Speed, accuracy and revolutions - the three things a bowler needs in order to get a lot of strikes.

Resin made the light hit a percentage strike for tweeners, and. messengers a common theme in the mid 90's. Once, the Power Coil 18 (Brunswick) and Superflex (Columbia) covers were put on those strong, low RG/high differential cores, holyshit. You learned what a cheater ball was. They even made reverse block easier if you had ball speed. Pure garbage. Those balls took degrees of power and finesse out of the game.

From my perspective as an old school scratch bowler, it is weird looking. However, it has taken hold in the sport and is here to stay. Bowling needs innovation and the ability to excite new generations about the sport. Anything that does that is OK by me.

I’m all for bowling whatever style works, it’s the complaining about the evolution of two handed that’s just incessantly annoying. 😂. Much love and thank you for your kind reply.

String pins are a travesty to the sport, Two handed bowling is just a style thing. You can get the same revs and speed thumb in, you just destroy your arm/shoulder to do it. I mean before the Fosbury flop people just did high jumps on their belly.

I'm so glad someone made this. I understand preferring things how they were when you were younger, and I even like Jason Couch a lot. But that quote was as uninsightful as any I have ever heard about anything on any topic, ever.

A good amount of bowlers are stuck in the past. Two-handed bowling is the future. Oil patterns have gotten longer and harder (that's what she said. 😈), balls have gotten stronger and more reactive, and people are adapting to transitioning conditions better than ever. The old-school ways aren't as effective anymore. Those who won't adapt to change will quit. If you think two handed is unfair/should be banned, then switch.

Basketball players used to shoot free throws with two hands and underhanded. Golf clubs used to be all wooden. Sports equipment and styles are fluid.

If Jason Couch, (a great bowler, by the way), were truly "old school" wouldn't his ball only have two holes, one finger and one thumb? 😊

I love the collective hating and whining when people see somebody rise to the top of a field. Yet to have someone give a good reason on how 2 handed is “cheating” or is “unfair”. Should reactive resin have been banned? No? Then don’t complain about 2 handed

greatest thing to ever happen to the sport.

I will say, it is much easier to get revs 2 handed, which is why Belmo revolutionized the sport. It gave everyone the opportunity to have more power. I support and am thankful for 2 handed bowling and more importantly Belmo for bringing much needed attention back to the sport. Btw, I’m a one handed and have been for 11 years 😂

Well, the best bowler right now is a one-handed bowler, so it just proves that there is more than one way to be successful.

A strike is a strike. Me and my team will always pick on our two-handed teammate, but hey he out scores all of us so he doesn't care.

Absolutely it's about time someone speaks up it is a travel to the sport and is destroying the sport it's not two handed bowling from 100 years ago it's one headed bowling I don't care how you think you deliver the ball.

Why would I want to bowl like you, if Im beating you. - Jason Belmonte

I'm a 1HRH, I remembered when Belmo came on the scene and I thought it would never catch on..... Boy was I surprised when I came back to the sport

man he would really hate it now

I understand what he’s saying I kinda just always felt that you should declare a hand. You have to remember back then bowling with two hands was taboo it was almost looked at like corking a bat in baseball. You just have all this tradition and now someone is allowed to bowl using two hands which provides an unfair advantage and all those guys had spent their entire lives bowling one handed so it’s not like you can say we’ll everyone can use two hands if they want. Yes that’s true they can but it’s kind like the rug was pulled out from underneath all these guys who had some a lifetime mastering one handed bowling then allowing Belmo to waltz’s in there and use two.

Anything that improves your performance in any sport should be embraced as revolutionary, not denigrated because it's "not traditional".

Also, it’s amazing how many people still think that both hands are used to rotate the ball and create revs. Every single two hander to ever bowl on the PBA removes the off hand before release, the revs are created with the same two fingers that any one handed bowler uses. Anyone who says both hands are used is admitting that they know nothing about the physics of bowling ball roll..it’d be impossible to impart the same axis tilt and axis rotation with both hands simultaneously.

I don’t think it’s a travesty, just like any other sport, bowling evolves, and here we are. It’s just a more efficient way to bowl, and it’s all around better. I personally still bowl 1 handed, but seeing the amount of success 2 handers have definitely makes me consider switching because it just makes sense. If you want to roll with the competition, you have to adapt.

The Fosbury Leap of bowling.

If 2 handed was unbeatable, why is there still so many elite one handed bowlers? The guy shouldn't be commentating.

I thought he was talking about Belmo wearing those Google glasses 😂

Everyone complaining has tried two hand but realized they didn’t get better so they decided to complain about two hand bowlers instead 😂

It’s just an easy way to get into bowling and see the ball move because of how much easier it is to get revs as someone who is inexperienced compared to learning and practicing with three fingers

Belmo has also won titles 1 handed. He is just the goat

He is amazing, love him, and he is the GOAT, but your statement is not true. He never won a title (certainly not PBA) one handed.

No. He's not. And he bowls two handed, which is something only little children should do.

Theres technically more than a billion different styles since everyone throws it differently

New ways in sports, is not a travesty it just makes the sport better! Within 2 decades the thumb roll will be extinct. I alredy noticed in Bowling alleys with young people!

You don't have to like the two-handed style, but you cannot deny that it doesn't work.

If you can't beat em join em.

Jason Belmonte is to bowling as Bret Hart was to wrestling back in his day.'Jason is 'The best there is,the best there was,and the best there ever will be'.... In my opinion..

Hall of Famer Norm Duke said the same about Belmo. That’s a huge compliment coming from him. He doesn’t whine about two handers.

Don’t complain man the 🐐🐐🐐 with it

He is the single most accurate strike shot shooter in history. His revs help but they aren't the reason that he wins. He's just that accurate

also he has the same revs as almost all the other pros. They’re all around 510.

I loved that i learned 2 hand bowling and the second game after practicing it, i hit 205

He can play anywhere on the lane and he is accurate.

Different strokes for different folks
