Yes, it is for sure and I love the nickname "Maximum Bob". It truly does describe his bowling ability.

I bowled juniors with Robert when he was 14 and I was 17. And he had massive revs then when nobody could throw the ball like that, let alone at 14 with only urethane. He was amazing.

Wow, amazing to see the true potential with people like EJ Tacket, Andrew Anderson, Robert Smith, etc. of a ball can be! Any one hander putting 500+ on a ball has an incredible amount of accurate fine motor skill control. Good stuff. 👍 Reminds me of the Colombia 300 Juke in terms of bang for buck. 😊

New bowler trying to build my first arsenal. My first ball was a Rhino, followed by an original Infinity. The same proshop operator drilled both. I'll post each ball's stats and PAP at that time. The Rhino throws absolutely straight, but kind of at a diagonal. I'm left-handed, low rev, 15-19 mph near the pins. I'm not locked in to any brand (though oddly enough I seem to go for Brunswick balls as I also have a Slingshot). Balls are 12 lbs. I can't hook worth a darn, so thinking asymmetric balls that can handle extremely dry through heavy oils? Brunswick Rhino PAP Left 3 1/2 Up 3 1/16 Layout 60 x 3 1/2 x 30° Brunswick Infinity PAP Left 5 Up 1 3/8 Layout 30 x 4 1/4 x 35° Thank you for your time and assistance!

@No_Lucks_Given 4 ай бұрын

Well here's the thing. If you have a reactive resin ball that's not hooking then it's most likely something with your game that needs to improve. Try looking into videos about drills you can do to make your wrist and finger strong enough to be able to release the ball in a way that puts revolutions on the ball. Look into what your hand position should be when releasing the ball. RPM is a result of form.

@edb3877 4 ай бұрын

"Rhino throws absolutely straight, but kind of at a diagonal." It does? Wow. My Rhino is one of the hardest hooking balls I own. It comes in real handy under oily conditions where my Nu Blu Hammer slides down the lane and then makes a feeble attempt at hooking up near the transition point. But I still like the New Blu for its great play on medium oil lanes. I hadn't shot a 700+ series in 6 years but with the Nu Blu I've had 3 of them in the past month or so. It's nice to have both balls and then just use the one that best matches up with the lane conditions that day. I also have a Hammer Venom but lately, it's been falling off my hand during the delivery. Need to add a drop or two of epoxy to the edge of middle finger hole where it is chipped out, allowing the insert to flex on delivery. That should straighten that problem out.

@GrumpaBaggins 4 ай бұрын

@edb3877 I wish our lanes had oil. There is usually a very thin, spotty trace of oil on the balls for about half of the first game. After that, you are lucky to find a flare pattern regardless of what type of ball you are using. I did bowl my best game yet, tonight. 198 with my Rhino. Couldn't get my Infinity to do much of anything on the dry. I play 3 to 4 games each night and 4 or 5 nights per week lately. Just started playing this year. I'm not good at all, but with constant dizziness and double vision, I'm trying my best.

For House shots I think Hybrid is the way to go.

@No_Lucks_Given 4 ай бұрын

I mean it really depends on the ball and the house. A solid could be really clean and a pearl could be really early. You could have a hybrid of a clean solid and a clean pearl and have a clean ball. Turns out solid, hybrid, and pearl don't mean that much until you see how the ball actually performs.

How do you know how to layout your ball without a pap

@akt8384 4 ай бұрын

you don't

@notonyourlife7939 4 ай бұрын

You don't... and without a ball drilled to fit your hand, your PAP can't be determined accurately. So the first ball you ever drill is just a guess made by the driller using a "typical" PAP in the range of most bowlers, with a middle-of-the-road layout. Once you have a ball that fits you can actually measure your PAP, and then start experimenting with layouts on subsequent purchases. If you really get into competitive bowling at any level, arsenal building is a process that never really ends...

@No_Lucks_Given 4 ай бұрын

Honestly people talk about PAP like it's something you must know. But here's the thing, when you throw the ball differently your pap changes. This does NOT mean that pap doesn't matter or that layout doesn't matter but what it does mean is that it doesn't matter nearly as much as everyone says. If you're a traditional one handed thumb in bowler, then I guarantee your pro shop operator can drill your ball for you by just asking how strong of a layout you want. And if you don't know they'll probably just drill it, middle of the road for your average thumb in bowler. It would 99% of the time be fine. Not rolling over any of the holes and doing what you need it to do. Unless you got something weird going on with your release it's fine. Or unless your PSO doesn't know what they're doing.

@nukeman6169 4 ай бұрын

So how does this guy do it without knowing it. Because I drill balls all the time and the first thing I get is the pap measurement

Make Bowling Balls Colorful & Reactive Again! It's so boring to watch PBA telecasts when everyone is just throwing a urethane ball down 2nd arrow, might as well watch 1980s black and white TV reruns.
