A lot of bowlers need to hear this. You made insane progress for a week of practice. It took me about 6 years to bowl my first 300, and another year for my 2nd one. I bowl Dougie's tournaments and at Lodi too. I hope you stick around the bowling community, and if you ever need any advice I'd love to help. Great video!

You just popped up on my for you page, and I gotta say I really like your editing style/story telling. As a KZfaqr myself, I understand how much editing this took. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to watching your bowling journey.😎

Shoutouts to Brad and Kyle. Their videos are awesome for learning. I wish I could go for a week straight trying to get a 300. That's some real determination and I'm glad you enjoyed it despite the injuries. Bowling is mechanically intricate, especially in how your body moves, so it's no surprise that injuries can unexpectedly show up.

As a bowler myself I am very amazed how you picked up bowling this quick. You actually tried to learn the technic behind it and not just bowl with pure luck. Gotta say that I am impressed and have the upmost respect for you. I bowled my first 300 after bowling for 15 years ( since I was 6) so it is really tough. Great game at the end though! Keeping it clean is very difficult

Bowling is hard xD lots to learn especially the form. Strikes, spares, simple lane play, oil patterns, bowling ball tech all come later. Form is the most important since its how you deliver the ball first. Awesome video!

Dude, 26 games in a day is absolutely insane. Clean game is huge though! Good luck

This video was great. I was disappointed after watching it when I found out it was the only video. The comments make it sound like you want to be a bowler but what I saw was someone wanting to make an entertaining video, which it was. I hope you keep making others. Oh and the way the video ended was gold. The odds that you were there to catch that moment LOL Great video :)

The amount of improvement you did in WEEK is incredible and something to be proud of. I've been bowling for a year now and my high score is 253 and i still working on my first 300. I hope you keep this up my guy!

Bro, I bowled for about 10 years in leagues, never got a perfect game, and I carried a scratch average in leagues. One game I strung 9 in a row. Got up in the 10th and let it fly, absolutely hammered the pocket, 3 pin did a perfect wrap around the 10 pin. Probably the best shot I made all game, except for the pin action. I picked up the spare and then struck the final shot for a 279. And that was that. My knees gave out not long after that and I had to give up bowling. Couldn’t plant my feet. For you to work up to a completely clean game in a week, that’s impressive. Well done! The problem isn’t your game and your bowling. The problem is only you setting unrealistic goals on yourself. Be proud. You did good.

insane quality for a first video, keep it up

Congratulations on your clean game! I love your dedication to your craft, I hope you continue to build on this so you get to 300 in the not so distant future. 💖

Glad this came up in my recommendations. Also, really hoping you stick with bowling! It's a wonderful sport that needs more love. Keep up the good work glad to be here for the early sub!

Green goblin vibes on the rest day skit 😂

This video is proof that good story-telling is all you need to make a great video. Sick video man!

I love this, I've been bowling for 7 years and have only gotten a 290 but my love for the community is immeasurable, hope you got yourself a ball and jumped into a leauge, love the sport

I think it be best to go to a pro shop and purchase a ball and have him drill it to your fit. I was having a similar problem with my finger and the problem was the grips weren’t right and so I was trying to bend my finger in a spot that doesn’t bend. Plus most pro shop guys will be able to give you some tips and tricks that will help you a lot!

7:54 is literally the best summary of every bowler's thoughts

This is the beginning of something incredible

I've been bowling for 16 years and competitively for about 6 years. Just some pointers... nearly everyone who bowls experiences pain where you felt it; all of our fingers get swollen and bleed from tearing the skin, many people tape their wrist for more support and to ease pain, and many experience leg pain. You experienced it so much because your body is not used to the sport and you bowled so many games (For practice I usually never go beyond 6). Also, if you really want to go for a 300 I'd suggest getting a ball drilled for your hand. I'm willing to bet the ball you were using had the wrong grip sizes for you, plus it's good to get to understand how one ball rolls. It was also a great idea to watch the videos and realize the form and technique aspects because they are crucial and they are very difficult to understand in just a week. Lastly, always remember when you bowl there is a pattern on the lane, I almost guarantee you were bowling on a house shot (which aren't too bad), however, as more people bowl on a pattern the more unpredictable the pattern becomes and the more difficult it is to repeat shots.

