It's Game Day! | PBA Tournament of Champions

[@travis89civic]

Brad, Such a classy answer to a broad and complex question.

[@atbsigma]

Travis Dumler i agree. I could tell that the young man was not as impressed and may have felt he could compete even as he tried to downplay his abilities. Even better than an answer of ‘lace it up and come out to try it’, resources... support system... I had to stop and pay attention to that. Having spoken to Brad in person myself I can vouch for what a down to earth person he is and how much love he has for the game.

[@CoachAshley1983]

As a high school girl's bowling coach, THIS is the BEST advice I've ever heard for young aspiring bowlers! Brad, Im not even sure you realize the power of your voice. You guys are successful in bowling and with this channel, but don't underestimate your ability as a speaker. You could do motivational speeches to a wide range of people, but especially to young bowlers. I've always enjoyed this channel, especially for the laughter you guys bring, but this was on a whole new level. Absolutely awesome Brad! 🤩 👏🏽🎳👏🏽🎳👏🏽🎳👏🏽🎳👏🏽🎳👏🏽

[@lindabradhall2790]

Met Brad at the HoF in Arlington (I'm the tall gray haired guy that told you to get in front of me to get your video shot, also named Brad). He's as genuine in person as he comes across on these vlogs. Love your advice to the young man in this one. "Always be nice to people". SO Important!!! And for those that have made it, be nice to those on your way up, because they may be the same ones you run across on your way back down. Love what you guys are doing for the sport...good bowling!!!

[@MartinOcando]

Excellent advice, Braddy boy. Excellent advice. One thing I've learned over the years is to exercise Patience. Desperation and trying to make things happen before its time is your worst enemy. Things will eventually click, whatever they are, at the right time when it will the best for everyone. You just have to keep insisting and trusting yourself that if you work hard enough, it will happen.

[@michaelplowman8674]

That was great advice Brad gave that young man. I'm a purely recreational bowler in the 150s range. For Christmas I got myself a 16 lb Pitch Black. I wanted something that would have more umph going through the pins. I decided to change my grip to fingertips instead of the full fingers I've been doing for 30 years. It hasn't gone well, but each week it's been better. Yesterday, I decided to pull out my standard ball and give it some love since I hadn't bowled with it since before Christmas. First game was sloppy but 2nd game was a great, for me, 188. Then I pulled out the Black to give it two more games of learning. 180 and a 132. Best game with the Black. Just got to keep on plugging.

[@cju7942]

Kyle's release is amazing

[@silverback1017]

4:14 Bohn has the prettiest release in bowling. He's the Ken Griffey, Jr. of bowling.

[@ryankeeble7795]

Best part of that comment is that both of them are left handed.

[@silverback1017]

He has the true definition of a pendulum swing, very loose and free. It just looks effortless. Every sport has that one player that makes the game look easy. Jordan had the perfect physique, not too big or skinny, not too tall or short, not too powerful or weak... when he jumped he floated.

[@neooooo6127]

i think ej tackett does. i cant really say much cause im a 2 hander though

[@CoachAshley1983]

@NeoooooGaming I've known E.J. since he was a baby and have had the privilege of watching him grow up, as I'm a few years older. It truly is remarkable to see the transformation in his game over the years. If you could have seen him as just a TINY 5 year old...he struggled to pick the ball up off the rack, toddle to the line, and then use every ounce of strength he had to throw it with two hands down the lane. From that, to the smooth, one-handed, high rev player he is today...it's incredible. There was never a time, in all the years I spent in his parent's bowling center, that E.J. wasn't practicing. Instead of listening to the critics who said his size would be an obstacle, that kid put in the work day in and day out. I've really never seen anyone work that hard. It's been a lot of fun to watch his journey the past 20+ years. 😊

[@chrisreddy8958]

Your videos each week of the tournaments keep me going! Laying in bed sick last 2 days with pneumonia, keep the vids coming!

[@johnruckey6471]

Very sage advice from Brad. Life is all about the journey. Good job. That’s why I watch.

