[@insaneiaq]

Just in case you still thought it was the bowling balls that have inflated scores, let this put it to rest. It has been and will continue to be the lane conditions that have blown the scoring pace out of reasonability. Modern synthetic lane beds + modern conditioners + sanction lane machines = inflated scores.

[@Final_Sora]

Modern conditioners and lane machines make far more of an impact then people realize. The way they can lay the oil down is far more accurate now, big difference compared to the past.

[@harveywallbanger2899]

Yes but bowling mechanics have declined greatly while scores go up. Hackers rule the bowling world.

[@illumitabris]

The tech with the oil definitely helps, especially with consistency since the oil patterns are so much more consistent that pros can fine tune a lot easier than back in the day. Although the game is also adjusting at the pro level to make up for it. It's not like the pros back then were worse or better, it was just a different generation.

[@stompingpeak2043]

Well what do you expect? Oil on the lanes is made different and it's applied consistently. Then the balls are made/drilled much better with actual science and physics(same as better oils). Look at it this way. Every single thing in life has advanced in the past 40 years(we aren't still depending on payphones or dial up internet right) so why wouldn't bowling? Like lanes that last longer, easier to maintain, and cheaper to produce(aka synthetic lanes). Then bowling balls that actually can handle the better/thicker oil that's on the lanes and keep energy downlane(where old balls were made for old oils and conditions. These balls are horrible on modern lanes because they have like 4 boards hook). I absolutely despise people that complain about better advancement in bowling. It does nothing but hurt the sport with all the old 180avg bowlers moaning about not being able to keep up. Yeah I seen plenty of 200avg bowlers when urethane was all people used and the same houses with modern lanes have around the same number of people. It's not just the equipment. If that was the case every single person would have a 280 avg. When in reality the average of all league bowlers is probably 140. You have to practice and be good to do good on tour. If anything people now take it more seriously than ever where before there was zero consistently in anything.

I use a Manhattan rubber ball from the 1960's as my spare ball. I'm a righty that had major 10-pin issues in high school, and nothing worked (including plastic). I picked that up off the rack one Sunday morning, made all five 10-pins I left in a three-game series, and kept it. It makes for a fun story when I take it out of the bag alongside equipment 50 years its junior!

So I used to use Petraglia LT48, Columbia 300, and other 1970's balls....what I'd like to see are lanes oiled like we bowled on in the 60's and 70's....1962 AMF oiler with 3 spray nozzles about 12" above the lane.... As it went down the lane there would be a cloud above the machine...there was no putting additional oil in the center than on the outside.....this was on wood lanes, not sythetic....that's the challenge I'd like to see...thanks for the video..

I'm trying to figure out how bowlers in the 30s were able to hold on to a 16 pound ball with only their middle finger & thumb.

[@daviddixon6408]

Those old rubber balls were rocks. When I started bowling all we had was rubber and plastic balls on a wood lanes with lacquer finish, no urethane or reactive.

[@dontswin]

That's right I was there. Started with the plastic crap as a kid in the early 70's, The oil was nearly dripping off the ball after the lanes were just greased, I never could get much hook then. Later on I moved up in the world and got a rubber bowl and I was like wow look at thing hook, I never had a big sweeping curve but more of a nasty frieght train hook. Way more control it seemed for me with the rubber ball. During the very late 80's, early 90's, I was able to get that ball practically within an eighth of an inch onto a pin on wooden lanes. My best score in the early 90's was a 267 in league play. I have no idea how urethane would be even back then. I'm trying to figure out which way to go nowadays because I'd like to get back into it. I'm a bit older now but I still have a great amount of upper body strength. It's all so very confusing these days.

[@kenjenwright]

Funny, Brunswick Mineralite's were made during the conservation of rubber around WW2. They are not made of 100% rubber. Given how they smell ( like Sh1t) when you drill them I've always wonder what the additive was mixed into the rubber. Under no circumstances do they react like a true rubber ball such as a Manhattan Rubber or an AMF 3 Dot and if I'm not mistaken they don't have a weight block. NO, I'm not dating myself I started drilling balls at the age of 10, wait that still makes me old :-) Enjoy the adventure!!

