a basketball with 1 or 2 hands then why not a bowling ball?

Technically, the ball is released using only one hand by the so-called two-handers. The other hand supports the cradling of the ball until it is released on the downward swing. A two-handed release will require both hands to roll the ball, but that is not the case. Hence, all bowlers are one-handers.

Honeslty from what I saw over the year is some start 2 handed specially kids if for the big hook cause it looks cool. But I tried it and it's not easy. Plus I don't like the restrictive feel. Bowling 1 handed I can flow and take my time to the line.

correction Osku first event was the 2004 us open

If Packys throwin I’m Watchin! Great personality for the PBA!

A channel called OneHandBowling, talking about how 2 handed style changed the fame forever. Yeah… this won’t be biased…..

Could Belmo or Simo win one handed? First prove you can win one handed before going to two handed bowling! This craze has reshaped how bowling was suppose to be! Because of two handed, even ball drilling has changed! Everyone wants to win like Belmo & Simo, that's why they go two handed! More revs, more hook power!

You can't use 2 hands to spin in Foose ball. It's obvious they are getting twice the revs. Should be banned! Not impressed! Oh wait the Yankees just signed a 2 handed pitcher! I made the hall of fame the real way! Beat Norm Duke the real way in 1994. I was 14. Bob Benoit style is acceptable, and Tom D is acceptable. No more kangaroo hoping! Greatest bowler in the world is not Belmo!

Osku made the US Open show in 2004, his first TV Show was not in 2008. The guy you were thinking of from the FloBowling documentary is Chuck Lande. Jason Belmonte did not win the 2010 Tournament of champions, that was Kelly Kulick, and did not win the 2011 US Open, that was Norm Duke. Belmonte also was not the first player to win back to back POY. Walter has 3 peated in the 90s. He also did not win POY in 2016, that was EJ Tackett. and EJ Tackett did not win POY in 2018, that was Andrew Anderson. Osku did not win the WBT finals in 2009, that tournament did not exist. Osku did not win the 2012 TOC, that was Sean Rash. Your videos are mostly really good, but this one is absolutely horrible. You should do actual research before you do these. To me, it seems like you used AI assistance and just assumed it was all correct before actually researching. Please be better.

The biggest misconception of 2-handed bowling is that many people really ask or think that we throw with both hands. The answer is no... That extra hand is our thumb because of the angle our bodies are when we throw. Without it, the ball would fall. Really, it's no different than the 2-finger, underhanded, 1-handed bowlers I see more of than 2-handers. Except, we can get lower to the ground. I'm 47 years old and changed to 2-handed 5yrs ago after the wrist and hip started becoming an issue after so long. Changing over was not easy....and it didn't give me an advantage. I averaged a 216 one-handed.... and after 5yrs since the change I am just over 200. The revs might be more, but I feel that there are more mechanics to keeping consistent with 2-hands compared to when I threw 1-handed. One thing I will say, most can't believe I am a 2-hander at my age and can get low like that.... but... it has GREATLY taken the stress off my body and I am rarely sore the next day after a tournament weekend compared to 1-handed. I used to not be able to move my wrist or even spread butter on bread after a weekend when I was 1-handed.

2-handed bowlers are virtually never as accurate as 1-handers, and yet they are able to succeed nonetheless in today's game. That's because the game, even at the professional level, no longer requires the same degree of accuracy in order to score. Moreover, the dynamics of ball technology and lane conditioners and patterns (and their manipulation) gives 2-handers an advantage. The game could reel this back in if they wanted, but apparently don't care. I personally find the men's game much less interesting to watch than the women's game because of the absurd excess valuation of power over accuracy in the men's game.

Osku made the 2004 US Open show and bowled WRWJ.

I started bowling with 2 hands when I first started at 9 years old. Went to one hand as I grew up and stronger. 😂

2-Handed bowling only is as strong as it is on tour is because of Bowlero. The PBA puts out the softest patterns that are designed for power to dominate because that's what drives ratings. The only two events that really value shot making are the Masters and the U.S. Open and those are both USBC events. Put out sensitive, tight patterns and you'll see the power advantage dissolve. The best two handers will still find a way, but it won't be strictly due to power.

What I found: there is no speciffic rule how the ball has to be thrown. "4a. Legal Delivery: A delivery is made when the ball leaves the player’s possession and crosses the foul line into playing territory." Source USBC Playing Rules.

I have been bowling since 1979 (45 years) so I know what is going on. Two handed is more powerful and will be the dominant method for men from now on. Back in the old days of wood lanes two handed would never have worked so it didn't arise. But the advent of synthetic lanes, powerful balls, and finger grips changed everything. It was only a matter of time until bowlers figured out how to take advantage of that. Here are the core rules of bowling: 1) if you don't knock down all the pins on your first shot you get a second shot to try to get them all, 2) you can't go past the foul line, 3) you can't go when it isn't your turn, 4) your ball can't be heavier than 16 pounds. That rule system was written to allow two-handed bowling. If you can succeed by standing backwards and throwing it between your legs, that is Ok too. Bowling is both simple to understand and very discreet eliminating contentious calls like pass interference.

I thought the idea of the game is to knock down pins so who cares how you release the ball?

The big problem with the pba is they aren't trying to limit the advantage of going two-handed. You can switch to one handed for spares which is really not that hard to do. Im not against two handed at all their are just some clear ways to make the game fair for both sides but they ignore the clear advantages that they give. Also look up weight holes for bowling it gives more context to the situation

My argument is that now the average house shot is being set up to accommodate two handed bowlers, at least around here. 15 years ago, and still throwing the same today, I was considered a cranker. I'd swing the ball from 16 to 3 on an average night to t the pocket at around 17mph. Throwing the same ball, with the strongest equipment, its more often 7 to 3 which qualifies as a stroker. When they oil up the lanes to combat two handed bowlers it's tough to generate power unless you have the pros one handed revs. Yes I can still consistently get to the pocket, but now I leave many nine counts instead of striking. If you move inside, the ball just skids down the lane.

