CAN YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN

As much as I understand the frustration with the ball return issue, I really hope this isn't your last homemade ball video. This series has been SO much fun and I'd love to see you keep experimenting. I'd also like to see the numbers on these balls just for shits and giggles, really see how illegal they are.

Gives a whole new meaning to "rolling the rock" lol

This guy bowled better with a ROCK than most people can with an entire arsenal of reactive bowling balls

you should make a ball with a candle pin ball in it

As someone who has worked at a bowling alley as a mechanic, if the dimensions of the ball are the exact same as a regular manufactured one. Then i personally dont see what would be causing it to go off track. It is extremely rare for balls to go off track unless there is a build up of dirt and stuff on the tracks themselves. If anything I would either test the ball on another lane to see if it happens again or test a different ball on that same lane. I had this happen 1 time and my main mechanic who had worked there for 30 years said it was his first time ever seeing that happen. We cleaned the gutters weekly and opened the underground track and cleaned off the track monthly.

Bowling ball company’s should make a customize bowling balls. Like you get to choose your core and surface

That ball definitely looks and rolled better than the last 2!!! Super weird about it getting stuck in the ball return though. Just a thought but you could cut out the thumbhole and fingerhole parts of the silicone mold to get an undrilled ball, then drill it however you want. Also, try making the next one out of bowling ball plug material instead of epoxy! I have to imagine you'll get more hook if you do that.

Bro, that rock ball SLAMS! You can not stop now! Make more! Brunswick, Storm, Motiv can someone please get this man a ball mold!

This video “Rocked”😌

I absolutely live these videos they make me hopeful someone outside of the "pro" spectrum is doing fun thing's to make the sport fum and entertaining also would have been perfect if when you had a run going if you asked if you smell what the rock is cookin 😂

I'm loving the homemade bowling ball videos. Edit: It'd be amazing if you somehow got your hands on an actual bowling ball mold that way you wouldn't have to file off the excess around the equator and wouldnt create flat spots

Michael, you are a Genius. Hammer Move over, Nothing Hits like a ROCK! Paul

Hey Michael! Have you thought about throwing that ball on a Haus machine? It might be slightly out of round. Heck, print yourself another 3D ball and make a mold of it. Whoever does the CAD could put your logo in it. The other thought was another 3D ball- and fill the inside with resin? Kill 2 birds with one stone... Keep it round and make it strong and heavy enough....

We are getting some use outta that mold!

The red/clear/blue does look pretty good. If u keep making these bowling balls. U might have to start your own bowling ball company lol

Waiting for the "Back in my day, all we had to bowl with was rock cores!" :P

and so we go down the path of random shit put into homemade bowling balls, and we are here for it!

Your my favorite bowler and I’ve been getting into bowling and you are my favorite out of all bowling content creators and I just wanted to say that I 100% agree with you about the string bowl pin thing going on and want to help to bring more attention to the sport because I loved bowling since I was a kid and I’m now almost 20 years old and have been getting into bowling I’m buying my equipment and learning based off your channel and it saddens me that the bowling community may go down hill do to the string pin situation I want to help and do content on bowling to help spread attention for bowling because I love bowling and what it is capable of doing if they can think of something to bring the attention then I want to be a part of it and I’ll always be here to watch the videos THANK YOU!!❤️

Love the content 220. Always love to sit down and watch a bowling vid, keep up the great work

Yes dude! This is the shit I'm subscribed for! Next one think about making a smaller center with a different resin to encapsulated the core then a harder resin for a coverstock.. eventually maybe a lathe to really get scientific and spherical

Rock n roll bowling!! This was a great video! Keep making history with your curiosity.

Finally got a good one. Love seeing the progress homemade ball is easily my favorite series

As a fellow bowler, I can confirm that rogue bowling balls are sneakier than ninjas. If a ball goes off track, it must be plotting a grand escape. Next time, you should consider setting up a tiny surveillance camera to catch it in the act. I mean, how else are we going to solve the great "bowling ball breakout" mystery?

Talk about some "ROCK N ROLL" 🤘😎🤘

Bro your form is so much better! Way to go!!

That Ball you made is awesome!! My favorite of your videos!

“I’m throwing rocks tonight” - Donnie, “The Big Lebowski”

Man that ball hits rock solid.

this was entertaining thank you!

Just the casual "I'm trying to make a bowling center soon, so I need 20 million dollars" at the end lol

Love this series of vids I do think if you surface the ball on a ball spinner to even it out more you’d get an even smoother roll without the ball thumping down lane

i think the ball is a bit wideboi because the soft mould expand on the bottom when you pour the resin in

Make this a series!!! Add a color layer every time you do another “homemade” video

Your form looks so good, keep at it

You should get the ball resurfaced at pro shop so it is perfectly round. 😊

I’ve always wanted to make my own ball this video was amazing

KEEP DOING THESE!!!

That’s the coolest color combo!!

that was really enjoyable. The sticking underground is odd for sure. The ball looked pretty pretty. Nice job, buddy, this was the best yet.

This is how 220 starts all of his bowling company endeavors, he’s gonna be making balls, opening more alleys and idk… but I swear, you’re gonna be a ball manufacturer with this pace of ball producing

There is this new innovative bowling ball that hits like a rock!

