Thanks

Thank you. Yeah, that ringing-ten is annoying. Same can be said for the 7-pin as well.

Yeah, they just reciently flipped them. I like this side better.

You would be correct. Tried learning how to use my thumb, just can't seem to clear it from the ball. I do use thumb for spare shooting as I pretty much throw straight shots.

Thanks 👍

YEP 😀

Just was in a slump. I go through cycles like any other bowler.

Just hit a slump for a little bit. As for the rates, it's not bad. Kinda a bowling desert here. Next nearest center is Riverside Lanes in Laughlin which is like a 35 minute drive. Havasu Lanes is next at an hour drive.

I know, I like this side better. Been asking for months to flip them. I will try and get in and bowl under regular lighting so you see the real colors. Hope you enjoy your trip to Vegas soon.

@@Greggys10Pins awesome!! Yep, I fly out on the 26th

@@PinDominator Let me know if you want to do a collab if you got time.

Not sure what you mean by that.

Considering this place has been in business for 77 years and still uses above-ground ball returns, it's vintage. It is what it is. I'm not the owner, don't know the reason why they went to string.

I had to look it up because I'd never seen it before, but string based pin-setting has been around since 1963. If this place's system is that old, I'd call that 'vintage'. String setters are much cheaper than the fully mechanical systems - the equipment is like 1/10 the cost, they're much more reliable, cost of repairs and parts is minimal (tangles and most repairs can be resolved by anyone), and no need for heavily trained techs to fix them, and the electricity costs to run the machines is also minimal.

@@kindablue1959 Cheaper doesn’t mean better. Switching from Free Falls to Strings is like you don’t know how to fix your normal car or too lazy to set up your Halloween Decorations and the stupid solution you got is go buy a Tesla or Inflatable Halloween Decorations. Free Fall Pinsetters are reliable as long as you clean and take care of them, otherwise its your fault for neglecting them. Strings have been been only used for 5 Pin and Rubber Duckpins, that’s why they’re “vintage” that way. Bowling Pins aren’t made to have anything attach to them ever since Tenpin Bowling first existed

@@PinoyBowlerGS92 I never said it was better. But cheaper to the alley owner could mean the difference between staying in business or not. I've read about the cost of maintaining the fully mechanicals, and it's much higher - you often need to hire a trained tech to do the work, and there are like 10x as many parts that wear. And as I said, their monthly electric bill is much higher too. I don't own an alley, so I can only go by what's commonly published. The pros and elitists can argue about the experience differences all they want, while the non-pros in a small town can still have some fun.

At times its a bit too much, but it is what it is.

First time getting tangled for me.

That's USBC's problem to deal with.

This is Nevada so not humid, just 115 in the summer. But yeah, I worked on A2s and the summer heat just swells the pins just enough to cause the 5-pin to not drop can jam the deck.

Thank you so much. Nice to know I have locals following along.

Yep...not a fan of the string pins, but oh well.

*face palm*

Not sure. I mostly bowl by myself with these videos.

@@Greggys10Pins can you check one of these days?

@@JRBowling1997 I saw the option when I signed in to the screen I did. So I assume you can.

As much as I would like to argue this topic...USBC certified them and just going to have to deal with it. I wish they would have done a lot more research, but it is what it is. I love my freefalls.

@@Greggys10Pins #freefalls4life !!!!

@@fishntyme8495 No argument there.

Oh, I agree. I have seen it numerous times. Watch my videos from Starlite Lanes. Got multiple issues there.

I've worked on A2s. Nice solid pinsetter.

I think the heat had something to do with it.

I will correct myself along with you. These are actually 98s because when this place opened up, the Xs haven't been out yet. These are also frankensteins because they have parts from all of the GS series (minus the NXTs) Talking to the head mechanic and manager of this place, they are really 98s.

I assumed 96s because I know what a 92 is like. This place opened before the release of the Xs. So I was down to either the 96 or 98.

Yeah but GS-X has black pin holders. and also see how the cups are grayest that’s how you can tell it’s not a GSX if that makes since.

@@twentyonebilliardsad3075 Yeah, I try to look for little things like that. I will also just ask if I'm too unsure.

@@Greggys10PinsI also notice this with GS92s they normally loads all pins on 2nd ball unlike the 96 does and places has the 96 and 92 normally had the metal poll above the sweep broad is what I also noice with the 92 and 96

Lane had oil but it was pushed to the backend, which doesn't help any of my two strike bowling balls.

Could be, I am unaware of the league and oil schedule of this place.

There was oil out there, it was mostly to the backend though.

@@Greggys10Pins Ah.

@@InsaneKorean77 Yeah, also probably need to get the one ball resurfaced as well. That might make a big difference as well.

Didn't really have any problems here. Yeah the lanes were a bit dry, but I tried to adjust the best I could. Once I start a video for the series, I stick with it.

If you heard it, you could hear my ball rolling over the finger holes, tells you I flattened my hand just to get it down the lane.

No I couldn’t tell really from all that noise but yeah thats is way to do that

Oh, there would have been a major swear so loud I'd put Pete Weber to shame.

3 times, just no video record of it.

That is not the ball I'm throwing. Also, I did mention it was really hot that day and the AC wasn't keeping up very well. Wondering if the heat played an effect.

@@Greggys10Pins Ahhhh, when I looked at your other videos I realised it wasn't. Still, though, the fact it's consistently dropping 4 pins is concerning for this centre.

@@Greggys10Pins so what ball are you throwing with?? I’m sure that’s what ZlueTheDragon meant

@@travy268 Pretty sure I'm throwing the Honey Badger Extreme Pearl. It's pretty much my go-to strike ball for most centers.

Looks like the Eternity Pi

Honey Badger Extreme Pearl

Yeah. Not a fan of the Steltronic system. Took me forever to figure our how to enter my name into the scoreboard here. At Cerbat, they put it in for you.

Think it's around to stay. I've been bowling like crap lately. Might need to get the one bowling ball re-surfaced and see if that helps with anything.

I'm not either. Too much whacky stuff happens and I often question why they got approved for league play.

It's a risk with these family fun centers. I do know they oiled earlier that day.

Because of the cool video masking units? 😁

They have the pink Brunswick Max pins. I do know that half the deck light was burned out.

Yeah, when that came up I saw it as a nice opportunity as an homage to the old star-shields.
