Love how all these pros from 20+ years ago are makin KZread channels, it's awesome. Would be cool if Wiseman or Fagan made channels next, or even Haugen Jr. Always wanted to throw it like Maximum Bob.

Fagan's too busy running business to be making videos lol

Robert Smith is Awsome as an athlete and as a person. I love the sport and having someone like him basically giving us lessons on his channel is much appreciated…. I wish I could meet this awsome fella….He at one time in his career lived in my hometown of Pataskala, Ohio but I never was lucky enough to run into him anywhere. Thank you Robert for being a great inspiration to all us bowlers and I hope one day I might get lucky and run into you…….

I'm so glad you decided to make a channel and are going to start making content. You were one of my favorite bowlers to watch growing up and I can't wait to see more from you!

You were always one of the funnest dudes to watch on the pba telecast. Great video man

I struggle watching my at the breakpoint and understanding how to adjust, even tho I'm a solid 215+ avg. This helps and I'm going to work on focusing on this more! 🙌👏👍

I’m so happy to see you bowling again met you way back on Long Island New York probably over 20 years ago and can’t say enough about how nice of a person you were to me and everyone else that was there and definitely one of the most talented bowlers of all time in my book

Thank you Robert for this information. Love watching you bowl. In my opinion one of the most exciting games to watch in all bowling history.

I'm stoked to watch Robs content. So many gems in all of his videos.

This was EYE OPENING! I have a very high rev rate and I always tend to make blind moves with my feet when I should be "making myself the last priority" when making adjustments. Awesome Vid, Bob! Lifelong fan here!

To borrow Mr. Smith’s own words from an old PBA telecast: "Welcome back, Bobby! Welcome back!" Good to see you still throwing pins around like shrapnel. And thanks for the tip.

Mr. Simth, I'm a huge fan from Taiwan. thanks for the content and knowledge.

Your my favorite. Bowler. Maby someday i can meet you. Your bowling style is why i got into bowling.

THANK you very much explaining about the break point no one talk much about it...excellent video.. more instructor video please..

This is really helpful perspective and you have a way of communicating that really clicks with me. Thank you!

Found this video very helpful, good explanation of break-point, speed and how angles affect the shots....tnx much

Thank you. Bob. It was a great insight of how to improve my game.

Glad to see ya back around again.. One of my favorite bowlers to watch as a kid. You're a beast mannnn 🤟🤟🤟

Love this video. I think this will be huge going to tournaments on different patterns and different houses. Thanks Robert Smith!

You have a great way of explaining these concepts. Thanks for doing this.

Hey Robert! Love that you're doing videos now! Was hoping you would after those two great B7 videos you did a few weeks ago. You have a real gift for teaching and you're very charismatic and great on camera. You remind me of the Bob Ross of Bowling which I mean as the highest of compliments. This video on breakpoints is fantastic, the whole game revolves around them. Once i learned to use them effectively is when I feel I went from beginner to intermediate bowler. Would love to see you do a video on targeting. I have tried to use the three point targeting system but feel there's too much variability at the arrows. If I miss at the arrows by an inch, that's 3 or more inches down lane which is a bad shot for me. As much as I try, I'm just inconsistent trying to play the arrows. I usually look at the breakpoint and try to pitch it to the breakpoint at whatever board I'm targeting. What would you teach about targeting systems and how to improve? Thanks, man. Hope you keep doing videos and enjoy this process. 😋

I saw the video and immediately subscribed. Very nice camera work (fixed camera next to the lane); I can see the ball at the arrows and on wards to know how you lined up.

Thank you Robert. So informative. More please.

Big fan and appreciate your videos! You explain things well and keep it simple! Like it!

Thank you for sharing good sir 👍

This video couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks Robert. Appreciate you getting me that TNT Infused so quickly as well.

I just gave you your 1,000 like Great teaching 😊

Robert-been a fan forever! Rapid Robert! Loved watching your power game on tour. Nice to see your content now. Thank you!

"These are the breaks!" 🕺🏻 Great video 👋🏻

The new vibe!! Awesome! Thanks for the amazing content and knowledge Bob!

Loving the videos ! Keep up the great work!

Just hit me a few minutes in that this was “THE ROBERT SMITH”. Aging well my guy! Glad to see you making videos. Loved watching you on the tour back in the day. Subscribing for sure.

Maximum bob. Hell yeah! Glad I found your videos!!!

Thanks for the content, Bob.

Maximum Bob! Great video! Do a video on your release please! It’s one of the best of all time 🔥

Awesome to see you making content Rob!

Dr Bob ... Great stuff !!!

