I don't really believe he is among the most accurate bowlers on Tour but makes up for it with other factors. I'm not a fan my wife is. I don't dislike him just not a fan of the style. To Mike Belmo personifies everything that is wrong with the game and I both agree and disagree with him on that. Unfortunately their was an art to this game that has been lost the older ones of us remember when their was a constant trade off between power, angle of entry, and accuracy and to gain in one meant not a loss but a downgrade of the others the winning bowlers were the ones who could adjust their games between those areas to maximize what the lanes were giving up too much of the modern game has become the ball creating angle of entry regardless of power and upset the balance to the point that art has been lost. I'm also sure people that remember rubber felt the same way about soaker plastic and plastic felt about urethane so it's relative.
