Totally bring McCune out for this challenge. Would love to see that

This was worth the watch just to see Mitch chop the 4 4 times in a row 😂😂

The amount of knowledge Barnes has for bowling is almost unhealthy 😂😂😂

“My contact list doesn’t run deep with legends”, literally got Walter Ray’s voicemail and talked to Chris Barnes 😂😂😂 already quite deep Pack

My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE video. I love when Mitch shoots crazy hard spairs across the entire house. Please do more.

you GOTTA get Kevin McCune out for this!

Everytime I ask my local lane to shut down so I can bowl splits on each lane they hang up on me. So cool you are able to do these things. Love your videos. Laying here recovering after back surgery loving your videos.

Totally bring McCune out for this challenge. Would love to see that and the 7-10 split to

I absolutely love these spare/split vids you’ve done with Mitch and Frankie. Please keep these coming!

Havent bowled in years, but made this twice in youth bowling by throwing slow and shooting just at the 10 and sliding 6 over. Always great to see you 2 together

Loving these split challenges. Would be nice to see both you go head to head though

Yes, I had a blast watching 👍🏽

great vid, love the Barnes involvement... great awesome, see u soon .

Love this format. The 7 10 video was the video that got me into bowling youtube. Sparkle t zone for the win.

I've picked this split up 4-5 times. Every time I throw it medium speed, with hi revs, and slide the 6 between the 4 and 7. They both fall in different directions. It may sound crazy but it works for me haha. Love y'all's content!!!!

Mitch is amazing. Love these videos, they're some of my favorite on your channel!

Been waiting forever for a Big 4 challenge, good luck. Love you packy❤

You gave us attempts! We appreciate it. It keeps me on the edge of my seat watching to see if it converts. The near conversions gets me heated with hope. Not disappointed though cuz they all look great.

4:51 “I could also get zero.” My guy, you do this for a living. That part is literally your job. 😂

FINALLY!!!! BIG 4 CHALLENGE 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳

I’ve been waiting for this for soooooooo long. Hope everything is well😁

Hopefully Mitch will keep being in videos. The ones both of you are in are always good!

Even though he didn’t make it, you definitely proved the point that the big four is the hardest spare to pick up.👏🏾👏🏾

I've only made the big 4 once in my life. Good video. Enjoyed it!

I am not disappointed. I did witness the 7-10 conversion!

That second last attempt made me pucker up 😂 I felt the pain

Mitch is back!!!!!!! Woooo

Never made the Big four or 7 10. I did convert a sort of big 4 once it was the 4-6-7-9. have converted the 4-6. These videos are fun to watch. Congratulations on the Doubles victory!

I was there for Walter Ray's! Greater Atlanta Classic at Brunswick Zone Norcross.

North rock has some serious bounce potential. Every time you throw a ball at something in this house you have a shot at making everything!

Heres one for Mitch the human bowling ball cannon. 4-7-10 the hard way. go for the 10. I think he gets it in the first 8 shots. Love all your vids and all the guys on the channel. All of you had a bit to do with me going back to bowling after 20ish years. Also a spinal cord injury that was pretty severe, Enough that I had to re-learn everything starting with sitting up and increasing the DD from there. When I tried bowling it was immediately clear that any prior skill, muscle memory or familiarity I may have had is gone. I may know how to bowl, or teach someone else to bowl,and I've bowled a ton, I remember doing it. But the me below the neck, the nerves and all that, everything on the other side of my injury had never ever bowled a shot. I mean never. I was 100% newb down there. The first couple months were really difficult, I had to dial it back to standing at the line and swing, release. Day one type drills, but thats where my ability was at the time. I felt like a child, except I've seen kids bowl, and I'm not nearly that good, if I ever was! The best part in all of it is just how much I'm enjoying everything. FF to today, I'm 7 months in and I'm just having a blast! I go for 2hrs twice a week, work on what need it for an hour then just bowl for another. It was a rough start but I can't even believe the progress I made. I just joined a sport shot summer league a couple weeks ago and picked up a black widow 2.0 solid yesterday. (IT BEGINS!) I think I enjoy bowling now far more than I ever did. I just wondered if I could do it, and its all just for fun, but I get more back than i ever did. Theres more meaning and purpose in my fun, its just more satisfying I guess. so thanks to everyone on the channel , on screen or behind the scenes. If I had not enjoyed your vids it would never have occurred to me to try bowling again. But I did and I'm having the time of my life! Thanks!

We love Mitch! (and you too, Pachy)

Love this dynamic duo. Thanks for your content, your passion for the game, and bringing fun to the bowling community!

