As a coach of over 40 years, I want to complement you on your emotional maturity! You seem to handle bad shots and bad breaks really well. You’ve got a very bright future in this sport, keep it up Brady!

Every tournament builds your experience base, especially the US Open. Outstanding bowling, Brady!

Simo is a fricken beast. +417 I think after day 3? 150 pins clear of the field. Impressive so far for first Open Brady.

Awesome bowling so far Brady… One big block today and you’re in the cut… The public is rooting for you …. Good luck

Very respectable showing, Brady! You should be very proud of yourself!

Thanx for the awesome footage!!!

Outstanding effort and alot can be taken from it!!

Great composure through tough breaks and great spare accuracy. Keep it up!!

You do your best . Awesome bowling!Keep it up . Good luck .

You did great! Very tricky center. Good luck in future tournaments!

Solid showing! Keep it up!

Hi I have been a fan for so long.

Great bowling

Wow! Thanks Brady! I watched the entire video. Looked like a spare clinic with some strikes here and there. Making the spares is ultra important. Keep it up. The grind is real. May the pins fall in your favor tomorrow.

Great bowling, Brady. You've got an awesome future in our great sport.

You should be very proud of your accomplishments in this tournament

This is the sport of bowling that makes it such a good sport to play great mental game you just gave me hope for league today may the pins always fall in your favor!👍

Can’t wait to see you in the PBA!

You’re spare game during games 3-5 was really impressive!

Great stuff young man!!

Great Bowling

Nice bowling man! keep it up

Recommendation from a senior scratch golfer and 200+bowler. First of all I love your demeanor and concise commentary as well as every shot covered. Great taste showing the other competitors...gives me more of a since of being there. As for technique...Consistency is King! Master that and you can more effectively adjust for conditions. It appears that you are quicker, less balanced, bad timing on your first shot...right foot high, low and all around. On the second shot, slightly slower , more balanced better timing ...right foot lower, more consistently calm. You are a great spare shooter and I think rolling your first ball like your spare ball will develop better consistency. Allow me to introduce you to the 80/20 rule...role with 80% of your capability...this will leave you with relaxed muscles that will perform more accurately. Approaching 100% effort leaves you without a margin of error in your muscles that would otherwise be available to make micro adjustments in the micro second. At this level you will need to roll a bullseye nearly every shot. Never give up and...let the bad shots motivate you to be more relaxed and focused...80% effort. (that's my approach and it has served me very well) You have what it takes to be great in this sport...GO FOR IT BRADY!!! Lady luck will always balance out in the end! GOOD LUCK and HAVE FUN!!!

Wow, a little carry in game 5 would have gone a long way. Great bowling though, can't wait to see you try again next year.

Finishing at -86 for 24 games at the us open is actually really impressive

Nice

Looked like more forward roll and less axis was working best for you on this pattern. Great Job keep bowling up a STORM. Great Job on your 1 pin spares!

Curious...why did you switch from the gem? I saw your fill shot when you switched but did the absolute power give you a false read??

Just a general question why go with two gloves? Is it just for extra grip or? I use one although I am one handed so it might be different I mainly use it to help with blisters on my palm area. Great videos my guy you are killing it !!

Happy Birthday Brady….

Just curious, what made you want to stand in the middle instead of being more to the right?

Brady great bowling talent, congrats on taking on the US OPEN, your two hander and watching you reminded me of video interview of the G.O.A.T., BELMO, he said first years on tour he realized, speed and rev rate, is not always to solution, it is taking what the pattern is giving you, seems to me Brady was using speed and rev rate to conquer the conditions, Brady is far advanced already at his young age in his bowling abilities than bowlers much older and experienced, " the sky is the limit", seems appropriate to use for Brady. Enjoy your young years Brady, several years away from pro tour, don't burn yourself out before you get there. SIMO rewrote records books of being the youngest to............could it be your destiny to rewrite those same record breaking accomplishments.

I saw you using the absolute power aswell I usually have a tougher time with the ball when I bowl on a longer pattern. Do you think the same was happening here? I throw about 410rpm avg and 16.5mph usually especially if I’m not tired lol.

At 22:00 I would be very tempted to give that a few frames when that tough. I know why we don`t but can`t help but wonder if we should. Keep up the fight.

Great concentration! I have a question. In league, I always encourage those around me, even if they're bowling against me. How is it at the PBA level? Are there any conversations between bowlers?

As a barber I congratulate from escaping my chair. Keep on keeping on

Always wondered, whats does the gloves help with? Grip?

Great stuff, long patterns you need to bowl a tight line, not easy! Not sure Daren Tang is at all happy !!!

Did it play similar to the Badger?

2:27 Been there and done that before

You needed to stick with the gem you threw the best with that ball

Is it just a feel thing wearing a glove on the support hand?

how do you bowl in pba events at 15?

You tried your best, this is a low scoring pattern, so don't get too bummed. You still have great potential to be a beast

Bowling on that pattern looked like trying to have a marble land and stick on the middle of an upside down cereal bowl

love watching you bowl, always been a fan, but man you stand near the foul awhile after bad shots.

Hang our heads up high? Hmmm, suspicious. Hold our heads up high might be better. Congrats on doing what you're doing when your doing it.