[@chuckschillingvideos]

It's almost certainly a high sulfur rubber compound making that odor.

[@doctorrobert60]

I started bowling in the early 60s. First ball was Brunswick Black Beauty but do not know what core that had nor this relic from the past. Would be interesting to find wood lane to see how it would react compared to synthetic lane surface. Was fun and interesting video Packy.

The lanes were extremely dry, so I decided to pick it up and roll it like it was intended - full roller 🙂 (I'm not naturally a full roller. I just knew in theory how to do it). Shot a 180 or so, which wasn't bad for goofing off with a release i had no prior experience with.

If it's insanely wet then this ball wouldn't work nearly as well. These rubber balls only respond to friction as Packy mentioned. Friction = dry parts of the lane.

Your videos are by the most entertaining bowling videos on the internet. Even non bowlers can enjoy your videos, they are so relaxing to watch. In particular your videos with Mitch and Kevin Williams are a pleasure to watch. That ball could be useful; it should make an excellent spare ball on very dry conditions. Years ago I loved my Manhattan Rubbers. They roll better and hit harder than the Mineralite and AMF 3 dot. The green Manhattan Rubber believe it or not was harder than the black, and used for drier conditions. It did go straighter than the black one, but it hit like pud, even on very dry lanes. My first few balls were Black Beauties. I think that they reacted as well as Manhattan Rubbers. I finished in the top 4 in tryouts for the University of Nebraska bowling team in 1975 with the 3 dot, on fairly oily lanes with a long pattern, but the ball was awful. In 1978 I got an LT48 which was the softest or one of the softest rubber balls ever made I loved the way that it rolled, and my carry percentage was exceptional with it. I wish that I could have hit the pocket more often. Ernie Schlegel was fantastic with rubber balls on tough lane conditions. When I tried to throw the ball straighter, I called it Schlegeling the lanes, but I wasn't very good at it. You might prefer an original black Manhattan Rubber or a Black Beauty to your Mineralite.

I paused the video at 0:37 just after asking how much we think you'd score with this ball. Because I doubt it'll get you anywhere near the hook that you're used to getting I think you'll be lucky to throw anything higher than a 170. So with that said my guess is a 167.

[@Mista808]

4 shots in and I already realize I'm going to be way off. Unless of course you suddenly start throwing 3 or 4 splits in a row that you're unable to pick up. With that said the line of this ball surprisingly looks very close and reminds me of the Pitch Black. I'm sure the Pitch Black has a little more hooking potential (I own one and know it can hook a great deal on dryer patterns) but yeah.. I should've known better! Straighter is ALWAYS GREATER. Especially for Pro's with dead on accuracy.

It’s amazing how much difference one pound makes on how a bowling ball hits although some of the balls from back then where pushing almost 17lbs and I know at one point there was an 18lb ball my old house had one it was an old rubber ball, couldn’t bowl with it in league just open bowlers

[@PantherBlitz]

I love your tribute to Smokey :)

[@Mista808]

You're partially correct with this statement. With a RUBBER BALL it makes a big difference from a 16 pound ball down to say a 14 pound ball. However with the technology of today's bowling balls there's not much of a difference going from a 16 to a 14. This is why 90% of the Pro bowlers of today are using 15 pound balls when just 20 years ago 99% of the them threw 16 pound equipment. Even the 14 pound balls of today are better than the 16 pound balls from the past. I personally have two friends on my team that have both thrown perfect 300 games multiple times using 14 pound balls. They are indeed the reason why I may finally go down to 14 to pick up my ball speed a tad. 20 years ago I would've laughed in their face and followed it up with something like "awww.. cute.. you're throwing a girls ball eh!?" I wouldn't have been caught dead with a 14 pound ball back in the day but now it doesn't make much of a difference.