I tried two handed bowling back in the early nineties. Didn't care for it. Been one handed since.

I'm a one hander, but I really don't care if someone uses two hands or not. You could throw the ball between your legs for all I give a damn. Look at Walter Ray Williams JR. Greatest bowler of all time and he even uses two hands sometimes. That's a great tool to have if you can throw it both ways effectively.

It will be ban in the Olympics if bowling ever gets in ? I would like to watch a repeated shot of a 2 hand player to see if the other hand generates more rev's power and so forth. If this is allowed then why cant we have the side hole back in the ball and so on.

it doesn't matter one or two handed, both can be legal, BUT if every bowler on tv is two handed, i will switch it off or fall asleep, it is so boring so lame

"why doesn't everyone do it" is not a valid excuse. Yes sometimes the release is only one hand but usually it is NOT because the other hand is helping to rev the ball and can also be seen often.The very obvious is that IF it is only a one handed release why are people calling it two handed bowling ..lol.Everyone starts with both hands on the ball and we don't say everyone is 2 handed bowling. 2 handed msot certainly creates more revs it is not even debatable I have tried it and yeah I can create a ridiculous shot. I have recently gone over the RULE and explained why 2 handed is not and should not be considered a legal shot. I can point to the previous great before Belmonte >>Walter Ray he has recently been going to two handed shots when he is struggling to carry because he KNOWS it creates a better striking ball but nothing guarantees accuracy or consistency.

2 handed is a 2 handed release. But it is legal either way. The idea that "it leaves your hand in one hand" is fallacious, because you are using the off-hand for support, power, and spin up to a few milliseconds before release. But again - it doesn't matter. You can literally line up 3 lanes down, throw the ball overhead like a soccer throw-in: this is legal. You can kick the ball down the lane. Also legal. You can head butt the ball down the lane. You can roll it down your chest like a dinosaur roller. You can butt bump it. All legal. There is virtually no limitations on the way you can deliver the ball down the lane. Check the USBC rules on it. The question is not "can we." The answer is "should we?" My answer is this: Bowling is done with one hand. It's done with one hand in lawn bowling, in cricket, in bowls, in bocce, in duckpin, candlepin, 9-pin, it's how it's been done for 5,000 years. 2 handed delivery of a ball is a definitely a skill, but it is not bowling as has been recognizable for millenia. It's a different sport in the way that rugby is a different sport from soccer. And I gladly troll the shit out of the PBA facebook every day I can to remind them of that.

I’m more impressed with pba players like EJ that have perfected the one handed style/release to the point he has just as many or more revs than a majority of 2 handers.

Still release with one hand

Two-handed bowling took over because it allows for the sale of more bowling balls. Period. The lane conditions have been altered to favor two-handers. They put more lane conditioner on one lane now than they used to use for an entire 32 lane house. I know. I've been a lanesman and bowling mechanic since 1972. We used to apply the lane conditioner by hand with a spray bottle and a foam roller. It went 18 feet. Two-handers couldn't keep the ball on the lane if they did that today. Asymmetric high performance resin balls couldn't sell if they did that today. What used to be a game where accuracy and consistency were key has become a game where speed and revs are key. When you have the greatest champions in the history of the game retiring or moving to the senior tour because they can't carry, it tells you all you need to know.

Just a league bowler. (66 years old and I suck), but have a good time. Im wondering if...2 handed bowlers will become 1 handed later in life. It appears to be more stressful on the back muscles. Im just wondering... that's all. No biggie.

I dont know if anyone would agree with me on this, if 2 handed bowling was not a thing the interest/curiosity towards bowling would be almost halfed in todays context. There are so many youngins out there that only started bowling because of the 2 handed exposure. 2 handed bowling has brough back a psuedo revival in the numbers of people actually heading to a bowling alley

I bowled one handed for 2 years and recently switched to two handed. I can confidently say that bowling two handed is a massive advantage. I’m definitely more accurate bowling one handed, but having the revs to be able to play every part of the lane and play urethane effectively has been a game changer.

3:12 Sean Rash using two hands. 8:09 another two hander The difference isn't whether you use two hands or one, it's whether you start with your thumb in or out of the ball.

I have had surgery in my left hand, which happens to be my dominant hand. I physically cannot hold the ball with one hand anymore, so I had to switch to two handed. I love bowling 1 handed, 2 handed is only easier for me because I am taking most of the weight off of my surgery hand.

1. Consistency 2. Accuracy 3. Power This is how it ranks in order of importance as far as bowling is concerned. And you can be extremely successful in bowling if you only have the top 2 and you're a very bad bowler if you only have the 3rd. The funny thing is 2 handed bowling gives you tons of power and makes consistency and accuracy much harder to achieve. So when people complain I just laugh.

It’s like tennis, to the eye and as a fan I do not enjoy watching two hander backhand players. Same as in bowling but it’s totally legal at the end of the day is about taking down pins

whats the background song?

You all must don’t remember the old saying “Two hands are better than one”.

Two handed is two handed. If it wasn't it wouldn't be called it. Though it may not be illegal it by far creates pin carry that is not possible for the majority of one handed bowlers.. Maybe the question should be how do we even the score between to two style of releases. Or maybe the game splits and the two styles don't compete against each other.
