Considering the last time I pointed out that 220 posted a video that was similar to packy, he said and i quote "220 stole my idea from private conversation" Lolol.
i can already see a perfectly round lathe turned wooden ball, holes drilled to fit, with The House logo burned into the side. Sanded to surface, or veneered to a shine for length.
As someone who's used a lathe BRIEFLY (less than a month of real usage) it probably could be done? getting it to be perfectly round i can see being a challenge, but better than this would be quite easy If someone with significant experience is here please tell us lol
I love watching yours and 220s videos when you guys do like different challenges. To me it shows a true love for the sport to be competitive when the lights come on and have fun with it during off time with variations. Great content!
I had never seen a wooden ball until this past July. I bought a Madness while on vacation and was blown away by the inventory in the shop. I was given a tour of the shop and shown an undrilled wooden ball that was made before the standardization of ball size at 8 1/2". If I remember correctly, 8 1/2 became standard in the 1920's. This ball was 7 1/2" or 7 3/4".
Ya know they have a golf tournament for only wooden clubs. Louisville Golf is still producing them. I actuly bought a set 20 years ago and they performed pretty well. I still have the laminated wooden putter. The clubs themselves were gorgeous. Why not a wooden ball tournament. That would be great❤❤❤
@@TheHouseBowling I know this is an older video, but what if you made multiple balls out of different types of wood? For density and weight comparisons.
Poor? Good!! Ever since he captured his first PBA title, he's turned into an entitled douche bag. With that attitude, he'll NEVER win again on tour. Love the idea of new concept wood bowling balls!! Good one...
"Before the Brunswick Mineralite ball was introduced in 1906, bowling balls were made of wood, specifically lignum vitae, a durable hardwood made from trees native to the Caribbean and South America. Rather than a rubber core, these balls had a nearly solid wooden one. The two halves of the ball were held together with wooden pegs"
My daughter found a wooden 2 hole bowling ball in her basement. Now I have it. It's not completely round, there are some chips out of it, but it is an antique!
Yes! You should try it again, but with a freshly made wooden ball! I’m sure you can find someone with a wood lathe to make one! See if you can challenge 220 with personally made wooden balls 😂
Im a woodworker, and after watching this video im brainstorming the best way to make one. Pretty sure it would have to be made in two pieces then glued up, there aren't a whole lot of great ways to mount a perfect sphere on a lathe and you really don't want a 15lbs chunk of wood flying loose at 1000 rpm. Maybe i should make one and send it to packy 😂
If you can make it out to the Dayton, OH area, I have pins you can try to shoot at...I have 1 set of 10 Brunswick Kings (wood) and 2 sets of Magna Pins (Titanium) circa 1960's I believe. These pins are LOGS. The scoring will be low and I'd love to see you make a video on them. I'm sure Jerry @ Thunderbowl (Englewood, OH) would totally be up for a match! Hit me up!
Kameleon could make it for you I’m sure. We have two different designs that are similar. Check in with them and tell them I was wearing it, I’m sure they’ll know how to take care of you.
As wood worker I have thought about making a wooden bowling house ball a few times. Wood is porous and it soaks up oil. The right right kind of hard wood it might could do pretty good. I wonder if my would freak out if I threw one. It might be a fun challenge to see who could make Packy the best ball.
When I was a kid in the 60's, our bowling center had many two-fingered house balls. Rubber, of course. Hey, Packy, why doesn't Brent bowl on tour? 250 average, 899 series, I think he's good enough.
That was super fun to watch. Wow I love the idea of a wooden bowling ball tournament. That would be amazing Can you imagine???? I know the ball was lopsided but what regular bowling ball might you compare it to? A white dot? Hard rubber?
Good job… However, I think it is hard for you to compare your game to 220’s game because your ball is obviously heavier than the one he used, and his ball was definitely smaller as well 🤪 I don’t remember it might’ve only had one hole in it as well lol who knows
awesome!! 220 always has crazy stuff.. probably already been said, but packy could play shaggy in the next scooby movie!!?? or at least off broadway musical. Packy/Shaggy close enough!!??
I personally think an old style all rubber bowling tournament for the PBA would be cool, that and a tournament they use a modern Canadian 5 pin/Duck bowling ball on a 10 pin tournament.
you say they are rare. but it probably wouldnt be to hard to make them new just need somone who is half decent with a large lathe. and have some mid sized stumps or logs id love to see this done with some fresh wooden balls im sure back in the day that ball was significantly more round than it is now. and i think it would be cool to see it done with diffrent types of wood
Mad props for shouting out 220
Facts
Considering the last time I pointed out that 220 posted a video that was similar to packy, he said and i quote "220 stole my idea from private conversation" Lolol.
Dude throws it like he invented wood bowling balls and Packy throws it like it's a purple hammer lol. Love it.

