I Bowled Against Jason Belmonte In My First Match Of The Year

[@2gracemedia957]

Fun watching the head-2-head competition! Great effort against a lot of well known, even hall of fame, bowlers. Thanks for bringing us along. It’s going to be a great season!

[@brenthutchins7130]

Since i started watching your youtube man it just gives me so much motivation to keep pushing to be the best bowler i can be. Im bowling in my first ever PBA regional in buffalo in march. Cant wait. Thanks for your content man!

[@brenthutchins7130]

@Clips_For_Life it was good. I didnt finish dead last thats all that counted for me lol. I tried my best. I at least know more of what to expect next time i participate in one.

[@brenthutchins7130]

@Clips_For_Life it was a great learning experienceeeee

[@shawn4611]

The fact that you remain positive even during the rough patches shows a lot.

[@DarrenTang]

Try* 😆

[@poopdoop3680]

OMG HI DARREN

[@cameronharrell5332]

That 7-10 split made my but pucker then I saw the 10 fall and I sighed in relief 😂

[@jackwardle9714]

😮

[@sammalamma6597]

The ol but pucker

[@ThatGuyBM]

Does your but pucker make a sound?

[@zizzyglizzy3684]

yuup

[@gw3993]

Last night at league I left the 7-10 but the 10 fell late, and just before the rack came down an extremely late messenger came and took the 7 down for a strike. I saw this happening and was pointing for my team to look and when they fell I gave it the Pete Weber crotch chop. It was so awesome.

[@jakesuffa6228]

So glad I picked this video, no talking just ball and pin is so relaxing, along with the great choice of background music. Love the vid!

[@leahp.316]

You're so consistent, and your form at the foul line is such a sight to see. You were awesome to watch. Thanks.

[@KDSRirelandboy1]

very few things in the world are as amazing to watch than Belmo in the groove. That man just has a craft for the sport that doesn't compare to many others.

[@StephenLella]

Great shooting all week, and awesome vlogs throughout. Keep on keepin' on! Barnes still has game - he's tricking that Reality to play up the boards. Amazing stuff!

[@Firenutz]

Great speed against O’Neill and Kandyhand Prather. Looked about as natural as possible both matches. Some excellent bowling, D!

[@rebootnut]

Nice to see Jakob get the afternoon off from his job at Foot Locker to bowl.

[@GuruuGames]

lmaooo

[@ripvanrevs]

He was doing the JV game between West and North right after he got done with the second block.

[@loonatikzen7531]

thanks for sharing this video. I enjoyed watching these matches and seeing Pro's in through the field that aren't on TV. Gives a good insight, for sure. You had some great bowling in there. It's fun to watch.

[@hoth3875]

Music selection for the last few of these has been fire 🔥 Good bowling!

[@DJJAYTECH]

Hey Darren, what song is playing on 6:30? Great bowling man!

[@Johndavidson4]

Don't sleep on it - S.O

[@refuse2defuse121]

Yooo can somebody help me find the song which starts at 6:30 ? Shazam and Soundhound cant seem to pick. searching for 6 months

[@Johndavidson4]

Don't sleep on it - S.O

[@GMilstead102]

best bowling channel on the platform. and it keeps getting better

[@BearlyAwakeGames]

Loving the videos man! On these more Vlog style videos, you should give us a rundown of what you’ll be bowling with throughout the day and also why you make a ball change. Keep up the good work!

[@xavierguzman8468]

Great idea👍🏽

[@chohn1979]

You kept you composure throughout that’s good too see your head is in the right place. You will get the wins this season

[@JusTrev3]

LFG Tang!!! It’s refreshing to see someone with a positive outlook instead of blaming shit for their struggles. Keepgoing brother, you got this mannnnnnnn👊🏽

[@mykalhenry]

Best vid of yours to date, really enjoyed this one.

[@alecj3454]

You and Chris Barnes are my favorite PBA pros - so to see you have two close matches was cool. I cant believe you tied. Regardless -- This tourney was a huge step forward towards your total domination of the PBA tour.....Congrats! Its coming together, just keep on truckin!

[@Reflecter16]

When I first drilled and used my Gem I thought me and it just didn't get along and for a while I put it up. In the last few months, I got better at reading what a ball can do, how I should use it, as well as studying other aspects of the game. I can say that the Gem is always in my bag now. Much love to you and Jesse. Keep on rolling!

[@livarusgta8288]

Its so amazing to see my 2 favorite bowlers being your first 2 matches at the start of the video !!!, belmo and tj wow i love ur quality content darren u just earned yourself a subscriber👍👍💪💪👏👏

[@shaunholland6533]

You have one of the smoothest releases I have ever seen. Looks effortless when the ball hits the floor..

