The funny thing is Robert Smith has lived everywhere. He lived in California, Ohio, Hawaii, and now in Hong Kong. Not only is he a great bowler, but a great traveler

2:13 That was the nastiest flush I have ever seen. It was like the moment the ball hit the pocket, all ten were in the pit before the ball got there.

Thanks Again Wolf! Bombardier to battle station! :D

the download links for this show are now posted on my myspace page.. These are DVD quality..enjoy

I remember waiting and hoping Maximum Bob would make TV every week back then. He was so entertaining to watch

He's been measured at over 850 rpm. One of the reasons he went to the Sarge Easter grip was to get his rev rate to a more managable 500-550rpm.

I don't have the tape anymore, it's the 1993 Masters. Jason Queen won, bowling a 300 in the semifinals. Jason BTW was also one of the best Golden Tee Fore players out there.

waiting for part 2!

There's footage of an ABC Masters tournament where they describe the CATS system (I belive it's the one that Jason Queen won). Robert Smith was measured at 763 RPM, I believe it was his rookie year...

i love the annimation at the begenning

Theres a typo in the brackets! Angleo..?

That ball isn't that weak, it's just meant to go long. So it's not too amazing to see that ball hook that much. That ball was just perfect for the way the condition was at that time, on fire.

lol I never noticed that before. Good catch.

Are you from Tennessee, and is the guy's name Troy?

@TyRTiThey are talking about RPM (rev. per minute) If you do the math he is looking at approx. 35 revs from set down point to contact with the pins. As far as being, educated I have over 30 years in the game, owned and operated my own pro shop for 10 years, bowled in college in the US and bowled with many of the guys you see on the PBA (Brand Angelo, Bob Learn, Tommy Baker, Patrick Allen and others) No disrespect meant by my post the announcer should've been more clear so you dont get wrong info

Robert Smith must be VERY strong. I knew he had alot of revs but 600 or more? Wow!

He averaged 550-600 but his rev rate can top out at 720

@sabeboy1977 Angelo is a really nice guy, he's just from Buffalo, NY is all. Everyone up there is like that.....and they all bowl really good too. He's running the BowlU clinics with Rick Benoit now. Focuses on the knowledge side of the game a lot with some work on physical. One of the tools he uses includes a to scale model of a lane. Having made one of these before, I can tell you it is surprisingly skinny. I had one that was 39 CM in width, but over 3 feet long.

No, I'm from North Carolina, and the guys name is Chris

I'm a big fan of Rob Stone he is awesome.

@travis82x haha i see it, they got koivuniemi right but not angelo haha

Is that new pattern, non oil pattern? Crazy!

why do people loft there bowling ball do u get more pin carrey or what

The Masters in Salt Lake City 1996. He was averaging 700 no problem.

robert smith has been clocked in, at 740 rpms, with a 15 pound ball. one handed i may add, and yes i can prove it.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

your wrong, the cheetah is the shortest pattern but it uses the highest volume of oil and acutally i usually use a fairly aggresive ball to bowl on cheetah because of the high volume of oil

@rnv069 Im just saying what they said are you saying your more educated then the people working for PBA? I dont think so...

@dillonleetaylor that is IMPOSSIBLE!

currently due to age, no he isnt. in his prime, he was up there before these guys were even out there. do you want the source? ill send it to you, he admits it him self.

that one popped the wood!

yea right

Yeah, I'm from Buffalo and we are all like that. lol

@bowlerdude95 Its shark!

Smith has been measured at over 750 RPM...

this is also coming from someone who says, belmo and osku thrown a shot with 900 rpms, when you cant even prove it, or as you say "send me a video with proof"

@FoxSilv dude try reading what I wrote. Rpm. Do the math sparky you will come up with around 30 - 35 revs from release to impact.

You knew Angelo was going to lose when he switched to a Rampage.

6:44 wtf

This isn't The Cure at all.

That's what is called a "commercial".

i dont have a video, and not all proof has to be videos... i have the source, and he him self admits it, now if you would quit being a skeptic, i said i could prove it.

House bowlers do worse than what Robert Smith did. The house has nothing to worry about from Bob, except maybe breaking the glass protector at the back of the deck.

lol by the beard of zues how is that possible

hahaha but it's funny. she scored a touchdown!

Your ass is right! As for the grip, whenever you decrease the distance between a finger and the thumb = decrease rev rate because there is a shorter time gap between the finger and thimb release. Also the farther the finger grips from the thumb, the easier to get under and around it; and the more axis rotation equals more axis tilt and more revolutions. The Sarge Ewaster grip would tend to keep the hand more behind the ball = less rotation, less tilt, and less revs.

robert smith loft his ball just because he got too much rev

whoa that shoots are horrible wtf ? air strikes

@TyRTi how the hell would Robert Smith get 600 revs in 60 ft?? 10 revs per foot??? dont think so..... not even close. besides the cover would burn off in a half game.... oh and the fact that hes lofting the ball past the arrows..... dont believe everything you hear....

Damn, is that some swinging coke jaw?

Really ugly looking strike ball by Smith but man that guy had to do shit like that because of his rev rate.

+Riz2336 I think Smith had his ring-finger hole drilled out to a traditional depth to reduce his revs in later years. He's a beast :-)

+Jonas Butler The ringfinger hole only marginally reduced his revrate, from like 575 to 540ish (or thereabout). The main reason was to keep the ball more upright at the release, he had a tendency to tilt it too much, causing the ball to hook to irregullar.
