professional bowler do you admire the most?
Someone of you may call him "choke king II", but I think hes a great bowler with a great style, approach, and ball roll/speed/whatever. I think in the near future, you will see more and more and more of him.
This bowler is:
Lonnie Walichek(sp?, i didnt even come close)
But another potential sleeper on the tour is, no other than, Blaise Bedolla. I saw the one TV apperance he made on the 02-03 season, and I was impressed. As a rookie to the tour, give him some time also.

I think noone throws a strike ball like Danny Wiseman.
When I watch him I always think. "Danny never loses, he just runs out of time.
It seems he always struggles to find the shot but once he does he will hunt you down with a strike string.

Parker Bohn III. A close second would be Walter Ray Williams, because he is brilliance: pure, unbleached greatness.

the list is short but distinguished:
walter ray williams, jr.
norm duke
brian voss
parker bohn III
chris barnes

Tore Torgerson
He came into the PBA scene mid-season and still made the all exempt tour despite missing 6 or so tournaments. For that reason alone he has nothing but my utmost respect. I also like his textbook style, he is so smooth and balanced during his delivery.
He certainly has what it takes to be succesful on the PBA tour, so look for him on TV in 2004/05.
Coming in a close second is PB III.....hopefully he will break out of his winless slump this upcoming season.

Being a little guy myself (height-wise, if not width-wise
), I have the most respect for Norm Duke, a little guy with a lot of heart, and a lot of talent.
I also have a lot of respect for Walter Ray and Chris Barnes, great bowlers and class acts, from what I can tell.

From years past Earl Anthony, Dick Weber for talent and class, Mark Roth, Marshall Holman for intensity, Guppy Troup and Ernie Schlegel (sp) for flash", and a few others like Larry Lichstein, Butch Soper, and several more. I was fortunate to have met many of them.
Todays breed would be Tom Baker for perseverance, Norm Duke and Brad Angelo with class and talent, Pete Weber has incredible talent and intensity, Parker Bohn and Walter Ray Williams as well. There are also many more I could add.
As of the ladies, one of the nicest of all times, and still a fantastic game is Cindy Carroll-Coburn.

24 is not my age, IQ, or bowling average, but my firematic number, at least I think that what it is
-
-Parker Bohn III for his ability to repeat shots, and a lefty
-Jason Couch for his ability to overpower the left side
-Mika Koivuniemi for he shows that you dont have to have a ton of revs to score high.
-Tommy Delutz Jr. for his consistency, seemed to almost make the show (or did) almost every event the past 2 years.
-Randy Pedersen for even though he is a commentator now, once he gets on tv, you kinda feel yourself pulling for him, no matter who he's bowling against.

Swallowing a quarter is nothing to worry about.....if she craps out two dimes and a nickel.....then I'd worry.

Theres a guy on my state team thats exactly the same in both style and performance, I agree with you totally.
for me though the top 3 would have to be;
Walter Ray, Pete Weber & Danny Wiseman

WRW, CJ, Duke are my top 3.
WRW and Duke because I ALWAYS learn something watching them.
CJ - because he's new, exciting, extremely talented, and a BR member.

I get tired of Mika after a while.. don't know why, he just doesn't do it for me.
ME TOO... Anyways, my pick would have to be Pete Weber. I just love his attitude, and great intensity. And he can play the lanes in so many different ways, and even in the same game!
