Barnes Will Dominate

Look for Chris Barnes to have a monster year now that the Monkey is off his Back. POY award on the Horizon for Chris.

A couple things...

1) aren't ALL strikes from pin action?...
2) How do you know that all his shots come in light?  if you've never seen him in real life, I'd be willing to bet your claim is from the fact that the TV cameras they use for 95% of the shots are to the right of the lanes, so you can't see his ball hit the pocket as well as a righty...I've seen shots were on the normal camera it looks light, but if they switch to the back-view, it looks solid.

Anyways, as the concensus goes I expect PDW to have a good year.

idk maybe it is the cameras, but it always looks like his shots hit the pocket low, but about all strikes are pin action, i mean he has  A LOT of pin action

I'm lookin for Tim Criss to have a very successful year.  I have watched him work on his game and I think his hard work is going to pay off.

I hope Wiseman does well.  After the Masters he seemed to be struggling a lot with some of his equipment.  If I read right on the PBA boards, he was going to be altering his pitches for the upcoming season.

I LOVE Danny Wisemans game...always have.

As I always say about him....you almost never beat him....he just runs out of time.

That guy can find a strike string so fast it's incredible the little tweaks to his roll he can make!

He's comin at you with a strike string...you be ready for it!

REgards,

PS Tony REyes...seems like a really nice man and I like his bowling.  TO win on the PBA tour....ah not so much!  I'd rate him in the Jason Hurd bunch...any win will be totally an unexpected event.  Down instead of out level to the lane!
PPS I also expect Wes Malott to win a couple ....I really like his game!!  BIG!

Pete Weber deserves the title of POY more than any other. I think he will give it a good run for as always.

This will be the year of Tommy Jones.  He'll win at least four times with two majors.  Best shot maker on the tour at this time.

Maybe, I was wrong.  He might win five or more times.  This guy has everyting going for him right now.  At this point, there's nobody better on the tour.

Yea, he choked alright..lol. Would rather choke and get $10,000 than were the rest of the field except for TJ and Wes were. Must be nice to choke on that kind of placing. What a gonad you are numberone....

SAme technique problems I see every time.  Shots screwed down in to the lane...or a stiff knee and twisting the body outside so that the arm crosses a touch and ball wheels high.

The same problems I have and I see all the time in leagues but with a much stronger shot!!  (more revs and more speed).

This guy is great but these same technique things come up every show appearance!

I hate to say I have an "eye" for this game but from above!

 I LOVE Danny Wisemans game...always have.

As I always say about him....you almost never beat him....he just runs out of time.

I really like how level his ball lands on the lane and even though he doesn't have the lateral control of Barnes(projection angle) he lands that thing so quiet you can't even hear it.  Projection ...revs, speed and extension from a deep knee!!

He'll win at least another this year!  I expect a little cool down now!

REgards,

Luckylefty
PS I thought he was so close to a foul on one ball....ehhhhh!
