Whats up with PB3?
« on: November 20, 2007, 01:11:03 AM »
Has he made match play this season? Seems like a quiet season for him.

I wouldn't call him over-rated, he's won 30 titles, he was 6th in points and made 5 TV shows last year.  He's a very good bowler.

I don't know what his problem is this year, but no, he's not exactly lighting them up.  Maybe he's got the injury bug that's going around.  He needs to get going soon, though, or that $23K I paid for him won't seem like much of a bargain.

With the exception of PA at the Masters, none of the lefty's have done much this year.

Actually, if my memory serves me right; Rhino Page is left handed. He has been bowling great. Is he left handed though? I really don't remember.

PBIII is great and nobody can deny his achievements

and yea, stupid thetruth is goin to ignore list, este tipo de idiotas no se merece que yo le preste atencion

translation, this kind of dumpf doesnt even deserve my attention
--------------------
When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Rhino is a lefty - He's only 26th in points, which is 2nd best among lefty's on tour.  PA is 9th.

Lets not forget that Rhino is 26th in points and is not exempt this season.

PB3 is not overrated.  The guy is in a bad luck streak now.  I remember seeing him on TV last year and seeing how he was unlucky not getting the carry to make more strikes to beat opponents, or getting bad breaks in the last frames of match.  PB3 has one of the most consistent ball releases.  He hardly ever misses his mark.  Just bad luck has plagued him recently.

I'm not taking anything away from Rhino!  Being 26th in points and having to bowl your way into every tournament via the TQR is awesome!

I was just stating the lefty's, as a whole, haven't done well so far this season.

Points position:

(partial list)
PA 9th
Rhino 26th
PBIII 43rd
Mike Scroggins 45th
Billy Oatman 61st
Jason Couch - injured

Let's not forget we're all of four events into the season, too.

I think a lot of the lefty's got off to slow starts last season too and turned it around after the mid way point.

A little help from the lane man?  That's another debate.  LOL!

Lefty's own the west coast swing it is well known, when they make it out west it will be lefty time again.

But for all the leftys to be that far down? The only one to make the round of 32 was a qualifier?

41  Billy Oatman      
44  Mike Scroggins        
50  Parker Bohn III    
51  Patrick Allen      
63  Mark Scroggins  
64  Riga Kalfas

To be fair, Merrillville has been an absolute lefty killer over the past few years.  In three tour trials that have taken place at Stardust II, not a single lefty has advanced out.  Billy O and Parker were on the same pair during the round of 64 this week, and their look was absolutely awful.  The outsides were extremely touchy, and moving in seemed to be just as bad, if not worse.  I didn't catch where Rhino was playing.  And you all saw what the right side had to offer on TV...