[@simonsardine2925]

It's interesting how this channel and your performance has grown over the last couple of years. I'm not your first subscriber, but I've been around awhile. This year feels different. Don't let it get to your head, but Kyle, Brad, Kris, Darren... I think you guys are going to shake up who we normally see on television. I hope you come to IL this year, I missed last year due to stuff, but it seems like a lot of fun. Thanks for what you do.

[@davidhartman5594]

Last I saw Kris was actually in the #1 slot, so congrats Kris! From what I saw you were slaying it! Hope the house sees a little more success in the closing hours 👍

[@MarvinTheMusicMan]

Hey guys, just a thought....When you start a new tournament, could you spend a moment giving us an overview of the week ahead. EG: The format from qualifying to finals. Other tournaments & events that are part of overall event. Then on the last video of the week, could you tell us how everyone in 'The House Squad' finished. You asked for some ideas....I would love to see you guys doing something at an event, that is outside of the bowling. 1. The House squad Vs Belmo's squad. A different challenge each week such as 5 a side soccer, pool, darts, frisby throwing, go karting, plus others. (The young upstarts from the house take on the 'more mature' Belmo and colleagues) Lots of semi competitive fun with maybe forfeits for the losing team. Give it a catchy title and a silly trophy and this could be a regular 10-15 minute weekly video. (Ham it up with some WWE type verbals to camera) 2.Bowlers (or The House) Vs fans/ kids: Giant Rock, paper, scissors. EG Kyle against all the kids together. (Brad judging & organising) Everyone does RPS and those that Kyle beats, sit down, Repeat until you have one kid left. Then one more time and if the kid beats Kyle he gets some merch from you. 3. The PBA does Karaoke...Find a Karaoke bar in the town, have a drink or 2...nuff said !! Cheers from Manchester, England.

[@jeffoconnor1192]

You guys are killing it with the content this year. Keep up the good work. Really enjoying it.

[@jamest7597]

That advice you gave Resonated with me on so many levils thats why i love to watch you and Kyle

[@300deebo]

Great to see P.D.W. and P.B.3!

[@SL-ph4hf]

Wow Brad, your advice to Brandon is Gold. " Resources" is so important in every filed, sometimes we are so focus on how to get better, and keep on practicing, and working out to build strength, but after this video I learned something more valuable which is Brad said, to be top is only for a few people and what's more important is the journey, the process, the resources....I've met Kyle a few times, haven't had chance to meet Brad. Would love to meet Brad someday!

[@steveoshady]

Can you tell prather to spray that pan with some non stick cooking spray.

[@AverageLeagueHack]

some kind of cooking lube veg oil, shortening even butter

[@TraumaER]

He's watching his figure.

[@rkw221]

nope, just use real butter. It really is healthier. Or baste them, very yummy that way too.

[@Brentster1953]

I also use butter there, along with salt & pepper, maybe even seasoned salt. Cajun even!!

[@rkw221]

@@Brentster1953 I recently learned a nifty trick with scrambled eggs. Apparently it's been around a very long time. when making scrambled eggs, omelets or similar, add a tiny bit of baking powder (not baking soda). To 3-5 eggs I add between 1/16th to 1/8th tsp or so. Beat it into the eggs. The baking powder will make the eggs rise. I found it's a nifty trick to make big tall blocks if scrambled eggs in the microwave too. The BP seems to control stiffness. Works great in your egg pan on stove too. Give ot a shot, search around it's a cool variation on standard scrambled eggs.

[@kst1983]

As always great real world content and advise. Keep it up guys you're changing the dial on the PBA!

[@robertott9925]

Best advice I have heard in years Keep up the work.

[@atlas-x5717]

Good luck!!👍🏼

[@jessemiller3882]

MY MAN Brandon towards the end. I used to bowl against him in youth leagues. It was nice meeting and talking to you last night Brad

[@tylerm7468]

Everybody looking at the phone screens when watching Brad and Kyle bowl (10:10)😂😂😂. Enjoying vlog, thanks for everything you guys do.

