I would say Stu Williams, based on his short abbreviate follow through. It does appear he cuts off his shots, but he gets a boatload at the bottom of the swing.

My bowling balls include:
Brunswick Brute Strength, Brunswick Mastermind Genius, DV8 Endless Nightmare, DV8 Diva, DV8 Diva Pearl, DV8 Marauder Mutiny, & Brunswick White Viz-A-Ball spare ball
Odd choice, maybe, but I think Suzuna Miyagi (JPBA) has a really effortless swing.

I have to admit, I thought for sure it was going to be a couple helicopter bowlers. I thought it was a joke...
After watching a 110lb woman throw an effortless ball with some funk (revs/power) on it, I concur with your assessment. She's nasty!

What about Mike Fagan?
Absolutely FaganOriginally Posted by manke
Yeah, him and Bohn...
I think Norm Duke is actually smoother, but for some reason doesn't appear to be. I think it's the follow-through.
Yep Fagan is something.

Well, I like to think of someone who is not only effortless but who also has a game that will stand the test of time. For that reason, I will go with Nelson Burton Jr.
*edit* I see now that although the topic is "effortless bowling", power is mentioned in the original post. Maybe NBJ doesn't qualify. I guess he has always had enough power to knock down ten pins. He bowled an 878 league series last season.

Got to go with everyone who said Fagan. Guy puts the game into a slow motion mode, so smooth and effortless. Probably drinks Dos Equis when drinking beer.