Nice video👏 Keep up the great work!

Way to go man! Can’t wait to see the future of this channel

great video man, would love to see this turn into a series on your bowling skills

you deserve more subs this is real quality, your gonna get big soon ik it🙌🏾

Great first video man, whether its bowling content you decide to put out in the future or something else, I think I'll be interested, keep up the great work!

Bowling a perfect game is really hard. Keep on learning, keep on practicing, and one day you’ll get there! I wish you the best of luck on your bowling journey! I love to see the bowling community grow.

This was absolute cinema! Good work bro and congrats on the clean game.

Can I just say this video is very well made and entertaining to watch and even going as far as to tying my high score of 223. But one thing that stood out is if you ever find a ball someone may have left behind, turn it in to the people at the front desk. You never know if that was that persons only ball and make them spend tons of money for new equipment, they'll most defiantly appreciate it.

the acting was top tier 🤣👏

Great work bro! You have an awesome potential! Love your videos ❤❤

Wow! This is truly motivating !

very hard to be a great bowling and learning everything about it takes a long time. from ball cover stocks, cores, what they all do differently then drill patterns and oil patterns. honestly impressive how much you achieved in one week. i’ve been at it for a little less than a year and i still haven’t bowled a perfect game

Well done in getting a clean game that fast bro that’s a great achievement in just one week!

keep going bro i love the pacing on this video

Great work! Bowling has a lot in common with Pool or Golf in that its difficult and a little luck to conquer an invisible obstacle. Been Bowling for a long time you completed some great milestones with a method thats really hard to master in 1 handed no thumb. Great job! The reason you hurt your finger is the ball wasnt drilled for you, and you have to keep your hand under the ball longer. Think of it like how you get a yo-yo to come back to you. Your feet and swing generate power your wrist and timing generate hook. Keep going awesome job!

As a bowler I really do hope that you continue to practice and succeed in this not so big sport. You will learn more about oil patterns, how to play the transition of them, different types of bowling balls and how they react to the lane. I’ve been bowling for 15+ years and still learn something new every time in order to improve my game. Side note, the community that you’ll encounter and the friendships that you’ll make is something that you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

i been bowling for 11 years and haven’t got one yet. honestly so impressed by this

Bro edited this on his phone???? Masterpiece

i’ve been bowling for about a year and a half, got my first 300 a little over one year, then got 3 more 4 months after. then recently got my sanctioned 800 series

cool video! thanks for making it for us to enjoy!

this is a sick video bro, you earned yourself a new sub

Definitely changes perspective to people who think bowling is so simple, I've bowled for most of my life, I'm 40, I average 220, my high series is 762 a 254 average for the games, and yet I have only 1 perfect game to my record, bowling is an amazing sport

This is a cinematic Masterpiece!! Love the video!

Wow for this being your first video absolutely amazing! Keep up the bowling content it’s very niche and you could be huge! When I first came back I also dealt with the same finger and wrist injury and actually took a week off to heal from it because I couldn’t even close my hand! I would say find a certified coach near you and take a couple of lessons, it definitely helped me and I’ve seen huge improvements in my game.

I see you bowl at Lodi Lanes! I bowl there alot, and I've been there when it comes to the ups and downs of bowling. The sheer determination you showed was insane, you'll get there, it takes time to get better. Some people have the talent to jump into anything and get good at it, but most of the time, hard work pervails.

Don’t give up Mino! Clean game is nothing to sneeze at for sure

Fire video bro 🔥

Trust me bowling is hard ive been bowling for about 15 years since the age of 4, never taking it super seriously with never shooting a 300 then i started taking it seriously about 2ish years ago bowling in tournaments and PBA events hoping one day to secure my spot in the Hall of fame when im older, keep up the great work i hope to see you stick around this great community. ❤❤

I respect the grind 👌 those are my local lanes so I’m sure I’ll see you around!