[@richardpoplis6777]

Keep plugging Brad and Kyle.. stay positive

[@pudgepoon908]

Brandon: How do I go get better so I can go pro? Brad: it’s not for everybody kid

[@doctorrobert60]

Great video guys! Tell Kyle Troup sending good wishes his Mother's way for her health!

[@heminemvevoaustralia4632]

Merch idea: silhouette of Brad Miller behind the camera with his thumb up with text; "THE VLOG"

[@Bubba93000]

i bought my first ball today and super excited to use it for the first time

[@johng8665]

It’d be sweet to see some of the spare conversions every now & then

[@donniemjr75]

Tell Prather to put some butter in that pan for the eggs! Lol

[@themanofmovies]

if you trying to do an over easy egg best way i found to do it is just load the pan up with some butter get it hot then open the egg and with a spoon just take the hot butter and run it over the top of the egg to cook the top so u dont have to worry bout trying to flip and break the yoke

[@toddwebb8257]

Did you see how the limes were discolored from being on the hot toaster . Burnt limes are great for after squad drinks. Lol. Loving all the content and tips. Great job.

[@MrKane196]

Getting excited over flipping eggs is content I relate to.

[@Red87star]

"This is your brain. This is your brain on bowling." per old anti-drug commercials

[@devon9290]

I got a zing on Sunday night, I’m loving it

[@slenderbenderer]

Inspirational speech brad

[@S.Clause]

Practice practice practice best advice out there to improve your game

[@joshmoore4976]

bowled there in qualifying for jr gold loved that house

[@frankstroveliii6229]

Just ordered my Bowling Is Life hoodie. Keep up the great videos, guys. Appreciate what you do.

[@sheliasmith6185]

Looking forward to the tour coming to Columbus. Don't know if my son and I will run into you, but I do plan to stop by the bowling center to check out y'all's merch, especially the hoodie. It's cold here. 😂

[@robp.7769]

Let's get it Kyle!!

[@Brentster1953]

When I was a teen, I created a lane on construction paper, all of the boards , and arrows. then cut out a ball with the curve I had. Could place start on bigger middle board. Essentially that ball, with track allowed a look at what arrow, or board, to aim for.

[@raymonduelk6567]

Is there a pro tournament in the St Louis area?

[@sams6055]

Can EBI staff throw Brunswick equipment after the buyout? thought Kyle was only staffed with EBI?

[@zachspera6662]

Always waiting for these videos bro. Keep bowling good and make the top 24 for round robin match play, and see if you can make the show we all know you can.

[@charlesrobertson2412]

Good luck, looking forward till tomorrow 💯✋🏻

[@colbjay99]

Wow those were some tough lane conditions. I would struggle to break 150.

[@harrypa946]

Great videos Keep plugging away ten up ten down

[@allglorytogod12]

Great advice, Brad.

[@rkw221]

freaking goofballs! Nice to see Kyle punching out some Radical gear. I'm still stalking gear options and like a lot of what i see in the line. What i really like the look of though is the Motiv Forge Fire that Tackett throws. At one time my game was similar to Tackett, not close to his level but i made money on amateur rounds. But the Fire Forge looks very similar reaction wise to my old money maker from Storm, the Fire Power (resin, symmetric of course, Curelon 2). That was my go to for quite a while. Curious about today's Quantum Fire (red pearl). It combined with the original Brunswick Sapphire Zone (surface mod via good old well maintained Luster King) were my first balls after an 8 yr layoff and i won a $1200 tourney basically right out if the gate after just a month of practice. Keep the great ball info coming. Drill the Squatch Hybrid dang you Kyle! hahaha...btw, none of the guys in the house except Prather are anything like my playing days style. Still it's a blast to watch ball reactions under live play not instructional vids. Shoot lights out in Friday's squad! Wanna see the house own the show!

