Rule of 31 | Part 2 | WHICH BOWLING BALL IS BEST??

[@Htiger3841705]

THAT's what a video I keep looking for! Different styles, different lengths, and different ball choices make this video much more insightful and useful than ever. I usually bowl on the medium and medium-short pattern in the league. As a two-handed bowler, I really agree with the ball choice of Jimmo. Love you all and your insightful videos!

[@usdsk8r1231]

Rule of 31 has been working out for me, cant wait to watch this vid!

[@leozeggert1916]

It would be helpful when talking balls other than urethane, would be to say if they're solid, hybrid, or pearl. I do really appreciate the content that is being put out!

[@sneedtw]

Great video! Defiantly that 39' to 41' length on sport shots even though you cant miss like on the house shot you're still in your comfort zone where you normally target.

[@alexanderbreen4010]

Can’t wait for this video... just got a pitch black and I now understand why lefty’s LOVE URETHANE oh my gosh is that thing amazing for me... my new favorite ball and it’s not even close

[@luizinhiolv]

Thank you so much for this lesson and the way you balance the examples. Including both styles are the best because it doesn't matter what your style is, both apply. It is not fair that many lessons are taught to everyone but just one-handed guys are on the lane. I can use both styles, but I prefer to use two handed one because of health issues. Here we watch how to select the arsenal to deal with one of each different pattern lengths according to your style and your DNA (PAP, REV, SPEED, TILT, ROTATION). The Rule of 31 can suggest you to find your "exit point", but when you are about to play, you should have already known which ball to throw and after transition begins what to do and if it is needed, change ball. With this lesson the strategy is covered which is an essential part of the game. The whole video series are extraordinary, they cover all you need to succeed in this game, except the physical training, this is up to us. JR Pro Shop: now it is time to cover "The Mental Game" part 1, don't you think so? Gracias y saludos desde México.

[@jrproshop]

That's a great idea

[@JKGYHTM]

Love when you guys upload, always bring fun and education together into one, best bowling channel on the Tube. 😎

[@jrproshop]

Dang thanks Ryan!

[@KylarStern86]

Just want to say thank you for the videos....just recently got back into bowling after a good 10+ year layoff.....I am rebuilding my arsenal and you guys helping me out alot. I will hopefully be going back to bowling in a league in the fall/winter if I can make the money and work schedule togather. Thank you again and can't wait for next video.

[@tjcarmichael07]

I love the 45' dragon pattern. Titanium would be my second choice

[@MemphisNick]

🔥🔥🔥 like always. Wished y’all would have added the layouts for each balls y’all used.

[@wolfpackgaming8206]

my favorite pattern is 44 ft big ben, averaged a 238 on it and it was my first JBT ever. can't wait to bowl on it again

[@machinethesun9243]

GREAT video!!! This was so helpful, thank you so much. I've been trying to learn this arsenal stuff for awhile and have had a general idea, but this breakdown for patterns was excellent, makes sense now.

[@barretod21]

Great Video gentlemen. Awesome information. Sometimes the struggle is what ball to throw when. What to start with. This video really gives great info about what ball to start with. How do you know when to switch balls? Do you try and play the same line with a different ball or just keep moving or adjusting speed?

[@jrproshop]

The adjustments are up to you, what ever you feel more comfortable with. As for ball changes, it's when the ball isn't going through the pins properly (leaving lots of corner pins when hitting the pocket)

[@daroncowart9375]

I prefer a medium sport pattern. Awesome video. I LOVE the way you guys break down the different concepts.

[@jrproshop]

Thanks daron!

[@MrDreday510]

Medium to long I enjoy the most. Matches up very well with my rev rate and opening up the lanes is never a bad option as long as I have the right ball in my hand. I had to recently chase my idol synergy with my nuclear cell on a ths for league. Synergy would not carry where the nuclear carried every shot besides the two ten pins I left lol. As always guys, superb informative video and keep up the great work.

[@iamasooner86]

Those jerseys are sick!!! I’m not Canadian but I’ll support the shop here in the US if you sell those!

[@jrproshop]

Hmm that's an idea

[@spankreasy18]

Where are you guys looking when throwing down lane on the approach? Thanks for the awesome informative videos!

[@jrproshop]

Most of us use the arrows

[@TheRagingRayn]

I love longer patterns because I can play straighter, but I score better on short when I can just bank urethane off the 1-2 board.

[@nittz66]

Like the fact of your videos being very informative. Being you guys are all young, curious as to what speed you all are averaging, and what your thoughts are, of possible equipment for seniors bowling in house leagues? For myself I am 68 and would like a consistent arc and roll around 10 board with my speed around 14? Also what are your thoughts on wrist braces? thanks

[@jeffclark6552]

Awesome video as always! Thanks boys 🤙🏻

[@bobjanicki9045]

I love your videos I have to get a pitch black

[@turtlejeremy6980]

I prefer longer patterns. Pearls and symmetrical hybrids are my favorites to throw

[@cwalke3408]

This was great, learned so much

[@nick3black8]

I really needed this video

[@michaelbraun5943]

Jimoo is crazy accurate...awesome! At what length down lane are you generally wanting your breakpoint to be?

[@jrproshop]

Editing sure makes it seems that way doesn't it hahah 😉 breakpoint = end of the pattern

[@noahl4598]

Awesome videos!

[@strkes14]

Great video! Love the info you guys are giving. Do you have any good women bowlers near you to share that perspective as well? Thanks for making the videos interesting and fun. Love the nicknames!

[@jrproshop]

There are a couple really good women in our house. Will just need to convince them to be on camera 😂

[@angrywally4087]

mine is 33 ft Short is my Favorite

[@connorallen9711]

I like shorter patterns. Like 39 and under.