There has to be someone out there with some talent in a lathe to make this happen
As someone who's used a lathe BRIEFLY (less than a month of real usage) it probably could be done? getting it to be perfectly round i can see being a challenge, but better than this would be quite easy

There are sphere jigs for wood lathes, it can be done.
Might just have to be done!!
@@TheHouseBowlingcollab with Frank Howarth to make a wooden bowling ball. His latest video is making a giant sphere from spruce.

How to make EVERY center look like the Petersen? 2 hole egg shaped wooden house balls. Awesome.

I want a 220 House collab
Need it!
@220avg the gauntlet has been thrown down
I want to see you guys make your own wooden bowling balls to spec xD
That would be good!
@@TheHouseBowling I know this is an older video, but what if you made multiple balls out of different types of wood? For density and weight comparisons.
I was worried about broken fingers, or at least dislocated digits. Love the show Packy.
Thanks!!
I was sure the ball would get stuck in the ball return and they'd have to send someone in the back to fish for it.
That was a good look from the left, that wood was looking a little purple 😂. Great video packy
It hits like a hammer
Really enjoy the appearance by Brent.
He’s hilarious!
These two..Forrest and 220...what a 3 game match..bowling and banter 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎳🎳🎳🎳🎳🎳🎳
Everytime i see my home lanes i get so excited! Love to see you coming to newton more!!
love the idea of making you own bowling ball, please do that for me Mr.Packy
Loved 220's video and this one, Packy you guys are great! Please make wooden balls and have a tournament. That'd be actually insane
Might have to try and get someone to make my own now! 👀👀
More Bowers in videos. Y’all are hilarious together.
He cracks me up just watching the video again 😂😂😂
Brent is super entertaining! You two have a great chemistry!! Challenge 220 AVG bowler!!!
Serial number is 1 lol
Only you Packy! Good show.😱
Poor Packy getting another L ( just making sure someone said it ), but srsly the idea of new Wood Balls and having a tournament with it would be dope
Another L on the channel!
Packy got shelled!!

What’s funny is I started to make my own wooden bowling ball before 220 Average even made his video. Now I gotta finish it.
How wood you put a weight block in a would bowling ball?
Might be the best ball to use at the Petersen Classic next year! 😅😅😅😅
So do we get a live wood ball match with 220 average bowler? Yes please?
Yes please
They tore down a 6 lane house near me about 35 years ago. They found a few dozen wooden bowling balls in the basement.
"Gotta pay for Elizabeth's daycare!" 😂
😂😂 add $40 into that fund!

That was a hilarious video.🤣 Great job guys!
I can see Storm coming out with a "WOODIE!"
love Packy, love 220 💞💕💋
Have u used particle cover stock bowling balls yet?
Call Brunswick! We need new wooden balls for a Wood Ball PBA championship 😁
That would be awesome!
Yessss make your own wooden ball!
Check the hardness in the morning! 😂
Packy it's just like a house ball. Right from the gutter hit that dry amd get some hook. You have a pro mentality 😂.
200 easily if I played left out the gate!
@@TheHouseBowling I agree.

@@brentbowers300 thank you
Wow! A Joe Falcaro special? Let's get ready to RUMBLE!! 🤣
Yeah Packy you should have went with the pin up ball. Lol
That was cool