I can tell your KZfaq journeys bright💛

Great Video my man. Great determination and willpower. I bowled in college and 26 games is NUTS

Perspective...yet you nearly made a perfect video. As a bowler, I enjoyed myself. Thx. Subscriber 568.

8:33 tho 😂

as someone whos worked in the proshops, watching you pick up someone elses ball and not getting it redrilled, then seeing the pain in your finger, yea makes sense. Pitches were probably off and it ruined your hand.

Here under 700 subscribers LFG! Keep it up 👍🏽

when it got to the middle finger swollen part and how u couldn’t bowl at your fullest potential, i’ve been bowling for 3 years and i bowled junior gold a national for my first time biggest dream and achievement of mine yet bowling a national. and then after day for of pratice i got a blister on my thumb. and for me it didn’t let me bowl my fullest potential either. i had to learn to adjust. bowling is hard and it is a skill. physically and mentally and i don’t think people understand how hard bowling can be. my thumb is better now but it is a big aspect of bowling

most likely after after 20+ games the oil was burnt up and cliffed as hell (super tight line have to be perfect to strike) you did very good for 1 week it was super impressive i hope you stick to it man

This video was done nicely good job.

Such a good video man

I'm your 1000th sub keep those videos up keep up ur life #Goodluck

1st video and you do this? I see a million subs by 3yrs. Can't wait to see this channel grow.

Pacing of the video is super fire tho bro

I’m glad someone made a video to show that bowling isn’t easy. Bowling is an expensive sport and bowler go from tour stop to regional and not winning anything. It was a great video and I hope one day mino bowls a 300. Good luck

You bowled really good ! bowling takes a lot of trial and error . The oil on the lanes is one of the most important parts . After two years I was lucky to bowl my first 300 . I would have quit bowling if you got your first 300 in a week 😂

Love this🙌

bowling is an easy game to learn, but a hard one to master, you did well man!

actually such a good video

A new channel, and the first vid was a banger. 👏 Are you going to do other bowling videos in the future?

Im 14 and have been bowling since i was 2. I didnt start bowling completively until i was about 10 or 11. Currently i avg 200 on a house shot and 175-180 on a sport shot. As you can see, it took me very long to even get to this point, so its awesome that with just a week youre already averaging 160. One thing i noticed is youre in between 2 styles. Youre cupping the ball like a 2 hander, but you are throwing with the form and release of a one hander. Only very few people can pull this off and be consistent without injuring themselves. The way you hold it and release puts a lot of stress on your fingers and palm which is more than likely why you were experiencing pain in your middle finger. However, people have been able to pull it off. The pro who bowled like you in the video was Jakob Butturf. Hes very good at the way he bowls, but for beginners it may not be the best style to start with, since youre prone to injury. That being said, for more consistency you might look into bowling traditionally one handed with your thumb in the ball or bowl 2 handed with two fingers like you currently do. Personally i bowl one handed, but that is because im a girl so physically its easier on my body. I wish you luck and hope you continue with bowling because we are a very nice community to be apart of! Also having a ball drilled to fit your hand could help

Here before 800 subs! Loved the video man haha

So, I have been bowling since I was a kid. I was averaging 170 as a 10 year old. As an adult, I average around 225. I have never bowled a perfect game. I have been close many, many times. It probably doesn't help. I bowl on a rotating sport shot. The fact is, you just have to match skill and get a few lucky breaks in between. Seeing your progress in 7 days is amazing. Bowling is a very hard sport. You have to use your eyes, brain, and body to average a high score.

