Video #2 for me
Swinging 3rd arrow.  I think my ball choice for this shot would be the Tantrum or the KE rico drill.

I will agree that lane level makes it really hard to judge where the actual breakpoint is on the lane and truly see the differences in ball motion. Constructive criticism is one thing but everyone on here has been an expert or pro on everything and seems intent on pointing out every little thing that was not perfect in explicit detail. Keep up the good work Ken.
Next video, I would try propping the camera on a chair or bar stool and see if it gets a little better view of the actual reaction shape.

While I will take a little different jibe about it than Drrev2000, I will have to agree with him that much of what I would've liked to have seen was blocked out by some of your footwork.

  I've been very interested in the TANTRUM and have watched closely to any and all info on it.  Hoped for more ability to compare it to the kinetic because I have seen one of those in person and could gauge the reaction difference from that a bit.

  If you could get a bit of altitude for the shot, and maybe even a little different angle, you could give us much more info I believe.

Agreed. I'd love to see more at a better view.

#1-I do hate criticism, but I do take it when it respectful (Thanks Lou, Jug, Fast)

#2-There are not enough videos of bowling balls, people want video

#3-I am using my home digital camera and have never taken videos on it before

#4-I am just showing how the ball rolls for me on a house shot, I am not trying to show my skills (or lack of) on the lanes


Lastly, a couple people replied, that they loved the roll....I did my JOB!!!

Double D, could you link me to one of your videos to give me some helpful hints.  I am a visual learner and I would farther understand your wonderful, insiteful criticism that way.

Ken,

 1. Wasn't really criticism as much as a suggestion.

 2. Yes, people want video, but of the balls and their reaction, not blocked views of the screen.

 3. Video wasn't BAD, just could be better.  Given it's your first, kudos for the effort.

 4. Not worried about your skills, you didn't ask for help.  I too was interested in the rolling differences between those balls on the same pattern, just wished the view were better.

  I was just glad to get a few looks at the TANTRUM in action.

Thanks Jugs, I took some happy pills to calm me down.  I can make it better.  I will make sure the Uprising will be my Masterpiece, possibly award winning.
