Packy is an excellent ambassador for the bowling that this generation needs. Makes it all about doing fun and challenging things on the lanes.
I agree this guy gives people a reason to want to go out there and have fun. Once you do that and you enjoy it….you’re “hooked” (pun intended)
Anyone that does bowling on youtube helps the sport get traction, mr DTANG is a good example he was what made me got into bowling funny enough watch some random league night videos and i was hooked 2 months ago still a 120 average noob though 🥹
Epic adventures with Packy. My brother bought one, and his hooks/carries, too. The closest I ever came was a 300 with a Columbia White Dot in the 1980's. Wood lanes, too much oil, and that day, the ball wouldn't break 4 boards. Back then, no surface either.
Wow thats quite the game, sounds like you might need to join your brother and get one too!
Did you also have a yellow dot?
You're just THAT DAMN GOOD! Fun to watch as always, Packy!
The Parker Bohn strike graphic is epic. Best leftie in the house that day.
The best lefty ever!
@@TheHouseBowling Earl Anthony is rolling in his grave right now.
Misses 7 pin.... And let me change that one 😂
Left side is walled!
@alex aeikens yes, most of the time the outsides are walled like that
@@andrewsbowlingjourney1311 yes I know it's called THS
Always!!
I bowled a 300 last night with a Brunswick Laser plastic ball from 1994. Lanes were really dry and plastic worked flawlessly.
Is that one of the softer ones? I have a laser that hooks somewhat but when I tried a different one I couldn't get it to wrinkle lol
@@coopergates9680 Mine has always hooked a bit so it may be on the softer side. In my youth I was a 2-hander and that very same Laser was my go-to ball and I was hooking a decent amount of boards with it.
@@laserdisque It out hooks a TZone and Maxim? Probably not an original crown jewel, though
WOW!!! Amazing Perfection!
I just got a Spy to replace my Columbia Yellow Dot Bleeder which got chopped in half by a broken ball return.
If I can even do 1/4 as well as you did I will be happy. :)
Don't forget, Glen Allison shot a 900 series with plastic (Yellow Dot Bleeder) while drinking Crown Royal. ;)
GRATS on that 300 with the plastic!!! I can't throw 300 with reactive and you're out here showing us why you're a pro 👍
Continued success Packy!!!
Just practice, now time to do it when it counts 😉
pro cause he uses 2 hands and they allow it....
@@nickneff6926 you throw 300 with plastic.
@@nickneff6926 jealous much?
@@pamelacass9642 of what.. iv done that with 1 hand..several times
I'd like to see a 1v1 with the Radical Spy and the Black Widow Vis-a-ball. Honestly because I picked up the Black Widow Vis-a-ball for a spare ball and maybe very dry lane strike ball. I didn't know if any other plastic with a core at the time.
The Spy should hook a bit earlier. The cover on the spy is textured while the black widow uses a traditional vis a ball plastic cover.
I like when you include the score screen showing your speed as well.
I bought the Spy as occasionally our league patterns are burnt. I bowled a 278 oob with the Spy. I keep it as the last ball in my bag. Ball hits amazing and I’m an older senior one hander with lower revs.
Man...pretty impressive 300 with that Spy...but the spare ball was not bad, you just had to be dead nut to strike...Great stuff!
When you hook the ball is there a little more wiggle room for where it can touch pins to get strike? Because if not why not just throw straight obviously slightly next to head pin? It all depends on throwing in the right spot each time so what makes a hook work better?
Yes. If u think of the pocket as room for the pins to domino hitting it at a harder angle will statistically give u better chance of knocking pins
Love the energy Packy!
I just picked up a spy because we have above ground ball returns and I can't play the inside line on the right lane. This ball is awesome! Im going to replace my spare ball and carry this instead.
I'm tired of not being able to keep the ball on the right side since apparently oil is at a premium so I picked up one of these balls. We'll see how it does tomorrow night. Great demonstration Packy
They’re great for spares too.
I’m a two hander and before I learnt how to up my ball speed I always used plastic to play right
@@Meowwwwww420 sounds good. I think I'll be using it for them too. If I even have too 😉
Amazing 👍 what was that weight on that plastic?
