Thread: Bowling with former PBA bowler Robert Smith!

    Default Bowling with former PBA bowler Robert Smith!

    So we started summer league last night and one of the bowlers in our league is Robert Smith! Some of you may know him some may not. I remember watching him bowl a long ago when i watch pba on tv. That guy had a amazing release. his right foot would be over the left gutter when he released it! He doesn't thrown that line any more but man does be have speed and power and a crazy rev rate! I feel sorry for the week we have to bowl them. he bowled his *** off! like he wouldnt do that anyways lol. but definitely a amazing bowler to watch in person. he is a very cool guy. He also now owns the pro shop in the house i bowl at. just thought id share.

    Tell him that Rob Mautner says Hi. We were friends and often shared information and ideas when he lived in Vegas. Is it as hot in Ventura as it is in the rest of SoCal?

    OH WOW! that is sure to be fun and just amazing to see/watch. watching them on tv is one thing but to actually see them bowl is a experience. Hope you do well at the usbc open nationals!!

    Being able to watch any of the PBA bowlers has got to be a great feeling. The amount of time and practice they put into their craft, and then being able to watch them throw after throw is awesome. I had the chance to watch my pro shop guy bowl, and it was pretty awesome. He wasn't a PBA bowler, but he did just get inducted into the Illinois Bowling Hall of Fame.

    That's pretty KEWL. PBA player Ryan Shafer is bowling the same night I am in a summer league. He is in a different league, but is only a few lanes away. Fun to watch for sure.
