can you critique me please?
« on: March 22, 2008, 04:28:37 PM »
hi, my name is tony hysong, and i am a new user here.  ive heard about this website before and checked it out here and there.  but i wanted to post a video and have some people tell me what they think of my form, and anything the can see from the video.  well to let you know i am a full roller, i bowl in 3 leagues at 2 different houses.  my averages are 216, 212, and 206.  i am 20 years old and have been bowling since i was about 15.  my high game in league is a 299 and high series in league is 763.  well here is the video, sorry for the quality and the fact that it was cosmic bowling.

Def. need a better video. No one can see any ball motion on the lane or anything like that which is important and the camera guy doesn't have a very steady hand. Someone might can tell you some stuff but it doesn't really mean anything because they are not going to be able to tell alot from the video.

Aaannnnnnd, cut.

Let's try that again, only this time with the lights on, some naked women and lots of explosions in the background.

I was getting a headache just trying to watch this video.  I cannot bowl at all during that cosmic time.

how did the full roller thing start?

A half ten is not a great shot.  No, you shouldn't have carried it.

people think i do and i guess i try to a little.  but to the guy who asked how it started, i was tryin to create more hook a couple years ago and i changed my hand position when i was starting my approach and it was more comfortable and somehow thats what i became.

WTF?  You want us to critique that?  How bout this, your video was on a candle light f-ing shot, dude.  You suck.  Hows that?  You show us one shot & you lucked into a strike. Now get a life.