15lbs
Packy, did you ever find any use for one of these things? I’ve been thinking punching one up and throw it on the dry boards on house, let me play straight without that super early hook my purple gives me. We get so wet dry even on the left in the house I bowl on, I wanna be able to move back left and just trap it a little instead of trying to circle it, which is a sure recipe for getting 9
You are the best bowling channel bro, really makes watching bowling really fun
By best, I mean even better than the official PBA channel 😈
Damn, should have pulled this bad boy out for that "I Bowled Until I Shot 300 | It was TOUGH!!" video.
Anyone else notice he changed the 9- to a 9/?Somehow the 7 pin magically fell 2 frames later 🤣🤣🤣
I only used plastic as my strike ball once this year during practice when I was told they didn't oil the lanes all summer. They weren't lying LOL!
Ya know... I've often wondered why more companies aren't putting a decent core into a plastic ball.
Likely because they think people won't buy them because the industry standard is plastic = spare ball.
But if you back up, plastic used to be the greatest thing before urethane came out... its what everyone used. It would be a great teaching tool for kids too when they transition off of their regular plastic. Instead of jumping right into a reactive, they could go to plastic with a core. More Controllable and allows them to learn how a core can change your balls reaction.
Idk. If you throw the ball like an adult league bowler with 1 hand(like 15-20mph and moderate rev) you won't get very much movement. I agree the plastic balls with a core would be great for some but the other 90%+ bowlers would get zero benefit. You have to be a two hander or someone with a pro release to really make use of plastic as a strike ball. Just use urethane if you want to teach someone how to do all the work.
@@stompingpeak2043 I disagree. Urethane balls do not force you to "do all the work". They have modern urethane composition and modern cores but they grip the lane earlier than any other cover technology so they are smoother on the backend. Plastic with a good core would be a great option for all bowlers on tougher conditions and would be a step down from urethane.
I haven't bowled much in recent years, but I would absolutely keep an advanced-core plastic ball in my arsenal now. Back when I was bowling more, I owned a couple of them (the Clear Wolf back in the 90s, and the Lane #1 Clear Buzzsaw later on). Still have a NIB Ebonite Pinnacle from the 80s - that was one of the first plastic-with-a-decent-core balls that I recall. From what I remember at the time, those pieces would work rather well (and often hit hard!) on a lot of extreme wet-dry and/or shorter patterns, when everything else seemed to be too unpredictable.
@@frankdellorto7035 I'd still just reccomend a urethane ball with a weak layout if you want that minimal movement. Since plastic will not work very well for 99% of people. Or just get a weaker reactive ball.
@@frankdellorto7035 Have you had one of those Ebonite gemstone balls? The core looks more like a dumbbell
Packy, what layout to do you have on that spy and what surface do you have on it?
So I’ve always liked bowling growing up and had every chance to get into it because family friends owned a bowling alley, and recently I just purchased my own shoes and ball what would you recommend for someone who is new ?
Nice game. Radical actually made this ball to compete with Urethane balls.
My first 3 300`s and 2 800`s were with a plastic ball... of course that was 40+ years ago..lol,, Congrats on your plastic ball 300
I shot 289 and 299 in back to back weeks with a columbus black knight ball a few years ago. If i can do it a pro doing it wouldn't surprise me
Wait... i just saw you bowl A PERFECT GAME?!?!?!?!? First time since you you bowled one to win the State Championship for GHS!!! Congrats and SO FUN WATCHING!!! XO nous
Where was this against Beef and Barnzy? Lol nice shooting Packy.
Needed it!! That’s for sure!!
Love my spy, hit it with some 500. Feels great playing up 5 when nothing else works
Well done, that's unreal.
Just curious, why did you change the score on the 2nd frame of the first ball when you clearly only got 9 and missed the 7 pin on your 2nd roll?
he cheated almost all the spares. he edited 7th frame and didnt even throw
Fun video! Nicely done!
That was AWESOME! What kind of layout did you use for plastic?
Packy rocks! I just picked up a Spy ball because of this video. The alleys in this area go minimal on oil over the summer, and I'm aligned with the left gutter with even my weakest ball. Hoping to play straighter with this one.
I bought mine too use in the fresh, yes the fresh playing the Sahara on a house pattern that flat out hooks! I got it with 2k and now it's a great piece in the track area or a step down from my urethanes. I have a ball review video on my channel on it comparing it to a 90s urethane and a short pin reactive.