Brad Miller is the only guy playing the lanes properly.

toughest shot you've ever bowled on?

this pattern stresses me out just from watching lol

That whole video pissed me off lol

So what was the move to eliminate the 10 pins, there's always a few arm chair coaches in the comments?

The clip of Nathan Smith @26:42 and Schenck @27:30 and Brad Miller @28:14... thats the line you should have taken on the right side. You got too cute with your angles.

The energy in this comment section is appalling. Do your thing! These lanes were tough on everyone. Learn and grow.

You kept pulling it inside... and the ball changes from REALITY to the GEM... was the right move... but your line you chose was incorrect...based on your revolutions and speed... You should have been up the track and in with the GEM... and in some shots thats what you did... but you just kept missing inside on the left lane games 1 and 2. Dont let this stuff get to complicated... Sometimes the simplest answer is the correct one. Great effort and job staying tough... I would just use this as a learning experience. Just curious what GRIT did your reality and gem have on them? I coach youth bowling... and although I know you have tons of experience... stuff like this only makes you better. We are all just people with experiences... its those experiences that mold us into the people we will become. #StayMentallyToughAndKeepRolling :)

You are good kid but you gotta work on speed control. You have one speed… fast af lol. On a pattern like that you gotta let the ball get into a roll… slow it down and let those big balls do the work.

fwiw - You seemed to be very inconsistent with your speed on your first shots in the first few games. Made accurate adjustments difficult.

Some of the lead paint effected brigade comments in this section are a very, very good indication of why exactly bowling has fallen away so badly worldwide over the past 25-30 years. Fact.

Jeez these patterns look stupid. That tournament has to be mentally exhausting. Talk about a confidence killer.

Brady, Son I hated watching You struggle as You did yesterday and today. What I hope is that You see this message and use the videos of your qualifying as a learning tool. I can't tell You just how many times I've watched either You or Bella, but You both have something in common and that is, when you're not stable at the foul line and stick your finish and stepping out to your right, your games go down the hole.. It's simple to explain to You and what I saw happening. Watch how many times You released the ball directly into the lane and did not stick your finish and see what the results were. I don't come in here to see what You score rather to watch what You do naturally. As a one time Professional Bowler and Professional instructor, I know what I see.. Good Luck Son, keep up the great work.... Keenan

Happy birthday Brady Branden Mcdonough. I'll write your birth day as 1-31-2008? any time you can BEAT Darren Tang your doing great & there were a couple games you annihilated Darren not just beat him. for me I have learned the MOST from Darren Tang & you Brady PROVED to me I NEED to do the double hand thing with NO-thumb. I didn't understand why 2 hand but still tried it like 10 games, I was doing it wrong. I thought you want to keep 2 hands on the ball even at release but now I have watching you Brady I'm beginning to understand the 2 hand thing. here's my thoughts of it: I KNOW for a FACT the NO-thumb release puts massive spin hook on the ball (the problem is using just one hand to do it you can't bring the ball back far enough to get NEEDED MPH forwards cuz I did it for a lot of games & for months. its massive spin with massive hook) I think the 2 hands are to cock the ball back father to get those NEEDED MPH forwards to control the MASSIVE HOOK & it gives WAY more to work with plus power because of the MPH. thats what I see also when Packy Hanrahan does it. BEST time to try it again is in GLOW ball where its kaos any how. If it turns out well for me this Friday 2-2-24 then I'll do it on league. anyone can see all my open bowling results on Rumble dot com type in The Brooklyn Crusher or FunBallBowler it will show some of my over 200 open bowling videos. I need more ways to bowl in my weaponry any how. Darren Tang PROVED to me there are many, MANY ways to a strike, Packy NOT so much he is a comfort zone bowler & he treats new ways to the pocket as a thereat. Darren Tang treats everything as a CHALLENGE that is the main differences from Packy Hanrahan & Darren Tang. that is also the difference between a GREAT/BEST bowler & meteoker bowler. but Packy is working on it. I like Packy just NOT the comfort zone stuff. the EVERYTHING as a challenge makes WAY more since to me! & NOT just in bowling either! when I say EVERYTHING I mean EVERYTHING! HAPPY 16th Birthday Brady enjoy it!

Should of stood right once u moved left u lost it good try tho keep it up gluk

going from a roto grip ball to a storm ball is where u messed up , storm balls are so soft and never carry nothing

OK, wtf! Not only 2 hand bowling, But, also wearing gloves. What has this sport turned into?

way too much unpredictable side to side movement when you are moving forward. Overthrowing everything, nobody is going to impressed by your speed at a US Open. slow it down and hit your spot. Especially if you want to attempt lofting at your age and build, cant overthrow the loft, sometimes in order to get distance the only way to do it is to overthrow, you want to actually underthrow and then loft.

Young man don't you have school during the week? U not gonna be a pro bowler so stay in school, trust me son.

You're a good bowler kid but you got a lot to learn. For one thing you need to learn bowling etiquette. You up there acting like you're some kind of great bowler when you have no achievement to this point in the PBA. Quit being so dramatic on every shot your throw. Act like you been there before

2 handers suck.

Trying to figure out why you moved way left instead of moving way right to the right gutter.