I started bowling at 5 and didn’t throw 300 till I was 15. Most important thing to score though is to get your own ball drilled to your hand. Btw Kung Fu Panda music is so epic.

yo you did sick I’ve bowled 5 years, I’ve got 1 300 and way to many 260 s so good job & great video 😊

very impressive progress. but bowling a 300 while also learning the sport for the first time in a week is fairly bold. it takes an impressive level of focus and skill to pull off such a move. you must be extremely accurate and not let anything the ball is doing tilt you in any way. anger and frustration is where a lot of bowlers crumble and start losing because when your head isn’t in the right space your body ain’t either, throwing things way off as your try to over compensate in other areas. staying relaxed and trying to throw the same shot from the second you pick up the ball to when you throw it, is extremely important.

Epic job

Bro if you get a ball drilled for you, you'd definitely crush that high score!

As someone who doesn’t bowl this video was motivating asf towards the other passions i have

This is an amazing video!

30 seconds in can tell this gonna be great. Where did ur old vids go?

As said by multiple professionals who have bowled multiple 300s. A perfect game is not all skill. Luck is just going to happen at some point. Even if the shot is perfect, the 10 pin won't always fall.

In regards to the finger… I believe if you had bowled two handed it might’ve helped with the finger 🤪 also, you could have your ball re-drilled, and set up as finger tip, which probably would have been better on your finger as well… Regardless, you did amazing, and I am very proud of you! 🤓

Lodi is the house I bowl at and I got to tell you, sometimes it difficult to bowl there at times. I haven't had a perfect game there but, Montvale Lanes is where I have my perfect game. It took me 4 years of leagues and travel league bowling to bowl it. I hope you stay in the sport and improve your game. The community can be toxic but, there's others that like to give back to the game they love. I'm opened to helping you as well because, I feel as a bowler it's great for the sport to keep the sport alive weather it's for fun or for sport.

5:45 gawwwwt Damnn . They’re might night ten pins on each Lane but , Shawty the only 10 I See !

As a bowler you learn that once you bowl consistently your hands will always get bigger including you ring and middle finger your thumb will also swell up and it is normal but for non bowlers its going to hurt and your wrist is also going to hurt alot becuase your hand isnt normalized to that motion

Day 5 underrated af

You should add a “Day #3” in the top right of the thumbnail. Mr beast style

You can do it it took me 5 years until I got my first 300 game I'm 13 years old big accomplishment but I know you can do it too keep practicing please and you will find progress you are already doing so good just bowl your heart out I bowl better when I'm hurt but everybody handles pain different keep practicing and one day you will get it.

Don't get discouraged man, I've been bowling roughly a year and I've got from a 125 average to a 160 average, high scores went from 145 to a 225

Good video man you should ask how often the lanes are oiled before you go. Always good to go on fresh oil

I like this video so much keep going ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I started bowling when I was 5 and didn’t bowl a 300 until I was in my late 20s. Good luck!

wow, youtube just suggested to me your vid. Keep on playing bowling, and post updates. Hoping you'll get that perfect 300 game. PS: change to a better ball

excellent video

Bowling is something everyone thinks is easy, to be consistently good is not. I just bowled a 279 at a kids birthday recently. The kids loved it, my wife was was so embarrassed i brought all my gear and crush everyone 😂

You should make this a series

this was a great first video

I won my second tournament today. 220 average, which is a PR. I bowled 39 frames clean and had a clean % of 93.3 over 6 games. Ha ent bowled a 300 yet but with every week of training i feel one step closer.

I started taking bowling serious in September last year I have about a 185 average and just 2 weeks ago I bowled my first 300 and it seemed like it really came down to how loose my body felt how clear my head was and around the 5th frame I knew I was gonna get it

A lot of people don’t realize how hard bowling actually is and what a toll it takes on you, especially 20 or 30 games a week.

It's funny that you were there for a Dougie Vision event too those get rowdy lol... hopefully you stick with it NJ is a great place for getting your toes wet in the more competitive side of the game

When I coach a newbie, I do it without any pins in the machine, if the lanes will let me do it. Scores don't matter. Proper form matters. Scores will come. I think destroying myself like you did made me a better coach.