[@Batstone22]

Great video man! Cheering for you and wishing you all the best!

[@mattwebster1018]

Barnes is still slinging it!! Looks like he has more rev now than a few years ago lol great job D Tang!!! Keep on going!

[@ericcarter1951]

It’s nice to see a match play again and the way you bowled definitely looked good, despite ball and pin reaction saying otherwise. Here’s hoping a title is just around the corner now 😁

[@JackandTom-tz8kj]

Please keep more of the head-to-head match play coming, Darren and Jesse. Great to see you beat the stars, and your path to cashing last week. The usual "group" bowling shots just don't provide that type of perspective. Bravo!

[@Matt_Holcomb]

Great video man. Glad to see you're making Match play and bowling strong. Hope to see you if you guys make it to Colorado again on this tour. Take care man

[@joshdichoso3216]

Good job this event! Can't wait to meet you in Milwaukee for the first time!

[@bige300]

One thing that I notice is how well you keep your hand up the back of the ball on your release. Will see you on the telecast soon if you keep that up. Great work!!!

[@DGgamez13]

Love the content brother!! You were bowling good dont get in your head. Can't wait for you next video!!

[@kevinjohnson4498]

I bowled against future PBA pro and 1x Major winner Gary Faulker several times in high school. He was obviously the best youth bowler in the area even as a freshman and was avg 200+ as a junior. I always loved going up against him and bowled some of my best series against him, including my first 600 my sophomore year (I was ~170 avg at that time). Even managed to take a few games off him, my absolute best could compete with his B game. I think he might have struggled a little bit against us bc he is a lefty and we had several lefties on the team (including me) so he had to deal with more oil pattern adjustments than he was used to and we were more used to it playing together all the time.

[@billroberts7889]

Excellent run, keep working hard it will pay off.

[@rollingreene1220]

You're one of the brightest spots in bowling to watch - I can fully relate to your struggles and how you teach a master class in overcoming them

[@thomasdinh2753]

I like how you keep your mic on at all times . keep it up !

[@matthewthomas1335]

I wondered why you names the video the way you did but you're right, that was the most exciting part of the video.

[@coopercollins1780]

Looking for some ball advice. I’m a right hander I average 215, id say I’m mid to higher side of rev rate. I stand dead center and get my ball out to about to 10. Looking to go a little straighter even kind of like a Walter ray angle to the pocket. What’s a good ball to do something like that? Been looking at the purple hammer urethane

[@timmonaghan5907]

Roto Grip Hustle bowling ball might be what you're looking for. Has great colors too.

[@coopercollins1780]

@@timmonaghan5907 I’ll look into it, thank you

[@mshane11]

excellent editing and impeccable vibes as always!

[@rekanoiter4480]

Great to see you in match play with the Big Dogs. Good bowling sir. Stay hungry!

[@robertreyes5036]

Hello Darren. Was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to handle lanes that are super super dry and I’m a two hander. Went bowling yesterday for the first time in a while and I realize the rust factor is real, but my god the lanes were dry. Like there was no oil showing up on my ball after they came back from the return. I struggle hard with dry lanes. When the lanes are oily it’s so much more forgiving for me. I can make some mistakes and still get near the pocket and have some makeable spares. Thank you for the help

[@MeatCognition]

I don't know how you guys bowl so consistently over so many games. I bowl 3-4 games and my arm feels like it's about to fall off lol.

[@Seanph25]

Repetition

[@catherinestolzenburg421]

Love your videos keep up the hard work

[@dandistelhorst9431]

i absolutely love this guys attitude

[@davidoiknine9751]

@darren tang what was the the first ball that u We're throwing it was purple,orange and pinkish what's the ball name ??

[@bigg2226]

We need this kinda bowling from you in 2024!

[@vee6371]

really enjoyed the video it was super chill and relaxing

[@lucidxchrist2133]

Stupid question. But a majority of the block you used a gem it looks like? And then went to an infinite physix or something else that would go longer once it broke down?

[@ianm85]

I’ve been watching your videos for a few months now, but didn’t realize “who you were” till I saw your pic in the bowling ball magazine and then in the top 10 for averages on the pba. You’re putting out great videos and seem super down to earth. Just some guy who loves to bowl

[@chinanumberone7723]

Proud to be Australian with my man Jason Belmonte ❤

[@TEFL-vb6dw]

That 7 and 10 pin knew what they were doing. That 7-10 split but then the 10 pin falls slowly is a crime.

[@loststars5785]

I watched you guys in Harmony in Colorado Springs that was crazy I got really into bowling after watching you guys!

[@allenkyonosukecruz7567]

Simonson's release 😍, as a 2 handed bowler I love it

[@tomzergarcia2016]

Nice bowling bro. Rough ending but I think you still threw the ball well. Keep up the good work.