[@jimmypoynter65]

Brad is quoting garyvee

[@GrimChu69]

2:48 Schoooool book right there!

[@cajunice3588]

I hope Kyle makes the show I'm pulling for ya

[@pierogiravioli2387]

Awesome advice Brad!!! It's a grind that's for sure, even when you're an up and comer.

[@trunkmonkey3716]

Moving the limes off of the toaster will decrease their browning of their bottoms....... lol But your videos are always awesome, keep it up and KEEP STRIKING BOYS!!! GOOD LUCK!!!

[@brandoothekid7456]

That was a great question

[@jeffdixon1224]

I’m hoping to become a professional like you guys cause I have always loved bowling and wanted to become like you guys

[@gamingbowler1014]

Did brad bowl

[@_thekingdavid_]

consistency is key

[@timfox4415]

Go Kyle! Please get Pete Weber on the blog that would be great.thanks

[@RicksWorld91]

Hey Brad & Kyle, are either of you (or both) coming to Australia for the tournament in Tasmania?

[@mikeroker123]

Guy at the end is just like: “😐🙄🤨🧐😐”

[@lukes4110]

You say the lanes are difficult and I believe you, but I just wish I could bowl on it myself just to see what I could do

[@broski818]

What's the name of the track @2:20? That beat is hard

[@dennyb76]

Great vlog, look forward to new videos. One question? Besides paying for the drilling of your bowling balls(per hole), is there any additional cost? Are the ball costs taken care via sponsorship?

[@philburks4913]

EJ Tacketts ball looked amazing going down lane

[@rkw221]

I lust after that Forge Fire. Beautifully even ball reaction in Tackett's hands.

[@wbrouilette]

What song is playing at the 10:30 mark?

[@jasonheinzen1125]

I would love to tour with you guys just to cook and maybe bowl a little. 😆

[@TrendSettaRico]

Good day 1 guys keep at it day 2 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 #TheHouse #RespectTheGrind

[@michaelplowman8674]

Jake from State Farm was in the VLOG!!!!

[@Habeev07]

Just keep grinding. One of these tournaments: Title coming #TheHouse

[@thepug991]

pros also string more than 2 or 3 strikes together each game is something pros do, unlike me. but im better than my friends so that's nice

[@vinyanleo2320]

Kyle has something in his hair at the breakfast of “champions!” Hahahaha!!!!!!! You guys are awesome though.

[@RockyPony97]

Kyle's style looks eerily similar to Pete weber's

[@bowling.videos6681]

Thomas Larson throws a great strike Brad: Nick just farted

[@Fullcontactmotors]

Love to see Pete Webber in the house one night

[@rowlettothepast1882]

I’m gonna have to watch this at school

[@thomaspeltz8577]

I would like to barter some bowling training for my cooking skills training. Let me know when you're in NJ.

[@warmetaldoom]

I was gonna go to bed but no, bed can wait

[@TannerAcosta]

Song at 2:20?

[@PDXVoiceTeacher]

It's the day of the show y'all.

Bowled with prather in SSJBA tell him I said hello!

[@cyworld2707]

I'm rooting for Kris Prather to win the TOC.

[@jacobracisz3994]

Was everyone playing inside because the oil is flat and long? I’m always confused by the choice of playing inside vs more direct

[@joey_1209]

To me it looks like you need a little little bit more backin motion to kick out the six pin Sooo keep pop🎳ping it

[@ddtalk]

Looks like in this tournament..."straighter could be greater "!!! a slower speed may be another key to carry those corner pins. If all that fails then break out the wrecking ball! By the way..." The Wrecking Ball" would be a cool name for a bowling ball! How about a T-Shirt that says Brad and Kyle Rule!! Bam! You're Welcome!!😎

[@Red87star]

Feedback for B&K: Not a fan of the super quick zoom in & out & all over when just talking @9:00. Reminds me of the Office. Dizzying & unnecessary. Stellar stuff otherwise! GL at ToC Kyle!
