I think that was every single shot Wesley Low attempted! Still great to see him on TV. All of Belmo’a ‘lowlights’ except one split were all leaving a single pin. That’s how you know you’re that good!

My understanding was that the PBA was going to test and remove urethane balls that were too soft but didn't do it at the last moment because they couldn't get the instrument calibrated and testing conditions correct to produce reliable results (which, I recall, has been a recurring issue). So it wasn't just urethane. It was, at least in the view of some, a last minute rules change due to the PBA's lack of preparation that potentially allowed those balls to be untested and remain in the tournament.

I think Rash is a baby, but I am with him on a lot of the problems of the modern PBA.. The lane conditions and ball manufacturers have destroyed the game. Honor scores are not even honorable anymore. My mens leagues sees on average 2 dozen 300's and like at least 6 800's every year and our league is terrible. If it is walled house shots with 2 handed hucker throwing strong equipment that cant miss, its the PBA and its circus show just trying to ruin the sport for entertainment, rather than maintaining the integrity of the sport.

I have nothing against two handers. Actually, I think they’re much more athletic and are very interesting to watch. However, they are not playing the same game. Having said that, if the PBA were to ban two handed bowling, it and probably the entire bowling industry would die. So many young guys have adopted that style and it’s here to stay. There are many excellent coaches in now teaching it with the final product looking more and more polished, perfecting the two-handed style. I Remember the same things being said about the early crankers that emerged after the advent of Mark Roth. I wish I was young enough to attempt to throw the ball two handed; but I also enjoy the challenge of getting power on the ball with a clean thumb release and good timing. Some of the spine twisting that I see in the two handed style makes me wonder What the career longevity Will ultimately be for the two handed player.

@@nukiepoo LOL PBA would be just fine without 2-handed bowling. 2-handed bowling is honestly an unfair advantage. It is literally impossible to achieve the same rev rate and speed 1-handed. So 2-handers, on top of having the rev and speed advantage, have much more room for error. For example go back to the Players Championship Belmo won back in like 2017-2018(around then) and watch Belmo.. He never throws 1 good shot, yet carries every single shot light. 1-Handers cannot and will not ever be able to do this. Belmo had zero accuracy yet still won and dominated.

Modified granny style takes the integrity out of the game, it takes far less skill, accuracy, and strength to bowl like that. In league I see 2 handers getting up to 18 boards of mistake room and that is an integrity issue because that is just put the ball right of head pin you will strike everytime level. So essentially it is like one group playing the traditional golf and having them compete with the group playing the new lacrosse like game of golf. I would also love to see the PBA ban the use of wristbands as that is a delivery aide and anything that is used as an aide of a natural delivery is not a natural delivery. Sorry Mike Scroggins.

the problem is, players dont have equal access... And some urethane is WAY better than others(Purple Hammer). Which is why they banned the old purple hammer. Also, urethane destroys the whole premise of modern bowling with modern equipment and lane patterns as it totally destroys the pattern. So players playing more traditionally, become screwed. Urethane does not suit most players games. The only people you really see that are supeer succesful with it are high rev 2-handers.

Its because they dont work and have no movement, whereas Urethan has the double threat of both destroying the lane oil and pattern, as well as moving similar to a reactive ball. And again, Urethane only really truly benefits 2-handers. The whole 2-handed thing is a whole other discussion as it is a significant advantage over 1-handed bowlers. This is why we see people purposefully using Urethan to destroy the lane which just causes things to become a mess.
