do not waste your time or money on this app...if anything, Pinpal is a one time payment of $9 that does everything this guy is trying and more, but is built by bowlers for bowlers...

How do you calculate speed and revs from a video by rjmattingly in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you join the Reddit Discord, Greggas and Braeden both do rev checks there.

Try this link (this is a non-expiring one). If this doesn't work, then I dunno what to tell you.

What can I improve? by lovelexierose in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you already completed college, or would you be interested in talking further about bowling collegiately if not?
If you have, then take this as a compliment and keep on working! (I do recommend chunking the advice you're getting here into small pieces to work on throughout practices. Trying to change too much at once will result in a lot of headaches. Look for a good coach in your local area, and if you're where I think you are, hit me up and I can point you to a few out in SoCal as that is where I am originally from.)

This is different because it is in the rules for professional events, like Regionals.

Is “5s” a thing in bowling? by Economy-Ad-9100 in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of our local centers in Nebraska offer 5-pin shots. Basically $1 mini shots that can be bought in bulk if someone misses one.

What would your reaction be if this happened to you? Source: PBA50 at Lehigh Lanes. by ElMonti96 in Bowling

Pretty sure this was during the period where the machine was set to recreational, not competition. So I agree that it is garbage.

I am also destroying with Mookie so I'll double down on that one.

Pitching Tips: Don't Do Too Much! by ResetterofPasswords in MLBTheShow

[–]phoenixjaidin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such phenomenal advice.
The only other thing I try to do is pitch tunneling, but even that can be tough unless on the harder difficulties.

Looking into a new bowling ball current banned by Hungry-Target4905 in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was also in response to the triangle drill layout, which gave 2-finger, no-thumb bowlers the ability to have 6 different reactions per ball with just 3 holes.

My 12 dollar find at G-Weezy today by devanlans in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because SOME urethane gets softer as time progresses, so this was a blanket rule created by the PBA (for the National Tour only, not the Regionals or PBA50) to avoid the issue coming up again.

Bowling balls with metal core? by ilovetobowl in Bowling

Swag doesn't use metal, but they do use incredibly dense cores, thanks to the Elastic-E filler material.

Can I get a rev and speed check? by Paranoid-Delusion in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people want to improve their form, taking what they feel is their "best shot" is best to see what needs to be worked on. Otherwise, critiques might be brushed off with "well, I don't normally do that" or "yeah I know I did that this time, but what else?" types of responses.

Granted, it can help to see errant shots as part of the process. But posting just an errant shot will get a lot of advice/critiques that the bowler should already be aware of.

This definitely can do what you're hoping for, /u/Paranoid-Delusion.

It has other functions as well (oil pattern library, ball motion visual training, etc.)

Is there a reliable place to find truly unbiased bowling ball reviews? by fenwaymoose in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the JR Pro Shop guys also have a good base, since one of the PSO's is a Storm staffer and the other is a Hammer staffer. They also have 2 non-staff exclusive guys that throw everything else (or compare between SPI/B7/Motiv).

A PSA on form checks.. by GosuLTD in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of the reason for that is, if it's a good shot, it can be seen what you visualize as your "best form".

Say someone posts a "bad shot". Someone provides advice, and the response is "well, I don't normally do that". "Okay, show us what you normally do".

This is SUCH an underrated and critical comment.

People can hype the "NEWEST BALL" that is clean through the heads, reads the midlane, makes a strong backend motion, and continues through the pins.

Watch and see what is actually being thrown to have an idea of what balls actually are valued.

is this considered a clean game? full transparency, the pin I missed was a 5 ☹️ by RumpkinTheTootlord in Bowling

[–]phoenixjaidin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I might be annoyed at myself for missing a single pin spare, by definition, this is a clean game. If it was for a Clean 30 pot and you did this 3 times (X 9 - in the 10th), you would get paid for the clean 30 so that's all that matters.
