    I'm reading a lot of comments that are just burying this guy saying "no way he's a 210+" when I can almost guarantee half of this comment section (including me) hasn't bowled against a PROFESSIONAL BOWLER and been recorded at the same, with each of your throws either being critiqued or complimented; I would be just as nervous if this was me. cut him some slack and enjoy/learn from the video.

      Insanely walled house shots help a lot of terrible bowlers get to the 200's. Throw it with decent revs to the right side of the lane and you're likely a 200 bowler. And more revs equals even more margin of error for terrible bowlers, which is why 2 handed got popular.

      For one thing, the kid needs to learn to bend his knees. He's standing super erect and dropping the ball on the lane at the foul line. If you are a true 210 bowler I bet you don't do that. This kid looks like a 180 bowler..maybe.

    • @mobysteve
      @mobysteve Рік тому +3

      I think the guy needs more knee bend and a little more spine tilt. His ball goes KATHUD! when it hits the lane. His release is also poor. As a two-hander, Darren’s ball hooked more, it shouldn’t be that way. He is not getting under the ball properly. He should watch Packy’s most recent video on that.

    @Jordan_Lee0298 Рік тому +1

    I picked up a 6-7-10 split when I was about 15 years old in league one Saturday. It was the most impressive spare conversion I've ever made, and I wasn't even thinking I'd make it. I was aiming for the 6-10 pins, thinking I'd only get 2 out of the 3. The 6 pin kicked out and shot across the lane, kicking out the 7 pin. It was very difficult to convert on, considering I'm right handed and the right side of the lane is where the majority of the pins were at. I had a stroke when I was 9 years old back in 2007, so when I started back walking again, I got into bowling. My highest ever game was a 243. I bowled 11 strikes in a row (not all in the same game). I've bowled 1 other game besides that over 200, and it was a 210. I haven't been able to bowl in the last few years on account of my health.

    200 avg bowler don't miss spares as picking up spares is the most important skill to have. He's definitely a 150 avg bowler.

    Im a 2 hander, i would reccomend for him to try and get a bit lower, drop the right arm and get yhe ball lower to the ground. It will help with his control

    You can tell he was very nervous the whole game. Maybe he does average 210 on a regular day but going against a pro and knowing people are gonna see it has to feel different

    Regardless of average or status as a bowler, bowling is a game of luck. Anyone who's bowled for any length of time knows that just because you nailed the approach, backswing, release, follow through, hit all of your marks, and even hit the perfect pocket shot, that doesn't guarantee a strike. 3 weeks ago during league play, I left two pocket 7-10 splits. I bowled badly enough I dropped my average from 214 to a 198(early in the season). I raised back up to a 204 the next week though so I was happy. All I'm saying is this, anyone can win on any given night
