Who?  Better yet, who cares?
Since the invention of resin and all the 900's bowled these days.....that is just another set that a person was helped with by technology.  Sad but true.  The respect level in bowling is too far down to give anyone credit these days.

Give the guy some credit man. Still takes some skill to hit the pocket that much. Good shooting!

I guess whenever anybody bowls well or wins something, there is always an excuse on why it happened...i.e. - "Easy shot" - "matched up well" - "resin balls" etc.  I was there, it was legit and he threw it awesome.  

Great bowling Erv!

Yeah and I'm sure it should have been 900?  I wasn't there so I don't know.  I'm sure resin played a BIG part in the set.

As I'm sure it does in ANY set bowled since the year 1992 that doesn't involve a rubber, polyester, or urethane ball.  Things are easier now, we get it.  Technology changes in all sports, get over it.

Kinda like you!

Resin has played a part in bowling since the early 1990s, period.

It still takes a lot of skill to be in the pocket that well all night long.  I don't care who was throwing it, or what they were throwing, its still a hell of a series.

Get over yourself Current Exempt.  If you hate resin balls that much, just go back to throwing urethane or plastic.