Thats awesome!!
man that was just insane!!! awesome job!!!
Great job on the 300 packy!! I love watching your videos I love your content Plus you're my favorite bowler!!
I carry NOTHING but Plastic in my bag. Due to age and injury, I lost 6 mph on my ball speed but I still have around 400 full-roller rpm. I have a Radical Spy and a Pryamid Pathogen Blue Dot for my pair of asym balls, but I also carry a Target Zone which I carry as a reserve strike ball. I am still looking for a ball on dry lanes that hooks less than the TZ. [I am debating about getting a pearl urethane, instead of less hook go for a different shot shape.]
This should be The Packy channel.
“Packy’s House” how do we like that?
i'm transitioning to the two-handed style of bowling from one-handed. ive noticed that since switching, i am extraordinarily rev dominant, and i can hook a plastic ball from right to left gutter on a house shot. i used a T-Zone in a college tournament as my strike ball and had to stand on board 37 to strike with it. considered getting a rubber ball so i can learn how to play two-hand straighter until i can find a balance between revs and speed
What's your speed and revs (if you know)
@@elijahpipkin4081 probably around 10 mph with 400 revs, maybe more, it was obscene
@@ell040 I have a 296 with a Brunswick custom LTD. Might still be my favorite rubber so far but I want a roto star RC5 badly
If your speed will stay uber slow, consider an AMF strikeline. For me it rolls nice with friction but when there's oil I struggle to get it to turn over even when I rip the holes out. My speed is usually over 13 MPH.
never looked into spare balls, didn't know some were plastic, a house ball probably isn't the best to try out using a plastic as a spare, but I'll give it a shot anyway, I've just been using my Turbo R as a main and spare ball
I've added the ebonite clear wolf to the "oh sh*t" bag. Used it on rare occasion. 720 is my high series with it lol 😆 😂
I shot a trio of 300 games with the clear wolf over a summer (and averaged 230+). Unfortunately, they were not durable enough and twice I had to replace the ball due to cracking apart in only about 4 months.
I now throw the Radical Spy and the Pyramid Pathogen Blue Dot and both are a LOT more durable. (The anchor bowler on my team coined the term "reactive plastic" for them.)
Cool video talk tech bowling ball radical the spy with dynamic core technology in the bowling ball more strike and spares hitting power at time packy
It is always the ball... almost. The biggest difference between you and me is you can make a greater variety of equipment effective, can get lined up quicker, and make accurate adjustments quicker. So, it is always the ball is a complicated topic. I usually struggle because I am forcing the wrong ball and wrong line to score. Congrats!
Its the ball after you make a variety of adjustments that don't work!!
looks like you have answered alot of questions. I don't no about the lanes conditions but I think you found a ball
Hit ‘em light let ‘em take flight
I honestly didn't expect that, I mean, it's just plastic! lol
Must be nice to have such a walled up shot that even a plastic ball stops at the gutter like it hit a brick wall. LOL.
Just got mine.. 3 practices games with it, this gonna be my best league ball... once the lane transitionned..
It will replace my spare ball, which gave me my best games this year...
Whoooo hoooooo!! Let's goooooo!! Best 2 handed leftie in the House!
I love my plastic. But I really want them to be 16lbs to get that specific hit
I use this as my spare ball. Works great to stay on the lane overshooting a 10 pin.
to think I get mad when someone kicks my ass with urethane. Nice game. My mom threw 300 twice in her youth with a house ball. I have never got it done. I have had several 279 games and a few 700s but this is my year I am going to get my 300 and I hope it is on league. This is my first year back into it after taking a 15 year break and I have a hip that needs replaced. By my last game I cant hardly stay on my slide leg and stay down. I hope to get it replaced this summer. Because I am hooked on this game again like crazy. I go 5 or 6 times a week.
This guy, after waking up in the morning: I wonder how I'll bowl a 300 today?
Me, who's never bowled a 300: 👁👄👁
More like “wakes up thinks he should compares plastic balls-goes to sleep contemplating if he should throw them all the time” 😂
My last 300 was with Brunswick tzone......fun to shoot one with out reactive
Hmmm... counter attack you say?? I believe I recommend that a while back when you were playing with your release cuz of the gap from urethane to reactive balls. I think weaker balls need some attention from manufacturers. Some of us have a lot of hand or use 2 hands. I'd like to see more tech in the weaker stuff rather than just use old basic cores and old cover formulas.
