Who is ready to have a PBA bowler of the year season?
« on: August 03, 2009, 02:13:40 AM »
Ok everyone,with the PBA season starting Tuesday,what bowler do you think will have a massive year and win bowler of the year? Also what bowler do you think my take a big step backwards and have the
worst year of their career? Is their a bowler that you think may lose their exempting after being on tour
for more than five years?

Tommy Jones -POY
Walter Ray Williams-Backwards
Mike Edwards or Jason Couch-Losing Exemption

POY = Jason Couch / Robert smith because i think the patterns this season will lend themselves to power (e.g. the scorpion is much slicker and robert smith has the mixture of insane revs and rotation which gives room on scorpion) and maximum bob is the king of power and jason couch can then dominate his side of the lane. also robert and jason are now coming off their injuries with confidence.
big step back - danny wiseman because he is running a huge event streak without a title and he has practically lost all his confidence.
losing exemption - ryan shafer

I have been going with Tommy Jones since 2004 and this time I am not. I don't think he has lost it at all but it is obvious he is not the same consistent bowler he was. This is what I was afraid of potentially being a power player and how long it could last. Obviously not old or done at all and hopefully I am wrong because he is one of my favorite to watch.

These things are hard to predict. So I'm going with a random and outside pick and going with Michael Machuga. I think he has all the tools and think this will be his breakout season.

What do all the crystal balls say about PBIII?  He had a big slide at the end of last season and didn't start off too hot.  Potentially going down hill?