[@Majic_strikes]

Favorite would have to be long like shark or medium like bear. I have to put some work in on short patterns before junior gold.

[@Majic_strikes]

Matter a fact I’m bowling on a 32 foot pattern rn and doing great

[@enigma8464]

41' is the usual house shot i bowl on every week. sometimes it changes to 44' or 35', but i get the best out of 41'

[@marcus48935]

I would always prefer medium oil patterns, around 38-41ft. anything higher I would struggle, due to relatively high ball speed. Shorter patterns are rare for me....

[@aydengianes2515]

Do you have a foot work consistency video on your channel

[@usdsk8r1231]

Jungo's reaction at kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKW0cn2vpZVle6s makes me want to buy that ball just for that hahaha

[@ralphjerome2442]

Long patterns 40ft.+ heavy oil flat gutter to gutter, shot maker pattern.

[@Mista808]

What balls are recommended for a typical house shot?

[@Highway69theoriginal]

Nice job!

[@victorbogen1558]

More hook & rpms from 2 hander then 1 handerd ps gmo reminds me of pba Johnson Belmont style

[@JKGYHTM]

Random side question, whenever you release your ball quickly and smoothly, it makes the popping noise. However, if you dont always pop does that mean you’re not getting out of it with proper fundamentals or is it just a matter of poor fitment?

[@jrproshop]

Great question. When Jimoo releases the ball and it makes that popping noise, it is usually because he is releasing the ball with higher axis rotation. By switching his hand position, it usually results in his fingers having a tighter grip to get more on the ball.

[@JKGYHTM]

@@jrproshop Awesome, always wondered why the pros had that sound. Thank you so much!

[@NicoN561]

That long pattern all day lol.

[@clowny2396]

I bowl on typical house patterns. Do you feel the rule of 31 applies on THS? During the men's league it seems that the best place to have your ball is around board 8 at the end of the pattern of 41 feet at least for right handers. As transition sets in just move 2:1 left and keep going as needed to keep the ball in the pocket. It's almost like targeting way down lane at board 8 and just changing your angle to that target... Excellent video this morning...

[@brandondriley]

It applies and is a good place to start although the high pattern ratio of a THS may sometimes take precedence

[@bowlingxp8345]

Actually the rule of 31 applies more accurately to the "exit point", not the "breakpoint". Meaning it is where the ball should be exiting the pattern. Break point is the furthest right (for a right hander) the ball goes before going left. And they are not the same thing , they just are equal sometimes.

[@Bamm139]

@@bowlingxp8345 Thanks. That's the point I've been wanting to make.

[@MrOsmodeus]

so what kind of ball is going to work on lanes that aren't freshly oiled? say a phantom league where you just show up and bowl?

[@jrproshop]

It depends on many more factors

[@CurtisL8.3066]

Rule of 31 is great -unless you’re a lefty! So try to hook the gutter.... and if that doesn’t work get a stronger ball and hook the gutter. Lol

[@jrproshop]

😂😂 don't remind them

[@Cdcd4393]

40-41 ft seem to work best for me.

[@gcb]

Mines any where from 37 to 40 feet only because I can have some miss room from left to right

[@carolerkila6525]

Medium pattern

[@williekelty5601]

When would you or "THE BOYZ" ;) use a iQ Tour - Sapphire?

[@markweber1117]

Ok let’s say the pattern is37’ making break at 6 board or so. At what distance are you looking to hit that 6 board? At the 37’ mark or so?

[@jrproshop]

Exactly

[@Incrediblewash]

Bruh what's that first song??? Starts at 1:40??

[@jrproshop]

It’s called “Sing Sin” by Mentes Vacias

[@Incrediblewash]

@@jrproshop Bruh thanks you're the goat!!

[@thanatable]

Good content

[@victorbogen1558]

Not fair! 2 hander get more revolucion on the ball then 1 handers

[@jrproshop]

True but longevity is the question

[@Perry2186]

Not to be confused with rule 34

[@jahiemcollins1515]

But what if you are limited to 5?

[@jrproshop]

Well then you'll have to boot something out you don't think you'll use often

[@raymondbaumann2405]

if they will not tell you the length of the pattern......... How would you use this Rule?

[@bowlingxp8345]

Its weird if they don't tell you (the oil guy should know), but then you guess. You throw a ball slowly, mabe a pearl, and watch where if flips.

[@Bamm139]

@@bowlingxp8345 I use the Rule of 31. They don't tell at us at my 2 houses or tournament I bowl. I believe a THS is between 38' - 42' in pattern length. Using my benchmark (IQ Tour), I start at 38' - 31= 7 board exit (not breakpoint), then add 7 boards for feet position. Target 7 board at the arrows, position left edge of left sliding foot (righty) on board 14. Since I don't throw a straight ball, I add 2 boards left with feet, 1 left at target (Ft = 16 T=8). This will get you to the same 7th board exit at the end of the pattern. For 39' move everything left 1 board, 40' everything left 1 more board, and so on each move until 42' if you get that far before finding the line. There is forgiveness 1 or 2 boards right or left at the exit point. Once I learned about the Rule of 31 with a focal point at the pins (usually some spot on the 6 pin) my strike percentage has increased and I've added 2 more 300 games to my USBC stats. Every bowling style is different. I'm a stroker/ tweener and this works for me.

[@freddydecesare2508]

It's not the ball it's the bowler

[@MrKDubya21]

I stopped watching..why are u pausing the video before the ball hits the pin..it just makes the video longer

[@jrproshop]

We wanted to show which board the ball crossed at the breakpoint.

Loooong lol

Next time please warn us your using two handers and urethane .. so bored of seeing this .. your right i dont have to watch .... :)
