And Barnes is quite versatile. He can play any part of the lane. Xtraframe is still free and one hurries he can catch some matches to see how versatile he really is.
BTW, that strategy is not uncommon. That happened to me in a money league.

I believe Barnes strategy was wrong today. At their level it''s more than just bowling their lines. He should have play WRW''s line and not let him use the down and in shot the way he did.

As it was WRW had no pressure on him.
After his third plaque 10, I was wondering if a Freeze wouldn't have allowed him to play down and in, like WRW did.

I think Barnes ran into some carrydown that his pearl was not able to handle on the left lane. Meanwhile WRW was using a strong MB, and a strong drilling on a polished solid AND playing down and in.

You guys dont have a clue to what good ball reaction is if you think that Barnes ball wasnt rolling well. I think Barnes played the perfect part of the lane, but indeed, in a one game match sometimes things dont go your way. Walter threw the ball great indeed but his ball reaction wasnt as good as Barne's was... You could have made this a match play game today with best of 5 or soemthing, and Barnes may have beat him 4 out of 5 games.
As for the people talking shyt about Barnes not being able to win, he has the greatness to be on TV every other Sun. By GOD you must be doing something right in this case.

Plus 1.....he practiced on that line for 10 minutes an obviously thought carry looked good and formulated his plan of attack.
When the lights go on all it takes is a touch of tension in the swing or grip to start dinging corners.
But you NEVER, NEVER completely change things in a one game match. Especially when your opponent has a good line to the pocket.
But I am sure you guys already knew that.
Did you see the documentary show earlier this year where Ciminelli and Duke squared off? Ciminelli started leaving corners as Duke was chipping into his lead and so decided to switch to a resin.
What did Duke say???
"I knew he was done when he switched balls". And that was a multiple game final.

Straighter is greater if that's what the shot calls for.
Straighter is not greater if the outsides are unplayable because they're either too slick or too dry.
Bowling is about playing the lanes the way they should be played (as it suits one's particular game), whether it be from the twig, lofting the gutter cap, or anywhere in between.
In other words, whatever line is getting you to the pocket with a good angle of entry is the way to go (naturally, this requires one to be versatile, and just about all of the pros are, including WRW).
Walter has won several tourneys playing the outside line (perhaps the high majority of his wins), but he has also won quite a few playing more in on the lanes because he didn't have a good look outside of the track area.

Two weeks ago, it was obvious from the first shot against Kelly that he was confused, lost, and he LOST that match. Yes, Kelly would have beaten him in score. But I think that he mentally handed the match to her.
Barnes is the best technician out there. He's got one of the most versatile games out there. Unfortunately, it seems that he thinks his work week is Monday through Friday (saturday is for pro-ams) - and he takes a lot of Sundays off.

the thing with Walter is he is a more accurate player than most people in the world and he very seldom misses a shot when he is at his best
put that along with the fact that he basically always around and scoring well and thats what makes him a successful player
but he has his days especially on longer patterns where his carry sucks compared to guys that actually put some rotation on the ball

Sometimes straighter is greater, sometimes hooking it is better. It varies from pattern to pattern, house to house, lane to lane, shot to shot. Under the TV lights and pressure, anything can happen in one game.
Personally, I think Barnes is the most versatile player on tour. He can do just about anything with a bowling ball. However, I still consider WRW the BEST player on tour just because he wins the most.

Post by: BrianCRX90 on February 15, 2010, 03:47:15 PM
I believe last season the Player of the Year award went to Wes Malott which revs it up 400 rpms and loves to hook the whole lane. The only time you would ever see him play "straighter" is the lanes that call for that or shooting at a 10 pin. To be honest it doesn't matter. If everyone could be like Walter and as great as he is they would be like Walter. The same goes for Wes Malott. The same defintely goes for the versitle one Chris Barnes. Some things can't be taught like natural talent.
Post by: Dave_in_Rio_Rancho on February 15, 2010, 04:47:18 PM
I might add that while power is the most noticed part of bowling, accuracy is the most often overlooked part. The guys that make 99% of their spares usually win a lot of games when it counts.

If you talk to Brunswick and the PBAs lane man about the oil patterns. These patterns are not designed for the straight, lower rev guy. They are designed for the higher rev players.
The way the lanes break down is the ultimate equalizer in the game. They all know how to break down the lanes to favor, or create havoc for each other.
The masters like Walter, and Norm will always find a way to play them. You can only hope to create alittle more difficulty for them.
Alot of what you see on tv, the good and the bad games is a product of what goes on to create good and bad on the lanes. You have 4 guys, with all different strategies. Sometimes this turns into a HUGE MESS, as the World Series of Bowling tv shows were!
Just a FYI, the masters used Kegel machines and oil. I believe the regular tour uses Brunswick oil. I am not sure what machines are used.

There is no doubt that Chris Barnes is the most talented bowler on tour, but that is a blessing and a curse...I think that more often than not it gets in his way. He overthinks it. Yesterday he had a good look, not GREAT, but good. But a blind man could see that his ball was finishing light. Now did he make changes? Yes, I am sure...but see his talent allows him to make such subtle changes that we couldn't even fathom! I think that if he just kept it simple he would be much better. I think thats why he was so great in college, he had a couch to TELL him what to do, now it just seems he does TOO MUCH. Just my opinion.

Not sure what show you were watching...but when his ball struck it went through the 8 pin..not exactly a "light" entry.
I agree with the assessment of him getting in his own way.

Look at Barnes''s first 2 strikes and take note where the ball is located as it leaves the deck...now look @ shots in frames 4, 6, and 8. Note this is after he left a 4 pin in the 3rd. That ball is deflecting through the pins versus rolling through them.

It was also said that Barnes "broke them down" incorrectly by creating a friction spot too far from WRW. Therefore, he couldn't get WRW to move, but he might have in another game or two, if the format was such one. Any non believers - refer to the Go RVing Matchplay Classic. In the telecast, WRW beat Barnes with the front 9 or so, but Barnes eventually won the 3 game set. In a one game match, I'd put my money on WRW. Three or more game set, Barnes definitely.

I saw some of the last match on xtraframe on friday and he used a momentum swing during some of it.
He started the match using a 5.5 inch pin Pure Swing..

The 10 pins where bad releases, he even called them as bad shots on TV.
He makes 2 better shots there, who knows what happens.
I agree with this Barnes leaves were bad releases. On the 10 pins He got shots wide or did not catch all of the shots. He turn the ball on the 4 pin.
Straighter is better sometimes. WRJ was playing the 6th arrow out to 10 in the first block of qualifying. On TV he had a chance to set up the 5 board. I think most of the week WRJ was around the 8.
