« on: February 12, 2006, 03:59:19 AM »

jason couch is at 350RPMS now from his CATS at kegel and kenny simrid is a tour trail bowler with 600+ RPMS and TJ is 500+ from his CATS but his are going down.

Kegel training center is the way to go....

I really don't know who it is now but when he was on tour Kelly Coffman had highest rev rate according to C.A.T.S. or so I was told. ..Dave D.
--------------------
Experience and experiment, two great ways to learn..


It's in an article Kelly Coffman did not have more revs than Robert Smith.  

Robert Smith has the most revs of anyone on tour period.  He also has a lot of ball speed on the right condition.

No, because Chuck's rpm rate isn't 2000.  It's so high and unmeasurable that they just refer to it as Chuck Norris.

No, that was just a rumor.  Because it's obvious that Chuck Norris never leaves tenpins.  The real reason he was banned is because he didn't even bowl.  He would tell the pins he would roundhouse kick them if they didn't go down, so the frightened pins fell before anything happened.

Nice to see someone put in Ken Simard. I saw in Louisville back in 2003. WOW!!!! Obviously Robert Smith is still the Man Stud when it comes to revs. Also dont leave out Patrick Girard. Benoit last year on Brunswickinsiders.com talked about how high his rev rate was. Also I have a video of Kelly Coffman throwing a Ebonite Turbo X back in 1995 pretty impressive for back in the day. Also one to not forget is thumbless Mike Miller.

I second Chuck Norris, after that probably Robert Smith.
--------------------
Chuck Norris doesn't bowl strikes, he just knocks down one pin and the other nine faint.

Just for the record...it is not impossible for a league bowler not on tour to have a higher rev rate than some of those that are on tour.  That is as asinine as someone saying that in order to hit a golf ball 280, you have to be a tour player.  One other thing...I saw Rudy here in Atlanta a couple weeks ago. His rev rate has got to be low to mid 500s.  Kelly Coffman had the highest rev rate during his time on tour.  But, I still think that Robert Smith from what I have seen, heard, and read, is the leader in the clubhouse.  He is known to be at 720.  HOWEVER...he was told that he needed to tone that number down in order to be competitive on the tour.  That is why he is at 540.

Tom Daughtery has to be in the high 500s and even 600s on some spare shots.  Does he not count since he uses no thumb?

I keep seeing and hearing this 720 figure for Robert Smith.

The facts as I once knew them were about 3 years ago Jimmy Keeth went to Kegel and Robert Smith had been there and recorded in the low 600s!  Very impressive.
Jimmy amped a couple up to about 720 and was crowned new champ!

Maybe Robert has been back and re amped.

Jimmy Keeth sadly as stated here passed away at a young age near this past Thanksgiving.

I believe he typically bowled in league near the 600 rpm range!

REgards,
