@Monopoly35 And why was bowling more popular during Earl, Jim, and Don's time ??? Mostly because the development of technique reigned supreme. What changed it? The BPAA takeover of the USBC and their efforts to replace artists/technicians with equipment selectors. Now this is the way they hope to create interest.
the only reason people normally don't do this is because he threw it past the point where the wood softens and he is destroying the wood. This is easy as hell even with a 16 pound ball.
Eh... I work at a bowling alley and can throw a strike from the furthest back set of chairs behind the approach with a hook. Throwing a ball from 3 feet in the air from 20 feet behind the foul line and still getting a strike is a bit more impressive than that imo.
bowling balls absolutely bounce, Ive dropped many balls on the floor, or thrown poor shots and the ball bounces when it hits the lane, or the floor. In fact theres actually a term for it when a bowler throws a bad shot and the ball bounces on the lane, we call it a double dribble
Back in the day David Letterman did a running gag of throwing things off the top of a tower. He scared the shit out of himself when he dropped a bowling ball. He thought it would shatter. It bounced.
They're made out of rubber/plastic. So they bounce. A bowling ball that doesn't bounce isn't a bowling ball. It's just a rock.
@Alastor1977 The lane is made out of synthetic material. It used to be made out of wood, but they changed it later on.
@IsaacBickerstaffEsq You hardly ever find a bowling ball made out of rubber any more. In fact, many bowling balls are made out of a reactive polyurethane.
That Chair Is 6 Ft Down the Lane Because Its Behind the Friggin Arrows On Loft Any Further the Lane Wouldnt Register Properly Becuase I Have Bowled On Those Lanes In Vegas
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What? Please tell me you know how to use proper grammar you idiot. It's you're, not your. I love when people try to belittle someone but don't even know how to spell correctly. Get bent.
@Apatt14 No it doesnt,it wasnt that far in the air,and its not that heavy,its a little heavy they just been doing it so long it looks like a feather to us,although i have to use 10 pounders haha
Heh, I know what he meant but it's a frustrating use of the wrong word. I see it too often nowadays. If you were to take his words at face value, it looks like he's blaming the floor for not trying hard enough to get out of the way.
I tried that today... got my ball out to about 4 or maybe 5 feet past the arrows and yeah... your right it did bounce once pretty good. you wont see too many people able to do that shot over a chair... only in my dreams would i try that over a chair
i can't understand how do they make that ball spin soo fast to make it turn right or left???this would really help me to finaly get trought 200 point mark :DDDthats my record :DD
