212,179,240...630 series.. Happy overall.... A few opens tonight sadly, with a 4 bagger in first game and a 7 bagger in the last... Little errors cost so much...Lucky, as stringing strikes helped out..

Very nice shooting Vince. If not for a little match up problem you probably would have had quite a series. Not that you didn't already, but like you said 800 was a possibility. Hopefully we can all follow you with bowling like that.

How can you not throw a candlepin ball hard. My guess is being sick kept him from overthrowing the ball. Obviously he still threw it hard but it kept him from muscling it too much.

During a video lesson at the 2009 USBC Nationals, Mike Jasnau calculated my rev at around 230. For my rev rate, I get the best overall reaction when my speed is at 15mph (at the pins). When my speed drops below, I start leaving week corner pins. When

Post a video. Impossible to tell if your speed dominant or you have a really weak release. If the scorer was right, you have to be muscling the snot out of the ball to get it up to 19 mph. I hit the ball a touch at the bottom of my swing and I top ou
