Chris Barnes technique.....
« on: January 05, 2010, 12:27:10 AM »
I believe Chris Barnes is better than ever.  

No more scrunch at the foul line his fairly new long flat spot and beautiful set of fundamentals are better than ever!!  Is it Mark Baker that he is working with?

I believe soon because of his tremendous ability combined with GREAT fundamentals the balance will start to tip in his favor with more wins than loses on TV.  As soon as HE starts to realize the tremendous spread between himself and the rest of the bowlers!

Regards,

Luckylefty

I have not heard that!  I just don't see the ball being squeezed down into the foul line and saw lots of natural loft coming from a long flat spot.  Which did not exit in the past.

Really???  Have you never heard of Walter Ray, Earl Anthony, Norm Duke, or PDW.  Barnes may have a load of talent but can not be called the best.  Case Closed.

I would say Chris Barnes is right up there with PDW, Duke, WRW, and any other top bowler.   His talent is unreal..  I mean imagine how many titles, Duke, WRW or any other bowler would have if they had his game...

Not saying Duke, WRW, PDW or any of them are not GREAT, but its like you always see, certain guys excell on this pattern or that one, when Barnes can bowl lights out on all of them..

Duke and WRW kill the down n in shot

Mallot, kills well almost anything but the cheetah pattern.  

And PDW I think I've seen him make the TV finals on almost everyshot they have, now.  

I do think Chris' mental game is what kills him, not sure why or what is going through his head but, if he'd just stop thinking and "do" he'd probably be better off, jmo...........

i know he doesnt squeeze the ball but it may appear he does...he has prob the tightest thumbhole on tour...and i understand you are not saying he squeezes the ball but i think the downward motion is need to get the ball off his thumb thus the ball going down into the lane soon...just and idea

Barnes is the best bowler in the world. Ask any bowler on tour and they will tell you the same thing.

It's called being humble. First we ask WRW who's better him or Earl Anthony?

He says Earl. We ask WRW who's better, him OR Barnes? He says Barnes. He's

just being nice about it. They all are being nice...WRW, PDW, Duke...If we

keep asking them enough times, they'll go from being the greatest bowlers of

all time, to bowling hacks! You can't really go by that. If they say they're

the greatest, then we call them concieted!
