I like how during the game they act all tough and serious but immediately after the perfect 300 they're all smiles and hugs. Like, "who cares who won, this was awesome bro". Sportsmanship is greater than rivalry.
To have thrown one myself, it takes some luck too. You can smash the pocket perfectly and send pins flying and be staring the 10 dead in the eyes unphased in any given frame. I've shot god knows how many 279/287's and 3 or 4 299's throughout the years and all it takes is 1 flippin' pin to ruin that perfecto 300. Even with Cooley's, he had luck kicking the 4 down on a shot he threw wide and shouldn't have struck but he did.
I lost my arm in Iraq in 05. Then I had vessels removed from my other arm that same year. My remaining arm was very weak. As therapy, my doctor suggested I find a way to strengthen it with hand exercises and light weights. One day I decided to go bowling because I could use the lighter kiddie bowling balls to start and it wouldn't put to much of a strain on me. 6 months in and I was using much heavier balls and feeling strong. I developed a spin and it became consistent. 1 year and 5 months after my surgery I bowled a 248 and I still get happy thinking about that day. I haven't been able to eclipse that mark but gotdammit, I'm a bowler.
Thank you for your service and that is an amazing story of perseverance and determination. Have you thought about making a UA-cam documentary about your journey to share with other veterans who might be in a similar position? I think it would be very inspiring and I would be first in line to watch the premier.
@@pedrorodrigueziii4859 it's because siren's have a very high frequency to them, so it can be irritating to a lot of ppl, especially when the sound the rest of the broadcast isn't close to those tones.
Last ditch effort to distract Cooley enough to not get a 300, to maintain the difficult standards reputation of the PBA. Imagine if they blared that with Pete Weber bowling instead of Cooley. For sure there would have been a homicide in the audio visual department.
for most their nerves would get to them but he literally had his best roll on the last one for the 300, it was like a 99% accuracy for the "ideal shot" never bowled but i watch clips every now and then so this might not be crazy but to think he had the perfect ideal shot on his very last bowl trips me out
The secret is to never look at the score. Don’t think about it at all. When I bowl I refuse to look at the TV. I know who I bowl after, and that’s it. They literally have to tell me when it’s the 10th frame because if they don’t I’ll go sit down.
A very good friend of mine is a scratch bowler and has always dominated the local leagues. He bowled 299 11 times over several years before he finally got his 300.
I would actually like to counter that. The smile makes him look like a serial killer. Them people are usually pretty charismatic. He looked like he was on Thorazine before the smile. 😂
Speaking of stone 9 pins, when I started bowling back in the mid 60s, a man I consider a great junior coach Bob Blackley in Sacramento taught us the perfect strike ball takes out only 4 pins. The 1-3-5-9 (or 1-2-5-8). I’ve tried to always live by that and has always worked well for me. He also taught us that any spare, save for straight across splits, can be picked up by the shooting the 7, 8, 9, or 10 with minor variations of each angle. These principles have always worked for me. 😊😊
I didn't even looked at the title, I was just looking for Bowling video and I was getting excited every time Cooley gets a strike since his opponent just spared. This was awesome!!!
@@Cadaverine1990 nah I wouldn’t agree here. There are often many times where a different shot can be played depending on the course. So different strategies are required. Thus, commentators can often educate and enlighten us on what’s happening and what the player is trying to do. Can’t say the same for bowling and darts…
Hell yeah! Mad props Sam. As a former semi pro bowler, to stay that poised, humble and just living in the moment is a whole other level of concentration. Congratulations! Beers on Sam! 🍻
It's all about meaning business and staying serious...my coach worked with me on learning to tune out the nonsense and just focus and I did for many years and was carrying a 210+ average in 3 leagues and shooting 700+ was cool but nothing I got uber excited about after about the 10th one. Never threw an 800 series and doubt I ever will since my bowling is much less frequent now and happy with having a 787 being my high. Best thing is I did happen to nab a 300 and get a ring in my peak.
Cooley's focus is crazy. Someone could stand next to him while he's sitting, and fart in his face and he'd keep staring straight ahead, eyes on the prize. Glad he smiled though. He's human! Congrats Sam.
Valeu UA-cam por me indicar isso, não sei como vim parar aqui mas assisti até o final. Nunca vi uma partida de boliche na vida e assisti logo de cara uma perfeição dessas. Boa Sam
So cool to see a 300 game ! the mental pression on the guys who make only some spears of difference and the one who could make a perfect run ! Really cool to see this match.
the 300 alert is my low glucose alert... it went off and i was like wtf, i know my glucose shouldnt be low... too late my adrenaline was pumpin. nice game, awesome 300!
LOL Sam Cooley smiled. :-) hilarious. Also, If I was cohosting with this guy when he said, "he can stare a candle out",,, I would of fell out of my chair laughing.
I remember when I was first introduced to bowling. My grandmother took me to a place in Roseburg Oregon called Indian Lanes. Such was where I cut my teeth. Righty bowler, one-handed. I learned quickly about form and tempo, spin and angle control. My favorite way to get strikes were the similar way Sam was hitting them. Straight on the front pin. Of course, gentle angle so as to agitate a spin out of all of the pins for the cascade. At this point in my life, I would have to retrain to bowl lefty. It's been many years since I've bowled. Mostly been disc golfing.
I learn more about the World with the UA-cam Algorithm than in class: Volcanos, Bowling, Snooker, India's Caste System, Luge, Chess, Nayib Bukele, K-Pop, Driving in Russia, train accidents...you name it: I've seen it.
I enjoyed this, seeing a 300 game is rare for me. I am used to watching pro bowlers win with scores that many of the better bowlers at any local lanes bowl consistently. I'm not one of those guys I just enjoy bowling.
It would be nice to see bowling make a comeback - it was so popular in the 60s-70s. Kids, especially, need more 'hi-touch' and social activities. I was in leagues junior high and high school. Over 200 was a big deal for me!
BOWLED A 300 once in my life. Went to a after work bowling get together for fun. Hadn't bowled in years. Let's just say they were super impressed. Never did it again. I usually bowl around 200
Really good game between Andre Agassi and Bob Ross. Bowling brings all kinds of people together.
lol

