Never Miss Another Spare Again! (maybe) 🤷

[@chucky1119p]

Brunswick should make an updated version of this system. It would definitely be helpful to bowlers that need a better spare system.

[@NXCoyoteF150]

This absolutely helps those who bowl straight! I have such a huge hook and have recently had to change my entire release to get more spares and this absolutely helped me! I went from a couple spares a game to 85% of spares now. It's embarrassing to bowl a crappy game because you missed 3of 5 spares. Thank you.

[@jodroogmans9374]

would be worth to digitalize this, definitely still seems valid... especially as people struggle with their corner pins

[@XenoGuru]

That's a really cool vintage gadget. It actually makes me question a few things about my own game by what it was stating about: "Left foot on (blank)." I've always put my right foot on the board I want. Maybe should try left.

[@brunsnick]

I was always taught you line up with your slide foot.

[@XenoGuru]

@@brunsnick Given a few physical properties of our muscles, that could be why I've never had very good balance at the line. If I'm placing my bodyweight on my right foot to start...🤷‍♂️

[@kimjones3298]

I wish I could find one like you did. I think it would be awesome to have one. I think you’re right Brunswick should reprint it. They’d make some serious $

[@shariwelch]

I so enjoyed this video!! I was born in 1962. Had to giggle a little since I just recently heard the arrows called darts by an elderly gentleman. What a fun video and an amazing find.

[@brunsnick]

Thank you! Glad you got the chuckle.

[@TraumaER]

I need to buy that thing! It's better than any new bowling ball out!

My dad has that some where in the house. We use that back in the early 90s to get me started bowling better.

[@DementedDistraction]

Considering that Range Finder is difficult to find and long out of print, you should make yours into a PDF so people can print it out and assemble their own.

[@xMikeyG]

Obviously no substitute for practice but I can definitely see a reissue of this being helpful for new bowlers getting into the sport or even for somebody getting ready to bowl on something like Nationals for the first time.

[@TrevorPrinceMusic]

Even if you use this you still have to work on hitting the target. So practice

[@xMikeyG]

@@TrevorPrinceMusic Yes, which is why I said "obviously no substitute for practice"

[@thebigeasy8609]

Good stuff Nick. I actually learned a thing or two. It made sense on a few of your spares to throw it for less chance of a chop. Thanks

[@squidly2112]

Haha .. I love it Nick !!! ... "if you are a right hander and leaving the [ fill in the blank ] you are having a really bad day" ... HAHAHA! .. yeah, well, I leave all of those!! .. pretty much sums up my day I guess .. haha .. getting a good laugh from that one. Good thing I ordered one of these from EBay! ..

Hey, I was born in 1962 .. 😎

[@brunsnick]

Almost time to be cashing those government SS checks! 😁

[@JohnMiller-yi4fu]

Wish i had this back when I was in a youth league. I think they should hand these out for leagues as a perk of your dues if you want one. Very handy. Did they make them for left handed bowlers? I guess with the video displays some show where to throw the ball but they don't account for your feet position.

[@brunsnick]

It says to just reverse everything for lefties.

[@nickschneider150]

Nice video, can't argue with old school.

[@robertmiller408]

Just came to say, the hammer hazmat is the goat. Thanks for the video on it

3 likes before the video has even started. Thats how good Brunsnick is. People already know he has something highly valuable to offer before he even starts talking.

I have the most supportive people for sure! This is really quite cool and unique!

[@darylgould8923]

Haha

[@captaincarl8230]

New subscriber here. Thanks for showing this. I'm a duckpin bowler, former professional (DPBA), and can really use this because I learned how to bowl by watching the Pro Bowlers Tour, with Nelson Burton Jr's Tip of the Week, back in the late '70s & early '80s. I would like to "turn the clock back" to my DPBA days by relearning how to be better at making spares. The DPBA minimum (125 average in a sanctioned league) is like the PBA minimum (190 in a sanctioned league). Right now, at the age of 64, I am borderline (averaging 126).

[@tracewilson7216]

I'm laughing my butt off over here (internally, since my fam is asleep) because this is very nearly the literal word-for-word coaching I got when I started in 1990. My Ebonite Turbos (Ebony, Sapphire & Ruby) were the cutting edge of bowling back then, I'll have you know.

[@garylanglois5652]

I need this since I was born in 1962. Bring it next Thursday, should work at House of Pain. 😂

[@NewVisionLCS]

Brunswick is Da Man!!

[@jwatkins3005]

This is 💯 if you pick up throwing straight. That is the best way to throw at spairs.

[@denmanfite3156]

I'd say most of what you showed (I'm less than 7m into the video) most average bowlers have a pretty good idea of the physics involved with picking up these spares. The physical DELIVERY, however, is their real issue.

[@brunsnick]

That’s where practice comes in to get good.

[@johnnyrock852]

I guess 10 pins weren't an issue then. Fun video. A gadget that works.

[@brunsnick]

They were too busy leaving the 1-3-9 as a righty! 😁

[@ripvanrevs]

@@brunsnick I remember leaving a lot of 4-5-7s in the 70s.

[@CliftonDon74]

Nice one! I think a How to make spares video is more rare since most videos out there show what awesome balls are out there to get more strikes.

[@NathanMoist]

Never heard the arrows referred to as darts! Interesting!

[@brunsnick]

Very old school terminology there.

[@10pinsneaker75]

I love gadgets!

[@desmondtan8414]

Somebody come out this ideal many many year. With this every one can become Pro in spare. Especially ppl who throw straight style.

[@chadmatsuo700]

I remember seeing one of these back when i was a youth bowler.

[@lindadelcamp6686]

Does this tell you what board to stand on? If so, where is your foot? I'm a right handed bowler. Is it the inside of left foot or toe?

[@spiderico00]

I'm creating a bowling app which will launch in a few months. This is a brilliant idea, I will be adding something similar to the app. I will give credit where credit is due though, thanks for the idea!

[@TTSRCLASS2011]

Nick, I dont understand. The feet moves I understand, but the eye target varies depending on the target pin?

[@brunsnick]

Yes. You set your feet, target the pin you need to hit and bring your eyes back on an imaginary line until you find your mark at the arrows (darts as they call it then)

[@upstatebassing3437]

Any plans to revisit bowling spinner style??

If you do hand that out to the PBA bowlers, the PBA may ban that like they did with urethane ban under the 78 hardness rule. I made 5-10 split a lot but made it just once. I made that shot with my Black Widow Pink Urethane when I first got that ball last year.
