2003 PBA Banquet Open: final match: Mike Machuga vs Robert Smith-1

[TheHelixSpirit]

the pin rolls on the top of the ball inside. i'm getting a ball drilled just drawing up a killer layout. maybe relief hole on the other side of the pin. not to sure what regulation is though. i want a x periment ball. oooh put the pin on top the drilling in the middle relief hole on the bottom! drilling put the ring top thumb straight down middle pointed out and up or middle straight up long spread, ring mid to short big hole under. lift with middle or ring not sure yet

they should do drug testing in bowling, because im pretty sure robert smith eats steroids like candy.

The 7-10 split is left probably as often as the 2-8-10 on televsion. The 7-10 split has been made 3 times on television. Has the 2-8-10 ever been converted on TV by a righty or the 3-7-9 for a lefty? If not, I'd say maybe that is just as difficult to make as the 7-10?? Just wondering, I started thinking about that when Machuga left it.

@BowlerScott the 2-8-10 or 3-7-9 can be converted with skill with a back-up ball (and also with luck by bouncing a pin off the side wall), whereas the 7-10 is almost entirely dependent on luck.

[BowlerScott]

That's true, but the probability of converting either seems to be equally low, even considering the 2-8-10 is a split that is more easily visualized to be able to convert than the 7-10. But you made a good point.

@BowlerScott you are gay

[BowlerScott]

Yeah? So what?

[i3enthebowlerkid]

@BowlerScott you just admitted your gay!!!!! LOL FAGGOT

[BowlerScott]

Dude... You obviously don't realize how immature everyone thinks you are because of the way you act on youtube... Nobody likes you. What's your last name, Ben? You always challenge other people to bowl you for money; maybe i've decided to take you up on the offer.

[i3enthebowlerkid]

@BowlerScott okay come to any lane near me and ill bowl you for how ever much you want to put down i live in central ny near Syracuse about a hour from there the last guy that said he could kick my ass at bowling bitched out soon as i said i wanted to bowl him.

[BowlerScott]

That's great, but that's not how this is going to work. If you insist that you've got what it takes to beat whomever, you have to beat your opponent at a neutral site. I live in near southern Tennessee, so we'll agree on a destination between the two states (preferably in the middle) neither of us have been to before. The format will be a best 4 of 7 match. Agreed?

[i3enthebowlerkid]

@BowlerScott sure soon as i get a license cause im not going to be able to get a ride there that will be in 5 months

[jonglifunchow]

derekli04 actually 2-8-10 or 3-7-9 is mostly depend on luck too...

[derekli04]

@jonglifunchow like I said, those can be converted with a backup ball. not saying that I can do it... but it's been done.

[volodenon]

@BowlerScott ya i think tommy jones picked it up on match by deflecting the 2 pin off the wall to take out the 8 pin that went and hit the 10 pin dont remember when but it was pretty cool

[BowlerScott]

I know exactly which match you're talking about, and he came close, but the 8 never got hit... But it's impressive you were able to site that match :)

[derekli04]

@BowlerScott John Jowdy mentioned a few people having some success with the 2-8-10 on TV in a book or article; I can't remember the specifics.
