That Pink Widow though... that was definitely the right ball through early on part.. Seeing your review and also some of the shots on this crazy pattern has me pretty sold on it...and I need to add another Widow to my "collection" anyway.

I had a mini heart attack at 9:48 🤣

9:50 almost stood that thing back up!

Thanks for the consistent uploads, it's much appreciated! Good luck to you and the rest of the guys this week!!!

Way go !, thanks for showing what is like to bowl in the pro on different condition of lanes . Good luck !

You definitely had that Brooklyn line dialed for a while. Seriously, it looked like you had a higher strike percentage that way compared to when you were hitting the pocket in the middle of the block. Good luck the rest of the tourney Packy! Hope to see you on the show!

Interesting that some guys started throwing plastic. I have Radical's The Spy, but I only use it when the lanes dry up.

Throwing plastic because they dont know how to bowl norm who imo is best i ever saw was using a nova because his movements are so much better with no hit up or grab with much less axis rotation if you are throwing plastic you really dont understand how to bowl

@Treads I also have The Spy and mainly use it for my spare ball, but it is fun to bring it out when the heads are scorched because of urethane or very dull Solids and have it carry the corners because of a big weight block.

Good job Man, way to go! Praying you’ll make the cut🙏

Good fight! That 9 pin left on lane 47 was shot to the heart!

I have started watching bowling a bit the past month or so and man norm duke is pretty funny to watch on some of the funny moments videos

It would’ve been a dulled pitch black & plastic day for me on that! That Pink looked great though!

Looks brutal. GL the rest of the way fellas.

I'm loving this stuff and seeing how these patterns are honestly. And of course the best part of this has to be seeing Norm get all animated haha

9:50 That pins reaction is cool

U got this packster rooting for ya. FYI thank you for showing me buddies pro shop best people there.

Good luck to you Pac. My guy is Norm D, he's got wild game and skills for his age. You young guys could learn a thing or to from him. I thought I'd lost my game. The last 3 weeks in the league popped 277,244 and 244 in the first game and shot 629 and 612. Last Monday finally broke my ceiling shooting 268 and 258 to finish with 770! So go get it, I'll be pulling for you too.

We've got Tommy Jones striking like a lefty and Packy striking like a righty lol

Yall can do it. Lets get the house in the cut line. side note: 6:52 I really like Teece's follow through. His swing and trail leg remind me of this guy I bowled HS and junior classic tournaments from Grant Pass, Oregon. His name was Billy Gerber. That guy had the graceful swing with plenty of revs when needed like Teece here.

Crazy how at 10:06 and 10:38 you and Tommy just got it a tad outside and it labored to get back leaving identical spares (right 2-10 and left 3-7 respectively)

You know it's tough when you see multiple plastic balls being thrown.

straighter is greater, throwing plastic is never shameful, even on easier patterns!

I enjoy watching Packy bowl more than ANY other bowler. There is something magical about his stroke.

Make a run for the cut on day 3!!! You got this

Come to the Garage Bowling Alley in Dallas sometime !

Picky you and they pink are giving!!!!!!!

I throw a pink Widow ...my favorite ball.

Packy: if you read these I’m curious, watching from about 2/3 of the way through with pink ball it looked like the issue was early hook, you seemed to make the change to loft but then went away from it. What were you seeing that made you stop lofting? Or was it just pair to pair?

Brooklyns are rough but they sure look good on paper

Would you come to nc to bowl a different two hander??

Woodland Bowl already has a weird shot line, Add that Pro oil pattern and damn...

9:51 - pin stood back up and fell back down again.

Patterns look tough but Good Luck!

I think I would do pretty decent on those lanes. I recently started throwing weaker balls on purpose to simplify my game. I will start with a ball like the tropical storm and usually end with plastic on dry lanes

Unfortunately that would not work, flat patterns are really slick so you would need something a little stronger than a tropical storm.

Do you think the radical spy would have an option ilon the flat?

Holy splits, Batman!! Try throwing your spare ball down the middle. Couldnt do any worse.

Being an ex Bowling Tech from 20+ years ago I would like to see how the prep the lanes is this doable

Watching alot of your videos, I have to admit that pink widow seems to be the best ball you throw. Even in the intro video when you first drilled it out. Definitely watching your throw, you have to maintain that follow through all the way. It gives your ball a much nicer angle through the pins and not that ugly snap on the backend.

Did they give you 11 pins for that shot at 9:50? And Hammer better give you a kick back for that pink Widow. I am sold on adding one to my bag after seeing how it rolls for you here.

I just wonder how much of the struggle here is to keep your fundamentals on such a difficult shot. I see some guys struggling with mechanics as they can't match up either ball or line with what's out there. I'd think you would have to detox your game when you get back on more reasonable sport conditions.

Looks like guys are just missing at the breakpoint. Trying to play it with a house shot break point.

Buying a 500$ bowling to have an over exaggerated hook doesn’t make you a good bowler. Knowing how to adjust to lane conditions. Leaving solid ten pins constantly is a 1/4 inch adjustment or raising the ball for more ball speed or moving up on the approach to get ball further onto the lane . Watching some of you clowns with this two finger spin is a joke. I no longer bowl but in 1997 I did lead league in average with 211 using a peal blue hammer ( twenty years old) . Bowling isn’t about how much spin torture you can have on a ball . What you get in the pin deck is the direct result of your approach. Being off balance leads to inconsistency. Earl Anthony was a machine same delivery every time.

Someone with a warped sick sense of humor came up with that torturous pattern. Ugh

Maybe more people would subscribe to you if you didn’t lie about “free bowling balls” in your description area. Just saying. Stop lying.

tell me something I have bowled that pattern alot and never had to much problem why do you guys have a problem. is it because you all are trying to score big with the out of this world bowling balls. why can't you just go into a situation like this with a good old fashioned plastic ball drill to go long then hook hard. wouldn't averaging 205-210 be better then averaging 185
