We Need EVERY Strike To Make The Cut

[@BradandKyleBowl]

Had some mic issues this week but should be good to go for the Doubles! Thanks for the support everyone (:

[@iamasooner86]

Thank you for acknowledging. I can’t hardly hear a thing.

[@chilsonsire5756]

If it helps your camera/sound/editor guy... I listen to your channel through Bluetooth hearing aids... and the clickety-clackety sounds (i.e. the pinsetting machines), are certainly overwhelming on this particular video. Otherwise... love the channel and what you guys do for the sport of bowling.

[@mikekurtzman654]

Hey guys, great channel been here watching since the beginning. Speaking of mic issues.. It would be really cool if you guys were mic'd up out on the lanes during a tournament. Letting us fans hear what your thinking in the moment, like bad off the hand, missed the mark, hit the carry down, all the things we don't have a clue about. Especially how and when to make adjustments and ball changes. Please give it some thought for all us amateurs out there, thanks Mike

[@XxDEMPOxX]

Appreciate the humility that Brad promotes at the end of this vlog. Promoting fellow youtube content creators as well as the Roto Grip Duo for Steph and Shannon. Absolute class right there. A real promoter for the sport as well as fellow content creators. What an example by which to lead. Much love from ireland. Keep on doing what you're doing. Absolute legends ❤

[@XxDEMPOxX]

Brad, your comments reach further than you even know. Promoting fellow PBA bowler channels helps gain an audience for the sport as a whole. Pure class helping to promote the sport as you do. Keep going and hopefully you two will get a few more titles soon to help promote yourselves as well as the sport.

[@brienvoll8083]

Highly respect shouting out all the other bloggers. Absolutely agree more exposure of our best players will help the sport. We can only partially catch a glimpse of our pros personalities in pro-ams but you get to be yourselves in these videos and it’s much appreciated.

[@chipwhite7170]

Brad and Kyle, you guys set the bar for bowling vlogs! Thank you for all you do!

[@mikeysnyder4363]

Love you guys, thank you for being there in my life without even knowing, keep being the amazing guys you are and hopefully i’ll see you this weekend❤️

[@iandickey6220]

It was cool to see Kyle crossing with Ramsey Basurto. I know Ramsey. He’s a nice, very genuine guy, an amazing tournament director, and one heck of a bowler. This is his first year out on the tour and this was the first time he’s ever made the cut in a national event. He truly made everyone down in SoCal very proud.

[@freeekychiiild4765]

You guy's inspire me so much and perhaps alot of people across the country!!! Thank you for all the video's!!!

[@kristenanderson5273]

Love what you guys do for the sport of bowling. Looking forward to bowling in the Roth Holman doubles pro am on Monday. Life has been a crap shoot for me the past few weeks, losing my job and about to lose my cat due to a tumor. Bowling is about the only thing in my life right now that has meaning. Thank you so much for making great content and inspiring those of us who want to keep getting better at the game. God bless you guys.

[@ianhoneycutt3858]

Life will turn around for you. Keep you head up

[@davigorb]

Just keep putting 1 foot in front of the other, can get thru it

[@vegasvln]

Really enjoy and very glad I found your content! Love seeing the actual process of what you guys go through. I have been back bowling for three years after 30 plus years. Keep up the great work and will be signing up to a membership soon!

[@d3f1anc3]

@BradandKyle Just echoing what's already been said. Thanks for everything you do for the sport we love. And to Brad specifcally: The passion you have for this industry and sport really shined thru in the latter portion of this vlog. It's as clear as day. You have a deep respect and admiration for the game and your peers. I bowled league earlier and have been bowling off and on for decades and what you said really resonated with me. You not only make me want to be a better bowler, but a better person. Thanks man.

[@jaybird22486]

Brad and Kyle enjoy the content. It was nice to meet Brad before the start as I explained it was my first national event I competed in

[@kdrkid81]

I love when Prather comes on lol he is awesome.

[@kyleb5169]

He's really good at plugging merch/streams on the channel haha. He's funny

[@adamquazza1936]

Pretty crazy how the game has changed. Of the final 18 this week, exactly half were two handers. I went to the last block yesterday. I enjoyed watching the Tacketts, O'Neill, McCune, Barrett, Roberts, etc. much more than the two handers. Stick with it Brad and Kyle!

[@ClubRemy]

Love that real talk segment at the end. The bowling is great, but I keep coming back for the humanity.

[@tbullard52561]

You guys are awesome - get motivated every time I watch one of your videos. Nothing but respect for you both and your team!

[@foxdogsourdough]

You both are the best. Thanks for doing all that you do!

[@bowlingdj300]

Love the channel, cant even imagine how crazy difficult it has to be moving pair to pair with all the change and not shooting 120, great job on the effort, cheers!