I wonder if my would freak out if I threw one. It might be a fun challenge to see who could make Packy the best ball.
My favorite videos are the ones that involve Brent the clown. Waiting for the ball drop in the background or the towel throw.
And by clown I mean funniest bowler/entertainer you have on your channel to do these challenges
They should make perfectly round wooden bowling balls and have a tournament it would be interesting to watch and with 3 holes no core either
That ball bounces down the lane like a frozen turkey! *HEY!* _Frozen turkey bowling?_ It might get a bit chewed up in the ball return.
Cool video talk tech bowling bowling packy
What ball cleaner will you use? Pinesol?
Is that the one 220 used or is it different.
I wonder if the ball was originally round but got warped because it's wood. It is over 100 year old wood
I’m sure it’s warped over time!
220 SHOUTOUT!
Now we need collab 🤤
That's the ball I'm going to bring to my tournaments lol
Imagine the looks if you put a wooden ball,to specs,on the table for inspection at Nationals.😁
When I was a kid in the 60's, our bowling center had many two-fingered house balls. Rubber, of course. Hey, Packy, why doesn't Brent bowl on tour? 250 average, 899 series, I think he's good enough.
We need a part 2 with you throwing down the first arrow
I loved how your opponent throws a strike while you are half under the floor still fiddling with the ball return
The new TRE-X3 from Roto Twig, buy one today!
😂😂 roto twig!
That was super fun to watch. Wow I love the idea of a wooden bowling ball tournament. That would be amazing Can you imagine????
I know the ball was lopsided but what regular bowling ball might you compare it to? A white dot? Hard rubber?
Dang
Day 1 of asking if you guys can collab with 220
I double dawg dare you to throw the wood in your next tournament 🤔😬😶
👀👀 don’t make me!
Good job… However, I think it is hard for you to compare your game to 220’s game because your ball is obviously heavier than the one he used, and his ball was definitely smaller as well 🤪 I don’t remember it might’ve only had one hole in it as well lol who knows
Ask Keven, we have a couple of wooden balls at Sunshine Lanes!
awesome!! 220 always has crazy stuff.. probably already been said, but packy could play shaggy in the next scooby movie!!?? or at least off broadway musical. Packy/Shaggy close enough!!??
I'm yelling at the computer the whole 1st half of the game "throw it off the left corner!" I would like to see a whole game from there.
Eastgate FTW!
I personally think an old style all rubber bowling tournament for the PBA would be cool, that and a tournament they use a modern Canadian 5 pin/Duck bowling ball on a 10 pin tournament.
220 vs packy in a 1 on 1 with a wooden bowling ball that would be epic
LOL @ every Century. 😁😁
shoutout 220avg for pioneering this idea!
Props to Lane management for not have a FREAKIN' COW when you put your hands in the spinny, mutilaty bits of the ball return
I def want to try a wooden bowling ball so bad now😂
you say they are rare. but it probably wouldnt be to hard to make them new
just need somone who is half decent with a large lathe. and have some mid sized stumps or logs
id love to see this done with some fresh wooden balls
im sure back in the day that ball was significantly more round than it is now.
and i think it would be cool to see it done with diffrent types of wood
I had hope until the 9th 🥲
It was looking close!! Now it’s your turn to go back at it again!
Huge Packy fan but in his challenges its more fun to figure out how he will lose the challenge.
😂😂😂
Ive got a pretty good condition B.B.C Co wood ball.......serial number and company name still visible but ive never had the balls to try and throw it
You yolked that first shot!!
I wish you were competing with Mike on this video!
No Muffler Newton! You know The Car Wizard? LOL
YES!! make a wooden bowling ball.
Wood ball on wood lanes next?
Might need it!!!
They need to remake a near regulation wooden bowling ball. One with a core and maybe round.
220 bowled a 119 with the wood ball.
Got him by about 20 bowers got him by about 60
thumbs up for the funny
Am I the only one that thinks that ball should be in a museum and not getting used? 😅
PACKY! I can tell you gamblin often. Don’t get Phil Michelson greasy lol.
Lol I don’t hahaha
Did some bowling collector sell his collection recently. 😂
Haha I just bought mine on eBay 2 fridays ago!
The serial number for that ball is 1. 😂😂
Where’d you get those?
I bought mine off eBay for $194 little pricy but we’ll worth the video 😂😂
@@TheHouseBowling alright that’s Awsome!
packy you should do a video of you doing two handed with thumb vs you two handed without thumb, cause you have already done 4 fingers
What camera do you use?
Need a Peter Brown collab to make you a custom wooden bowling ball
I wonder if the ball is to egged to come back
Looked a little runny down lane
You guys making your own wood bowling balls with something for the core . Awesome Idea
Remember the plastic ball tournament? Pba should do a wooden ball tournament.
I spoke too soon, that's what I get for commenting during the video.
that guy just YEETS the ball
What’s the layout on that
I know ur Brunswick but this video inspires a new ball scent from storm Pine-Sol
I need that for Saturday jrs
Neeed it😅😅
first time i saw a wooden bowling ball
