Does anybody like us two handed bowlers?

We are treated badly everywhere. Do they
think we're cheating or are they jealous?

Jealous? 😂😂😂😂

Most bowlers, and non bowlers I know are two handed. I myself am, in fact, two handed. I treat my two handed friends the same as my, well, I don't have any one handed friends but if I did, that would be just fine.

I don't like trolls with any amount of hands.

The only people that get angry are those that don't have the right equipment or the correct release/ adjustment when they encounter 2 handers. I love them they destroy the pattern and I get to watch the other team cry about it

This nails it. Right on point.

I don't take issue with 2 handers. It's the style they bowl and it is up to us to adjust to it when the patterns get broken down and the oil is moved about.

My arsenal consists of 2 balls that help counteract this. The Ultimate Nirvana and the Fanatic BTU.

The Ultimate is great for medium to heavy oil, and it isn't the skid/flippy type that doesn't react well.

The BTU is even better because it absorbs the oil (unlike urethane), and can actually hurt the line the 2 hander is using if they are on similar lines. It is also great for playing up the middle directly into the oil because of its very slow response down lane.

Bowling isn't about staying on one line the entire time you're out there. Making adjustments throughout the game is always a necessity. Bowling on 4 & 5 man teams breaks they patterns down in no time, and we have to be able to move left or right, or making a ball change at a moments notice ahead of the transition. This is what separates the better bowlers from the good bowlers.

one hand or two hands, it doesn't matter
its all about the person throwing the ball

a good person will be well liked
a douche bag won't

I think most here have figured out which category the OP falls into

I have no problem with two handed bowlers myself.

I enjoy beating the two handers just as much as I
enjoy beating any of the one handed bowlers out
there on the lanes.

First night of league we bowled against a team whose anchor bowled the first two games one-handed, then switched to two-handed because he got tired. No one complained. Two-handed get the revs but many have control issues.
