Parker Bohn lll style
« on: August 12, 2016, 09:31:51 PM »
What does it take to play the lanes like the great Parker Bohn lll? I'm seeking ball and release details. I understand lane conditions can affect these details but to generalize, playing up the 5-10 boards, do we look for High RG vs Low RG, High Diff vs Low Diff? Coverstock prep tend to by lower grit or do we need some polish to keep it from breaking early or burning up when on the edges?

Okay, while this has been entertaining, this topic has probably been hi-jacked enough.  Poor Mr Harris is getting a bit upset and someone should open a new topic where this banter can be continued.

But its on any oil pattern from my 600 revs I get so many revs I can not see the ball's colors, logo, or bridge.

It's no wonder you only avg. 184. With a manly 600 revs, you must be spraying a hell of a rooster tail of oil onto the next lane. So the left lane starts to dry up as all of it's oil is sprayed onto the right lane, which is then sprayed onto the next lane over.

I imagine bowling on the pair next to you is hell... halfway through the 2nd game the oil must be running off into the gutter from the flood on the left lane (due to your overspray), while the right goes throgh a normal transition.

Have you considered putting a splash guard on your ball to help keep the oil on the lane you're bowling on?

Does this have to do with everyone quitting the league since you joined? That could have something to do with it.

no one quit the league. At times I annoy the higher avg. bowlers, and make the lower avg. jealous.

I don't know about the rest of you gentlemen, but I can no longer endure reading 2handedvolcano's nonsensical/jiberish. Put a fork in me....I'm done!

I get the annoyed bit.

Don't buy the jealous about your butt crack part.

I am Special Olympic certified and  becoming a USBC RVP in September.

You understand that "USBC RVP" is only a background check.
