First of all, higher rev players, it seems like, use milder equipment and have to be more accurate... and low rev players can use stronger backending balls, which in turn gives them more area on the lane in case they miss a little wide, then the ball recovers and comes back to the pocket.

Does anybody else see it like this???



Thanks!

How many of the so called "accurate" low rev players have the courage and accuracy to play the 2 board? That's a phenomenal entry angle and carry percentage even for a low rev player IF you are accurate and consistent enough to hit that shot.

You got a whole dry board to miss on outside since oiling machines can't oil the one board. And if you tug it a board you will probably cross over and carry brooklyn due to the run away angle.

Yet how many low rev bowlers claiming they have to split boards to strike do you see playing where they have 3 boards to strike or at least leave a very easy spare? Talk is cheap...

Norm Duke is a phenomenal bowler who can do a lot of different things with a bowling ball, but I'd call him a tweener before I'd call him low rev. Of course what I had in mind in my post was your typical 8 rev dump it in the track league bowler, as opposed to pros. The Traber brothers own the twig and of course Walter Ray can play out there with anybody.

It does not matter if you are a high rev, low rev or tweener bowler. What matters is repeating shots and the accuracy to make 95 to 98% of your spares. Those are the guys (or gals) who win tournaments.
