    Default Favorite bowler?

    I wish the woman would be on tv more. I like watching them. With their lower rev rates the form and accuracy has to be spot on. My favorites are Shannon O'Keefe, Missy Parker, CDB, Stephanie Nation and Shannon Pulhowski

    My favorite male bowlers are Norm Duke, Bill O'Neil, Mike Fagan and Rhino Page. Walter Ray Williams Jr has been a favorite for as long as I can remember. I like watching Sean Rash...it shows me that raw physical talent doesn't mean squat if you can't control between the ears. One day he may finally put it all together for at least a whole season but right now I'm sure he would settle for one whole televised match.

    Walter Ray in a landslide for me. Love his accuracy on spares and his somewhat quirky swing. Also like Norm Duke as well as others but always pull for WRW.

    Mine was Del Ballard back when he was on tv a lot. He had a look, his focus was like a laser coming out his eyes.

    It was a shame when he threw that gutter ball, he was never same after that.

    I'm sure it's of no solace to Del but after seeing that clip of the gutter, I throw a straight ball when all I need is 8 pins to win. Given the attention of that game and the media not letting it go, I can see how he couldn't either. He does seem to be a wonderful coach who has the respect of the pros.

    Thats basically what he said afterwards in a interview. he said he rushed the shot and threw it in the gutter. Next time straight ball down the middle.

    Walter Ray has always been my favorite. Norm is right behind him and I love to watch the 2 handers, especially Osku. Also, I'm a big fan of Ryan Shafer and Jeff Carter (even though he's not on tour anymore)
    My new CD, 'What I'm Made Of' is available now at www.dustinseymour.com, iTunes, Amazon and more!

    I'm a bowler and a musician. I have a strong love for both. www.facebook.com/dustinseymourmusic

    Someone showed me a video of Japanese girls bowling naked. Apparently it's a big hit over there. So, I'm gonna say that all of the women on that tape are now my favorite bowlers.

    Sorry Norm Duke, you can't compete with that.

    I'm with holding comment until I know for sure that they are not female Sumo wrestlers bowling naked. Just saying, not my taste.

    well, this isn't the nude but covers the rest. Bowling Revolution P-league. and here's Final 36 I would checkout earlier videos from the tourney otherwise you have to wait for the start of 37 to air.

    to get captions you need to use translate audio then translate captions in youtube
