« on: September 25, 2007, 03:44:22 PM »
All the bowlers on tour are excellent competitors, but who do you think has the best/worst:

Approach/Form:
Best: David Ozio or Parker Bohn
Worst: Jason Couch or Walter Ray Williams

Release:
Best: Pete Weber
Worst: Brad Angelo

Finish Work:
Best: Billy Oatman or old school Pete Weber
Worst: Riga Kalfas (So serious...)

Overall Personality:
Best: Parker Bohn
Worst: Dale Traber

Most 'powerful' Player?
Robert Smith/Tommy Jones

"Straightest" Player?
Norm Duke or Scroggins

Most Versatile?
Tony Reyes/Norm Duke

Best all Around Bowler?
Tommy Jones

What do you guys think?

I'd put Pete closer to the top of almost any "best" list.  Anyone that wouldn't give a finger off their non-bowling hand to have his game hasn't watched him bowl enough.

What the heck do ya mean by finish work?
--------------------
Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Salnicker with the Southern Cal Bowling League, and I just got a, an informal report, that a member of your team, uh, Walter Sobchak, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true of course, it contravenes a number of the league's by-laws, and article 27 of the league...

This poll is dumb if your going to include previous touring players.

No mention of Danny Wiseman? He only has the best timing on tour and an awesome release.