[@robertantio2530]

Shout out to Mike 🙏 Way to put yourself out there man! Brad and Kyle are two of the classiest bowlers to ever walk the planks🎳🤘

[@michealpatrick1739]

Good to see you guys supporting other bowlers. It shows you guys are close act!! Love the videos too.

[@kyleb5169]

Packy making faces was funny. Great video as always and you guys will pick it up! Prather always with the plugs! Great hype man! lol

[@chefragan]

Thanks for being so humble brad and Kyle, I know the year didn't turn out the way it did but your living a dream opportunity each day 🎉🎉

[@scottythompson940]

Cool tech bowling bowling tournament brad and Kyle

[@NonMonFrere]

Brad, great discussion on perspective. We could all use more of it, and hopefully act on it.

[@radicaledward8486]

Belmo's new vlog is so freakin good. I blame you guys for blessing us with this.

[@skippyrod2532]

His vlog kinda sucks.

[@MicroNQTrader]

I really enjoy watching this videos makes me want to get back into it.

[@3ndstufe]

Funny how Prathers is more on this channel than the House channel

[@jessibri665]

Um

[@mikekurtzman654]

Love the Clark Kent comments to buy merch, and to hit the subscribe button tho he's great

[@wd6358]

This is my first year following professional bowling. I didn't realize there were so few tourneys

[@sonofnothing]

There's a bunch of regional tournaments, as well as pba50, pwba. The world series and this players championship are marathons, too. Still, I do wish the PBA season was longer.

[@sonofnothing]

Barnes Jr has an awesome channel, too. It's pretty awesome to see him and his dad bowl against each other.

[@LyftedDieSeL_Wv]

Lol Prather always on the channel. Nice to see such a good personality and supporter of the channel

[@MaintenanceMan00]

Good week you guys can’t wait to watch you in doubles

[@Inquire703]

@13:30 what were the scores on the “worst pairs”?

[@danjs34p]

Take care guys, travel safe, good luck at the doubles event. 😊😊😊

[@pasurferjr]

Props to Prather for reminding me to hit the like button every once in a while, and to everyone else who did it. BTW mans KP has got the smoothest release on tour, its like butter man.

[@zachbrzeczkowski8005]

I love watching Brad bowl. I vision him throwing a ball when I am in my pre shot routine. It's hard to see Brad struggle because he is a insane bowler. Brad is going to have a break out year next year. He will have 2 title wins...one of those will be a major. Multiple match play/cuts made and a handful television shows/step ladders (depending on event). You heard it here first... PIN this comment, screen shot...

[@joeanderson9267]

Keep grinding

[@herbwithrow9656]

When you bowl so many games when do they re oil lanes?

[@jimh5054]

what about this guy behind brad drilling' in his ear socket? (10:39)

[@bobmendenhall6357]

Great video Gents. If more professional athletes were as accessible as the PBA players,professional sports would be much more relatable. We get the whole picture from Guys, the sport, the business, and also the philanthropic priorities of the PBA and the Players. It's pretty refreshing, keep up the great work. Thanks!

[@jamesjin8839]

Your camera sensor is dirty bro. (22:05)

[@huginanenvelope]

Always classy.

[@CRAZY_VIDS07]

COME ON BRAD U DESERVE THIS TROPHY U WILL WIN THIS ONE??? 100% GUARANTEED 🎉🎉🎉

[@terrywerner8600]

When will be in Reno for Nationals?

[@Fmr.PBAJoeJenkinsII]

Packy is a trip 😂

[@thebigeasy8609]

What will Brad do if they ever discontinue the Phaze II ??? Good bowling Brad. Kyle on the other hand............

[@stuartniedermayer8187]

You should try the zen u

[@MichaelConroy24]

So is this the last major or last tourney of the year? That seems like a short year of bowling! Well Love y'all wish you the best as always!

[@gregbentkowski159]

Do you drill your bowling balls differently based on the oil conditions?

[@FLGCaboose]

Packy stealing that tip at the start with his big brain lol

[@IamKwote]

I LOVE THIS LOL PACKY WAS HOL UP WHATS GOING ON OVER HERE? LOL

[@andygs84]

Hi 👋 , Have you guys seem any Singaporean bowlers on the PBA ?

[@mclpoison7882]

Tell your sponsors that their letting you lend your support made my decision to buy one from each manufacturer. I’m relatively new to the sport so they’ll probably get much more from me and my group. Thank you.

[@timfreeman5608]

I will say. Kris does remind me to hit the like button every time he says it!

[@Fmr.PBAJoeJenkinsII]

No matter what happens this week, at least regionals are year around, especially the southern region.

[@laneface]

Shoutout to Flangan

[@tropepe]

how can I get one of those bracelets

[@mikeysnyder4363]

They are the coordinators between hospitals and families when a loved one is needing a life saving organ, in my case, it was 3 kidney transplants so i always do what i can to spread awareness cause without them i wouldn’t be here

@@mikeysnyder4363 Wow! What a great organization. Glad you are still here! Great Message!