Thank you for Sharing

Love to see some longer format content from the king himself. Looking forward to more!

HIM is right about no friction, no hook. 👍

Using your normal breakpoint on spares is very insightful.

I’m always a big fans of robert smith 🎉

I love your videos. They have been a great help for me in getting back into bowling. 4:00 This was the best help and explanation. I tend to overthink the ball change more; instead of the green flag.

The legendary Robert Smith!!!

Great video Maximum Bob! I guess we'll need a new Arctic Vibe review video soon :)

Who doesn't love this guy?

I got into bowling after his peak, but you have to love his content.

Robert. It’s Mr Schwartz Mop. Drill the Green omega Asap. Treat treat treat.

Nice to hear not so much emphasis on arrows, more on break point for consistency. thanks

Wow this is crazy. Somebody better text Randy to shoutout the channel on the next PBA show. Even though you sound different I can still hear the guy I watched when I was younger. Maybe you could pick up a voice acting gig somewhere.

Hopefully we will get to see you throw the Black Widow Toxin Hybrid. Love watching you throw.

In your opinion is a BP @7 a good “starting reference point” on a house shot. Great content sir!! Always been a fan and great to see your perspective on lining up!

Not always. Remember it’s the house shot. I know where the break point is already here. I’ll put this down for future videos. Thanks. RS

Rob, can you tell us some action Bowling stories when you were touring? Any Ny/ NJ Region stories? Maximum Bob Rules 💪

U are good as Mr Mika 😁😁😁😎😎😉😉

the real GOAT

I typically find and blow past my breakpoint before practice is even over!

We're not worthy! 🙌 We're not worthy! 🙌

How do you determine your break point on different patterns? Do you do PL - 31 or something else? I haven't bowled on sport patterns yet, so not sure if the pl - 31 works for those or what you do to determine where to target down lane. Can you explain or make a video for how to determine and find your break point on different patterns. Thanks. GREAT video, by the way. First time I've watched you, and I subscribed immediately. Looking forward to learning more from you Mr. Smith.

Hi Robert, what's your visual guide for determining where the break point is..?

I see that PBA50 patch on your shirt. Does that mean you're on the PBA 50 tour now? If so you must have the highest rev rate there.

How about a video on how to establish where the breakpoint is?

I really like watching you throw the arctic vibe was looking in to this but just received a new Hammer Black Widow Toxin Hyband it hits like a cinder block. I have a question though how much does layout have on the ball effect the roll and reaction of the ball

Hi Robert great information. I enjoyed breakpoint but also your release video. I always have trouble topping and getting on side of ball. I am 63 havea12 mph with a 15 l. Ball. Have been trying to seed up my approach h but cause me to pull ball. I also have thumb release issues. Should Irelease mythumb or should it release itself

Are you going to be able to bowl any PBA50 stops? Great video

loved watching him bowl but man he sounds like he really needs to clear his throat lol.

at 16:05 looks like guy in backround may have hit his his ankle......ouchhh !

So this is what Robert Smith does when he's not with the Cure.

Yup, no black lipsticks 😂

I am a Senior 1960's style Full Roller with ultra low revs (90 rpms) and low ball speed (12-13 mph launch) What is your recommendation for a breakpoint for straight bowlers like myself on house shots?

Hey Robert, are you turning the wrist and causing the thumb to go to 12 o clock an the fingers continue around or how does the wrist actually work with the shot?

How do you like to find breakpoints? Rule of 31 or trial and error during practice? What do you look at down lane?

@RobertSmith-dk1yx

I look for the friction. The 31 rule to me doesn’t make sometimes.

@@RobertSmith-dk1yx Thank you!

So is the break point always on the 7 board on a house shot and when you shoot at spares using the break point do you target the break point with your eyes?

@RobertSmith-dk1yx

No. It’s where my house shot tends to be. It will vary place to place.

Oh man how can you have a door that leads to daylight right in the bowler's vision? No curtain even?

First 🎉

Why does Maximum Bob's voice sound like RFK Jr. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Come on Robert you can HOOK any ball anywhere depends on side roll VS end over end.

Just make it to the foul line heheheheheHA! just kidding.

Maybe ask Randy Peterson how he stays YOUNG LOOKING: Randy Pedersen (born May 28, 1962)

do you have a kid on the PBA? you can't be the real Robert Smith on the PBA your twice his age it looks like to me! I'll look on the PBA page maybe its been a few decades since I seen yeah?

his is the Robert Smith I know on the PBA tour: Robert Smith (born January 16, 1974) hes only 50 years old. this is NOT you, RIGHT!? dam your voice nasty? looks vary old way over 50 I mean? today is 5-2-24
