Best stylist to not win could be Brian Berg.


Hey Ric, I am with you on Brian. He drilled my balls back in the early 1990's. Seems around approx. 1994 or 1995 was about the last time he drilled balls. Quit the pro shop business and went elsewhere.

Dave Arnold has won right?  Anyway if he hasn't that guy is a stylist and still bowls in the West Region.  I know he's made TV a number of times.

I think around 3 titles. I know he won in 2001 when the new PBA started up with the bracket format..defeated Roger Bowker.

Glad to see someone mentioned Joe Firpo.  That guy has a golden armswing.  I've met him a couple times, and he's a god guy off the boards too.  He won a doubles event with Del Warren, and he came close with some TV appearances in the 90's (there was a tournament he lost to Phil Ringener on a crushed-solid 9 pin that is most memorable to me).

Kenny Simard has a really good looking shot that is hard to appreciate unless you've seen it in person.  Solid at the line, a ton of revs.  Really nice and hard to criticize.  Otherwise, he's a jerk.

Richie Wolfe has got gold in his approach.  Solid.  I've talked to him between squads a few times and he's really a nice guy when you get him off the game as well.  I can't imagine he's going to go forever without winning a title.

I'll remind you that the title asks about bowlers who have never won a title.

Parker has 31 titles to his credit.

my bad, but still the guy has the smoothest game. There isnt to many good looking forms that havent won a title. If you look good most have a title. Im not saying there isnt some bowlers but most have won a title that I know of.

I have a vote for Joe Firpo.  I have bowled with him and he does bowl in my league on Wednesday Night.  If you go to LeagueSecretary.com go to Georgia and then Atlanta Fun Center, there, you will find 2 well known names to the bowling world.  Joe Firpo and Lisa Wagner.  It is so cool to be in their presence and have the chance to pick at their brains a little and hear the stories of when they were on tour.  BTW.....Joe IMO is smoother now than when he was on tour.

Another guy I just thought of was from a few years ago was Blaise Bedolla. Backswing like 80's Pete Weber and an amazing release. Made 2 shows in 02, then didn't make the exempt tour and I don't think is bowling regionals full time.