[@joshtherrien4076]

Brad u seem kinda down… Might be a wrong observation but if so just remember ur a PROFESSIONAL BOWLER not too many get to say that and there’s so many that wish and strive to be where ur at! U said it best ur around the best in the world!! Ur living ur dream brother that’s frickin awesome! All love and support brother god bless!!!

[@breaknationsports1885]

Practice, practice, practice this offseason! You guys are a huge part of the reason I started taking Bowling more seriously. My overall average went down from 228 to 215 this year. I got comfortable and complacent and just didnt evolve or change things to get better. You're both excellent bowlers. Tweak what you need to and evolve. That is my goal this offseason. Lets both kick some ass next year!

[@GaryLee-c5o]

Please fix your audio! Cannot hear a word. Too much background noise. I watched on mute. Most of your in tournament videos are like this one. Love the channel, that’s why I want you to fix this

[@dennisfredell7586]

Did you read the pinned comment or just went straight to the comments to type?

[@deonkirk7357]

Seems like high rev urethane bowlers are making the patterns more challenging for everyone else.. I'm guess thts where the hate lies lol

[@youngvic22]

Hey if you can't beat urethane join urethane lol throw it with them 🤷🏾‍♂️🤣

[@sonofnothing]

One thing I notice, Kyle trying 10 different balls, but every shot has 100% hand. Isn't there an argument for taking some hand out of the ball, as well?

[@rayki7glu710]

A good directional mike would be of benefit.

[@dennisfredell7586]

Read the pinned comment LOL

[@shawnpugh6052]

To each their own but I personally can’t stand the two hand thing and unfortunately I see more and more of them. But it’s a legal throw so whatever floats your boat Let’s go one handlers 🖐🏽

[@eveflores3943]

I really enjoyed the tunes on the video. Love watching you guys, keep grinding.😊🎳

[@noahwhipkey6262]

yeah... that's pretty funny that youre all pulling out the urethane today..... on 44 feet.... i hung up all my reactive balls in the past week and am only carrying around my urethane and plastic ball this summer. like.... damn matrix

[@jeremiahhoaeae7526]

I guess I need a new ball ...

[@wildcatvarsitybowling8172]

Brad it amazes me how well you score. I don't know to many that can bowl the games you do when your finish position changes so much from shot to shot. Just my opinion Sorry ! ! !

[@dennisfredell7586]

You see roughly 30% of his shots from the entire day and 99.9% of the time these changes are due to something happening on the lanes pair to pair or based on what the last few shots have done. Thanks for the analysis tho 😂

[@adamquazza1936]

Oh stop criticizing. I hope you're not one of those league bowlers who averages 220 and thinks you are good.

[@wildcatvarsitybowling8172]

Background noise is overwhelming. If you are using camera mic you have to use wireless. Can't understand what you are saying for all the pin crashes.

[@razorbear4222]

Prather 😂

[@espreston44]

Follow EJ Tacketts lead he keeps using oldie but goodie venom shock so why not go with storms oldies Hyroad original and iq tour ???

[@troyjacobs68]

So EJ doesn't throw urethane that often how is he bowling better than the ones that are using thane??

[@dennisfredell7586]

He literally threw a grey tank to help make the TV show at this tournament

[@troyjacobs68]

​@Dennis Fredell The Carbide Tank isn't Urethane. Motiv currently has no Urethane balls.

What’s EJ’s excuse?

[@dougw585]

Bowling is dying and may never come back! Just watch any tournament that was on ABC back in the 80's and 90's so packed every night of the week, they had to turn people because of the lack of space

[@park-n-sonsarchery9570]

Man I love all your content , but the sound is horrible, especially with the ball rep . Sorry , just being honest

[@geowilson1587]

[@neilolson7851]

So there is no more PBA events for a whole year why?? They need to get back to the way they used to do it like the stadium series it seemed like there was a tournament every week summer league winter league bring it all back

[@kyleb5169]

There are post season events. There's the Super Slam, PBA League, etc... also there isn't enough money to have all those tournaments. Go talk to your local businesses and convince them to sponsor the PBA so they can have money for more events. There is no Pepsi or Denny's like they had in the past.

[@SuperJ213]

You guys have got to stop with the silly Home Alone thumb nails (hands on the cheeks looking shocked). So many KZbinrs do it and it really doesn't look professional for the kind of content you guys are bringing.

[@kyleb5169]

I have to disagree with you. Clearly what they are doing is working because they are one of the most popular bowling channels on youtube.

[@SuperJ213]

@@kyleb5169 They have been doing well for a while. I've been following them because they have a niche that I appreciate, and they do a good job. They've only recently started doing this goofy thumbnail business. It's a lame trend, and does not fit this channel.