I hope this is not the last homemade bowling ball, i would love to see bowling pin shape as a core inside the bowling ball😂

I always rolled hammer balls and this makes me wanna make my own version of the hammer everclear but with my favorite brand of hammer and call it the EstwingClear

If you make another making your own ball video I think putting a brick in the ball would be funny. Love your content and always enjoy watching your videos!

Awesome what you are doing, but I see what you did there...very clever!

That's amazing haha. Great game for any ball, let alone a home made ball 😂. Also, I spy that Frostmourne in the background 🤫

I hope this wasn’t the last homemade ball because these videos are so enjoyable to watch! Makes me wanna diy my own balls for fun.

have you tried pouring all colors at once and poking down into it with a stick (like those sand jar things) to try to make swirl patterns?

Nah bro we need more homemade ball videos! Surely it was just that lanes return being goofy and not the ball itself

Making those pins rock

I need the behind the scenes footage of you finding the perfect rock for this.

You don't fool me. That's a modern high end rock you used. Anyway, keep on rocking.

You should definitely make a resin core and then make the bowling ball. As a video that would be sick !

Remake the flex seal commercial. “We sawed this bowling ball in half and then put it back together using FLEX SEAL! Let’s see how it bowls!”

That ball really got the 10 out well . I was surprised. Nice job with this one

Dedication to the youtube bowling community lol. All I know is these ball manufacturers better be scared your ball creations might be on to something 🤣

you love making balls so much Mikey...just get Forest and a warehouse and start the 220 avg ball Line....get some staffers and let's ROCK!!! :) something tells me this is your calling.

Reason why its getting stuck is because it it a fraction smaller than a normal ball due to the resin shrinking during the drying phase. Make the mold a little bit bigger or add some more coats of resin. Bowling balls over time also shrink too! My buddy had a problem getting his ball back after not bowling for 10 years, Putting the balls side by side we could tell it was smaller!

lol u def are the mad scientist of bowling

Genius idea

Ingenious ....... Patent it bro!!! ❤❤❤

That ball rocks, literally. I'm surprised that it works pretty good. Althought it possibly not very different from the high end cores used today.

Did you check any other ball to see if it would happen ? Was there an issue they found after ?

Your next video should be you building a full lane in your backyard, Of course it has to have a DIY pinsetter and ball return as well. I mean you did say you wanted to build a center so that's a decent start ; ]

Waiting for the Homemade Arsenal. Got your big Asym rock. Keep it going!

MORE HOMEMADE BALL VIDS

Dude you Rock!!!! Is it from Diablo

random question but i saw you have a motorbike, how do you take your bowling balls or do you not ride your motorbike when you go to the centre

Lol it's actually not bad. Makes me want to get a resin kit and a mold.

I kinda think the ball return problem is due to small imperfections. We hear it when it’s rolling. I bet it would work better if it is sanded a bit. It would roll better snd not go off track. The dimensions look good visually.

The diameter likely being smaller is the reason for the return issues.

Did you put it on a Hass resurfacer to get the ball perfectly round and surfaced?

220, maybe you should look into throwing your homemade balls at Deo Benard's backyard bowling lane. Manual ball return.

This was awesome.

If you gave it polish would it make more of a normal curve and not hook in your feet?

please use a boat anchor for a weight block. it has a basic weight block shape

220 Average Bowling comments in 2022: You need to buy x bowling ball and see if you can score well. 220 Average Bowling comments in 2024: You need to make a ball with x and see if you can score well. 220 Average Bowler comments in 2027: You should buy x bowling ball, roll a high game, break it to get the core, and put the core in a mold and make a new ball with the core and see how strong the core really is

This is the greatest achievement in bowling history 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

U should try making a bowling ball with a core that u make out of like lead or something similar

First 10 pin you leave, someone says, "Ohh, dang, stone 10 pin!" And you say, "Yeah, literally!"

we are in a new era of 220 avg y’all.

I do really like the custom balls

This gives a whole new meaning to "That guy could hook a boulder"

What are you going to use for your next tournament mike? Mike: ROCK

can you make a right handed double curve ball? i wanted to see you do a full challenge vid with the double curve but you didn't throw it that way. Right handed so you can actually use it comfortably. Maybe just plug it and flip it over for right handed if you didn't want to make another?

❤ more ROCK balls and other homemade balls! ❤

Do you sand your homemade bowling balls down to 80 grit or whatever and give them a full resurface on a spinner or resurfacing machine, or do you just make them “round” and that’s it?

how about a boomerang esq core ? shape of a boomerang but heavier/thicker ?

This is actually a really good idea. Imagine a ball company making these. They could get the center part even more clear so you could see the unique rock inside.

U gots to rock out with your cawk out !!!

Please don’t stop making custom balls these are way too cool

Falling off because you hear it thumping.. just put it on the spinner and true it.. have you hit it with the size ring?

Bring that to a real tournament my secret weapon 😂lol

It reads so early. But it's so dope. Are you gonna polish it to see if you can see the rock better?

New League ball FO sure Rock and Roll.

you should resurface it to 500, then 1500 it'll make it a truly nice ball

How much does the rolling Rock, bowling ball weigh? It carries pretty good!
