As a kid in the early 70s, I got my first ball. It was an 8 pound Brunswick Black Beauty. Because it was so light, it would not return after the first shot. So, I had to use a heavier house ball on the spare shot. The house ball would then return, while pushing my 8 pound ball back to me... True story. 😊

Reminds me of this one time a few years back I went bowling and the lanes the put me and my friends on had no balls in the area. Then we bowled our first shots and our balls didn't come back. Turns out, some people had used a bunch of the 8 lbs. house balls which were too light to come back up which clogged up the entire return system. Instead of saying something, they just threw every other ball some that over 50 were stuck. they hade to take the cover off the lane returns.

Oh my GAWD!! That's how I bowl! I had no idea that I just needed a heavier ball to go pro!

I need to see more of this

Whenever I go bowling with friends I get the heaviest one they have and launch it down The alley. It’s a hit and miss strategy.

I'd like to see Marshall throw another game with a 2-pound ball, but with only 1 set of finger holes. I want to see if that 2nd set of holes made any difference.

Hearing that ball roll down the lane on the extra finger holes if the bowling equivalent of fingers scratching a chalkboard!

Loved watching it just bounce off the pins hahaha

If you watch carefully he makes a good adjustment half way through the game. He rolls it in the first few frames and then he starts lobbing it way down the lane in the later frames which worked a lot better.

With all the new-fangled ways of bowling, a two pound ball opens more possibilities, like throwing the ball overhand. I don't think that's ever been done before, at least not in serious competition. It would have the opposite spin of throwing underhand, so it would be almost like bowling left handed if you were a righty, and vice-versa if you were lefty. That might be handy in certain situations, like a righty trying to pick up a 1-2-4-7 spare.

Now I'm wanting to see a series of episodes with odd challenges. The 2 lbs ball is one, obviously. How about a 30 lbs one? Maybe a different set of challenges for a bit of team sport? Your team has to complete a predetermined set of frames with each player taking turns on each throw (meaning two players per frame). Set up a 7-10 split for your team mate and they have to clear it. 8 points for a partial completion (meaning the setup is done properly) and counts as a spare and 10 points for a completion and counts as a strike.

I used to like to try to bowl a game using the house balls, using a different ball for each throw. Lots of variety. But then you'd find one you really liked and would stick with it.

Not to mention how it grabs the lane differently. A lighter ball won't have as much friction, so it won't curve nearly the same as the heavier balls.

The issue is not only controlling it but the fact that it deflects so much that it's hard to carry even a perfect shot and with the exception of single pins cover spares.

3:30 is actually pretty impressive! :)

Awesome video as usual 😂😂👍👍❤

My father owned a bowling center back in the 90s. My buddies and I would bowl pot games with 6lb and 8lb house balls. Talk about some crazy leaves! It was fun until we started cracking the balls and my dad put an end to that! lol

My daughter saw this, and would love to get this same ball. Are there any 2lb. balls that can be used on standard bowling lanes for youngsters? light enough for little fingers, but solid enough to knock over pins? I have seen some that are for gym floors, or for outside, but she wants one that she can use to bowl with her dad. Thanks in advance...

Out old center had some custom drilled 6 pounders, lol we could probably throw a 30 mph ball but after a few games they cracked lol

Funny stuff. Hello from Lincoln NE.

What an interesting challenge ! 😄

i like how he gradually just switches to throwing the ball further and further instead of rolling it xD

A topic that would be interesting is Weight vs. Speed. I would think a heavy ball rolled slower then a lighter ball rolled faster could carry the same energy. I roll a 16lb ball at 13.5 mph and my teammate rolls a 14lb ball at 15 mph. Which one carries more energy to the pins? Is there a graph showing energy of a bowling ball as a result of Weight vs. Speed?

You might throw a perfect ball but the pins will deflect 2lb would be fun for picking up spares or practicing back up ball

My guess is it takes two frames to get used to it then tops out at around 180 some Lolnope

I would be curious as to how PBA bowlers would do in either candlepin or duckpin bowling where the balls are lighter, smaller & have no holes.

In my "heyday", I rolled a 10 pounder. Since I've become disabled, I can only roll Duckpin balls. The last time I rolled my 10 pound ball, I threw my shoulder out, and couldn't move my arm for 2 days. However, plug up one set of those holes, and I would easily give that 2 pounder a chance. I throw with a backspin straight ball(both 10s and Ducks)... I'd actually like to see how to goes with a ball that light.

hmm, who knew that this whole time i was simply using the wrong weight of ball. anyone know where i can get a 48 lb ball at?

That looks like fun

This is a really cool idea

Crazy that it was actually hooking and that he was doing pretty ok with it. Guess he’s a pro for a reason

How about new England bowling candlepin I feel this is harder than your ten pin bowling and yes I have done both

Educational video. I always thought about drilling a 10 or 12 lbs ball to work on mechanics with. But I am afraid it will completely screw over my wrist strength when I try to go back to my 15lbs weight.

My hands are fairly big. I'm no weakling but i feel i can't control a 15 pounder very well and rarely find like a 12 pounder that my fingers fit into.

Should've rolled two games. The first toward the head pin ... see if you can break 100... the second to the side so there's less splits ... maybe 125.

Can you do vids on the 12&13 lb. balls since they are played in leagues. There are many Reactive covers out there.

@nothumbbowler1802

After a bicep injury I used 12 lbs for 1 1/2 years. No one could tell it was 12 from the way it hit the pins. The book Bowling Beyond Basics will give all the math and details. Summary is that power = (mass X velocity squared) / 2 So a very small increase in speed makes up for a big change in weight. A lighter ball thus hits just as hard provided it is thrown a little faster.

I wonder if you could just chuck it straight into the pins on the fly?

Makes me wonder about spare shots when you have separated pins. Would using a lighter ball make some more kind of splits since the ball will actually bounce instead of going straight through. He picked up that one spare because the ball deflected and took out another set of pins. It seems it might be helpful for spares that are harder because you rely strictly on pin action to carry across the lane.

@GK-gc9cv

I think so....we had a very old guy in our league who threw a light ball. I cant remember the split but it was pretty big and his ball bounced off the one pin and into the other. Something a normal weight/speed ball would have no chance of doing

Does the trend work on lane conditions