Lmao bowling commentary always has ESPN The Ocho vibes in the best ways.
I’m new to bowling, can someone tell me when Bob Ross went pro?
It was a happy little accident
Kyle the man
He faked his death to do so....
Actually he changed his name to LUIS PENA aka violent bob Ross, currently in the UFC, and also just got arrested, bob took an ugly turn
Look at those lonely little pins.. I'll paint a little fence all the way down the path..
It’s 2.45am and I had this recommended to me for absolutely no reason so of course I’m watching it
If a white guy has an afro, there's a 9/10 chance that he's a bowler. The other 1/10 is a painter. It's science.
Bob Ross came to my mind! Lol
You forgot that one guy being a burglar
Pretty little accidents 🤣
LMAO!!
Probably an oil driller.
Baseball: Never mention a potential no-hitter
Bowling: 300 hype the entire second half
Could you imagine a damn alarm sounding off before the pitcher takes the mound?

Damn, so close - only 9 frames away!
Sounds like me every game
I almost won the lottery, but didn't happen either.
I opened with a 5 bagger once. To this day after 10+ years, i still havent bowled a 200 game. That should give you an idea of the horrible choke

May be the best bowler I've seen Yet in my life..

I love Cooley man. Dude don’t need to talk he keeps his mind on the money and let’s his game do the talkin
Cooley is like a calm evil supervillain. I die laughing every time I see that smirk on his face after he gets a strike.😂
I like the fact I knew he got a 300 before watching the video. It wasn't nearly as stressful... LOL

While Kyle Troup won $100k for winning the Playoffs, Sam Cooley won $70k. $60k was for being second and an extra $10k for the 300 game.

1. Bob Ross
2. You just got Jam'd
Those two are great and awesome comments DeadlyBladesmith
"Do you even lift bro ?" 😂😂
"we've seen a 7 10 split and a sam cooley smile" i love sam cooley so much, just the best
The way he put his hand up in victory before the ball even struck reminded me of Larry Bird in the 1988 3 point shootout.
Or capt Lou when he thought he won manager of the year 1977

Such a tense game !! Well done Sam, but also well done to Kyle who bowled flipping well too! Great game!! Amazing skills.

A perfectly drilled ball makes that happen.

the 300 alert is my low glucose alert... it went off and i was like wtf, i know my glucose shouldnt be low... too late my adrenaline was pumpin. nice game, awesome 300!
First perfect 300 game I saw was Pete Mccordic in 1987. Love the strikes that are "buzzer beaters". I've been watching the PBA since I was yea-high.
That was Awesome. Check out the First Televised 300 by Jack Biondollillo.

They are all like that game. Usually they both hit 300, and it takes 3 tie breaker games before someone does not hit 300.

So Marv became a professional bowler after prison.
