    There's a guy I work with that is that way. He eats crap all day long and really struggles to put on weight. He is 22. Then I eat real lean and clean but just look at a slice of pizza and put on weight. Part of it is probably my own fault; I didn't eat any junk until I left the service. My welcome home party was where I had my first piece of cake, soda, ice cream, cookies, etc so I never really built up any tolerance for my metabolism to digest that stuff.
    This past Friday we went for pizza at lunch (buffet). Two slices and I was stuffed and bloated. Brad had nine slices of pizza plus soda and breadsticks. Then two hours later he had a hot pocket.

    Ya, I really need to start hitting the gym up. It's one of those deals where I keep planning on it, but never do. I will one of these days (hopefully soon). Usually I start working out a lot for a month or so, but then I just stop. I need to stay with it.

    Makes me wonder, if I throw the ball at 20-21 MPH now, how fast could I throw if I got some muscle mass lol.

    Some pros ( I think Osku Paalerma for one) have been clocked around 30 mph on spares. Generally they don't throw any faster than you for strikes. Too fast and the ball never has a chance to react to the lane.

    Plus a true FREE ARM SWING is determined more by arm length and ball weight, not muscle.

    John, hope you had a great weekend. I've missed seeing your posts earlier today.

    Ya, Osku can launch that ball..

    Here is a video from the tourney on Saturday of me ALMOST picking up the Greek Church (4,6,7,9,10)



    The spare shot was at about 25 MPH

    That was the closest I've ever come to picking that up. That was a heart breaker too. I had X X 7/ X X X X going into that 8th frame..

    Default Just to BEAT michael??

Before long he will be hitting everything brooklyn and unless he can adjust quickly, you win. I beat a guy last year who averaged 40 pins higher than me 6 times last year that way. He plays one speed, one rev rate, one line so I just took his line away. He tried moving left but I just kept moving and adjusting my rotation to still crush the pocket and burn up his area.
    Jason, thats a cheap shot!!! I fear Bill is trying to teach you underhanded methods of beating me! Their is a more honorable way to beat me, without destroying my oil!! Just bowl a good game when the chips are all on the table.... You don't mess with my oil..... and I won't mess with yours.. !!

    that is just one of the many easier tactics to use I guess.. but.. definitely a plus point if you can catch the opponent's mark.. sure he'll fail badly unless he can adapt to it asap..

    close with the greek church..... does your alley show mph? i tend to crank the ball but cant come close to 18mph and have control... the fastest with control is high 15's low 16's. I notice u use alot of waist/body movement unlike me where i rely on my arm. I did try the half thumb release and it worked suprisingly well! im going to work on it on regular lane conditions and see how i do. The lanes were dryer then the sahara last time i practised . Keep up the good work bowling
