No kidding, we had a guy bowl a 300 2 weeks ago. He bowled next to me last week, and his form isn't very good. Despite that, the ball comes off his hand very well. It's like that guy Jeff Roche who made the TV finals in a WSOB event. You wouldn't teach that delivery to anyone, but it works for him.
Trying not to suck, one day at a time.
I dont think form matters as much... Function over form, isnt that the saying? Hahaha. If a form has consistency, I would imagine thats far more important.
After a series like that, its hard to argue he had consistency issues that night.
The only problem is: what do you do for an encore? Hahaha

i love that people are commenting on the video saying that 300's are easy because he was throwing it on a house shot.
in the bag: DV8 brutal nightmare, DV8 hellraiser revenge, DV8 misfit, Columbia 300 encounter
60% of the time, it works every time
True, BUT a sailboat's function has more to do with engineering, and the human element doesn't quite come into play as much. A sailboat can still work despite a bad sailor. An exceptionally bad sailor can still sink the boat, but an exceptionally bad bowler wouldn't have had those scores in a bowling series. hahahaha.
Kurt Warner threw a really ugly football. His form was awful, he gripped the ball all wrong, but he still won a Super Bowl, made it to two more Super Bowls, and had an MVP (did he have two MVPs? I know Faulk had one... I think they each had one MVP). It wasn't picture perfect, but it worked very well for him. Hall of Fame...??? I wouldn't be surprised if he sneaks in, and I don't think he's undeserving, either.