You guys should bowl with upside-down glasses on
Did you put surface on that ball as all?
Ughhhhh lol I heard it the second time around. A light 1000. Thanks.
6:02 Hit 'em light, watch their flight
Any idea why this (plastic ball with core) isn’t used more? I have 2x 300 with widow spare (same concept) and it’s extremely rare to even see someone know this exists, much less use it
Most guys use either a short pin reactive or a urethane ball for dryer lanes. Personally I can see where a core plastic ball makes sense. I have the pathogen blue dot and my GF has the track spare+. Both are fantastic for bone dry lanes.
i always have a plastic ball in my bag for spares. i have mine lighter then regular balls so i can throw it harder and hopefully straighter.
Awesome job you made the Spy look good!
Hey packy what ball do u recommend for an all around ball to start out with
Bowled a sanctioned 300 with a 14lb pink and white Storm Mix. Anything is possible with high rev rate, slow ball speed and thriving on people's complaints and disbelief🤣
Spy vs Mineralite for the grand championship.
Been there done that. 14lb house ball in 2003.
2 weeks ago, “I’m shooting until I bowl 300” …..takes 3 days
Now: I’m just gonna shoot with these plastic balls for fun….300 first game
😂
What layout did you choose for The Spy?
Packy challenge Kevin to spy v spy
Looking for a plastic to add to my bag. Should I get a 14 or 15?
Extremely impressive, even with the asym spare ball.
Would you be up for (if purchased) doing a “comparison” with The Spy and the Black Widow Viz-a-Ball?
Also, any chance you could get one of the Storm House guys to use a Mix against you throwing one of the two mentioned above?
I could try and see but all the storm house boys live far far away!!
@@TheHouseBowling Maybe you could get something going once Tour gets up and running?
How about Brad and/or Kyle? They’re within relative distance (about 2-4 hours), correct?
@@GhostofKaiser Maybe you can convince Brad!!
@@TheHouseBowling I’ll see what I can do.
I have a motiv allegiant sniper in my normal rotation of bowling balls and use it quite a bit
I’d love to see you have a game against Jesper svenson and Jason belmonte
I honestly want to see you try one handed
I have a plastic bowling ball and I did good with it but now I have Brunswick rhino navy purple bowling ball that isn't drilled yet
I remember you shoot 300 with sling shot
I shot a 202 with an alley boll and shoes a couple years ago. Pissed the hell out of the friend I went with, since he was captain of his high school team. Need to get back into the sport, and find my boll and shoes
Took my spy to 1000 popped off 279 and a 730 set
Excellent! You throw a really nice hook! It's just a matter of time before we start seeing you in the PBA finals.
Made some finals, just time to win!
I Spy with my little Eye: Keep rockin' the plastic.
I did throw my plastic spare ball for a game with the guys about a week ago and shot like a 229 with an open in the 10th. not too bad haha
What layout did you use for the Spy?
Dang! now I have to buy a spy!
Sweet. Area with the spy
Any tips for single hand lefties
I shot 278 with a blue dot natural in a no tap tournament (because what better place to throw it in🤣🤣)
Just curious, when you are generally practicing, how many times do you throw a 300?
Not often at all!
@@TheHouseBowling good now I feel better. Thanks for answering. Great channel by the way.
Well done🔥🔥🔥
Ok Packy the viewers want to know................Well we know you MUST have "creative edited" this for sure. lmao! Seriously though, whether it was or wasn't edited (was edited) I will say great editing and thanks for the entertainment. PS: Congratulations..............
Just in case it was warranted. :)
Love my spy I had the front 9
The last 11 and a couple 278/9’s
🔥🔥🔥
I've shot 278 with my old Jeff Gordon Viz-A-Ball before. House conditions where I'm at are so dry sometimes that spare ball from 8 at the arrows out to 5 just walks right back to the pocket.
That’s awesome!!
This is badass!! Always love seeing scores that many cant make happen!! I recorded myself bowling a 299 between my legs on my channel with a few other crazy shots that many cant do. It's always entertaining to see and hopefully I'll be able to get some more content uploaded on my channel cause I'm a lefty as well
Man Packy,
I need a spy now.
That had to feel great
Wadda playa
sigh. *opens wallet*
😂😂