[@716Adventures]

@2:15 when Darren goes thru the 3 pin, its his leg that messed his shot up, he doubles the previous 2 shots by keeping his leg down and controlling his balance, the shot he goes thru the 3 pin his leg is flying up ruining his great form. - just wanted to share.

[@DarrenTang]

Thanks coach

[@Thumper1968]

Alright D Tang. There you go! Keep that momentum going!

[@rekanoiter4480]

Always enjoy the chillin sound tracks. Can you post up😎 the artists??

[@emilioenriquez7544]

That game with chris barnes had a wild ending two legends battling it out man

[@kevinnguyen8498]

Foot locker called. They’re wondering why Butturff hasn’t clocked in for work yet.

[@JerryGamesAlot]

Could someone possibly explain to me turn order for these matches? Newer to bowling and don't know if it's just how its edited or if it is actually different than switching each frame

[@carneios08]

Not sure if you'll answer, but I noticed that you changed balls and adjusted your approach a lot throughout this run, starting in your last frame against Belmo. At what point should I consider a ball change as opposed to moving over a couple boards, decreasing ball speed, etc.? Personally, I never change balls except in extreme scenarios. Just curious on your thoughts. Thanks for the content and good luck in your 2023 year.

[@DarrenTang]

We have to be quick to stay ahead of the moves out here. If we wait too long, we’re giving pins away to the field

[@TheOtherCaleb]

Daugherty’s release is SO smooth.

[@bradmorgan3797]

I love that rounded shape of the gem

[@l3mon_v606]

Why does Butturff look like a WWE Referee? LOL

[@G4zzzzz]

wow Truly Classy, Great bowling Darren.

[@randmiller88]

When a strike lines up with the beat 🔥🔥🔥

[@AsylumSaint]

You have single handedly sold about a 100 Exotic Jems just from the videos alone this week. Ball looks sweet.

[@frommi_24]

Like what is that ball that you are through Ming most of the time, like the one that is orange and yellow. Is it the exotic gem

[@bowlingballreview3233]

Do you have a plan going into elim brackets or no if so, what is it

[@Inquire703]

After watching this vlog and the music in the beginning of this video, had me bowl my best game in league.

[@tonysanta3497]

D Tang!!!!! Just drill an arsenal of all the Phisix ever released.. You always kill it with those bowling balls.

[@robertreyes5036]

That gem was money for you all tournament. Keep grinding

[@neezydniro5838]

the music choice of your videos be fire

[@cooperfarmer4744]

Darren random question do you keep surface on you night road or box finish

[@DividedFERGY]

what song is 8:30

[@AdubsMMA]

I just got my storm pitch black today… I now have a 5 ball arsenal. 🤘🏼😅

[@CalcanoMusic]

This type of content this game needs!

[@phealeeboy88]

What's the lay out on that orange ball you rolling.

[@alexadams1627]

I didn't realize how many games you have to bowl in this tournament. Do you ice your shoulder down like a baseball pitcher after the tournament? What is your off season training (weights, cardio, crossfit etc)? Congrats!

[@chadmorrislionsinparis]

good bowling and good music selection.

[@designsinorbit]

If I were there I would have told you to slow the ball speed, which obviously you finally did. You need me man!

[@jakeschick4763]

Hey Darren, if you could only have one solid and one pearl what would you pick?

[@brianparsa7794]

Match play! Nice end to the swing, Darren!

[@mattholliman4080]

Darren is one of my top bowlers. I know you know what's best but just from outside looking in, I think your a little to quick with ball changing. If you stay in that gem more you strike more. Things get hairy when the ball guessing starts. Your the man.....

[@DarrenTang]

Have to take risks. Playing safe will never get you to shows.

[@mattholliman4080]

@@DarrenTang yeah your right. Probably why I lost in my tournament last Tuesday. I bowled two good games with my TnT, but my last four games I couldn't find a good look with it. But kept trying instead of taking a chance with a different ball. Great content as always man and hopefully one day ill have the honor of sharing lanes with you.

[@shaolinm5540]

Tough Match Plays vs Superstars Lineup Goodluck D Tang

[@ProfSemiAMBolwer]

Damn Jacob out there looking like a suburban foot locker employee, but seriously though, that match against Simo looked exactly like what happens to me in leauge

[@glenkamida71]

Thank you for showing the 3-pin first shot against Butterz. I won't get pissed when I do similar.

[@tinusturbo4910]

That orange ball was fire, almost only strikes!

[@stevenseagal4664]

I liked it when you rolled the first ball the colorful one vs Belmo. That ball had best action I think.

Song at 9:45?

Hi Darren, that was a gauntlet of PBA Pros to beat ! Yeah, it's tough but keep getting better ! Thanks !