No doubt when you see Walter Ray and ask him..."How do you get the BIG 4?" He'll happily say "Beats the S@#!! out of me!!" LOL Chris Barnes Barnes had a good tip....maybe those pins weren't heavy enough to bounce over there?

This challenge, especially the success rate, reminds me of when several of kids in the Nutmeg Bowl Junior league tried to deliberately leave the 7-10 or some other large split. They kept throwing hard and straight at the head pin and getting strikes.

If anything Mitch. Converting the 7-10 at 3:07-3:08 was pretty dope!

that was awesome - you need a Mitch Hupe for the people shirt

I'm hoping for 4 love watching I try to improve my game from watching what everyone tries so I can get tips tricks and improvement so keep it up.

THESE ARE MY FAVORITE! More more more lol :D

You gave me what I wanted. More Hupe split videos! Run it back and try again.

There are many accomplished bowlers who will never convert the 7-10 or the Big 4. I think I've covered the Greek Church a couple times, but never the other two in 40 years of (amateur) bowling. I do really like the content on this channel, keep it up guys!

I was so let down I have to tell ya. Now my weekend is ruined!!! I hope you're happy. 🤣🤣🤣 Awesome vid guys

The 4 consecutive chops was worth watching the whole video for. I have converted the 7-10, 7 times, and the big 4 only once. It is the hardest split to pick up.

Yes, we want Not Eugene to do this, the Greek Church, and the 7/10 challenge!

New merch alert! “TEAM MESSENGER”😮😊❤

Nice try on the big 4! I remember seeing Lance pick this up on Darren's channel, didn't realize how low the odds were 💀

Such an enjoyable video. I like hearing the different strategies for shooting this. I have been fortunate enough to make this 3 times now. Two of those were last season on my Tuesday night league. I am a right handed bowler and I threw hard and straight at the 4-7 and try and get something to bounce out of the back to knock the 10 into the 6. Fun to watch!

I am NOT a good bowler...175 average but picked this spare up in the 10th frame of an 'important' league game this year. Just threw it hard (for me about 17 mph) at the 10 and cut the 6 into the other pins. A blind squirrel sometimes finds a nut!

I just picked up my first Big 4 at the Bowlers Journal this weekend. Slid the 6 in between the 4-7 as a righty.

I’ve been looking for this one since I heard you mention it on Beef n’ Barnzy

Would love to see Kevin in the video, also I wasn't disappointed, got to see three straight chops and a 7 10 pickup, those take alot of skill also

We call the 4-6-7-10 Richard Nixon. ✌🏻✌🏻😂

The talk about his smooth strike release had me cracking up. I’ve commented about his release before lol

Mitch, man after that, all I can say is,,, cool hat dude!

I've picked this up 1 time. Right hander with thumb. Threw it 22mph at the 4 pin. Hit it thin, 4 pin bounces off the wall, its the 7 then splits the 6 10 and sweeps them. I'll never forget it!

This video needs to get CONTINUED CONTINUE THIS VIDEO HNTIL HE MAKES ONE

Hey guys that is a very very difficult split to cover. When I was bowling regularly years ago I made the 6710 but I never got the Big 4. I have also converted 2 7-10 splits. That was at the old fireside Lanes in Wichita which is way before your time. Now that house was known as having a very lively deck and more 7-10 split square made at that house then any other house in Wichita. Now I have never come close to either one of those conversions at Northrock.

I say do a part two and do another 46 until Mitch makes one, love watching the attempts and hey if Kevin McCube wants to shoot at it bring him out. EJ and Osku have fast spare shots as well.

I find like Mitchs 2nd last attempt kicking the 6 or 4 into the other pin you get some funky bounces with speed, i made it that way by just shear brute force hitting the 6 into the 10 and the 6 just exploded back

My buddy jaxson. Hit the big 4 twice in a row a few leagues nights ago.. purely luck. But I saw it first hand.

the chopping was crazyyyy hahahaha

I've only picked it up one time but was in practice.

You know 1 thing I'm happy about in life!!!?? Is being at the game Walter Ray Williams hit the big 4!!!! Seeing history in person is awesome!!!!!

Would be cool to have a contest between 2 House members to see who makes the most tough splits, like the big 4, 7-10, and Greek church.

I got my first big 4 back in Jan. As a righty I stood way left and lofted my hy-road at the outside of the 10 with just a touch of rotation. It clipped the 6 enough to catch the front of the 7 and slid forward to trip the 4. I was in disbelief when the 4 fell!

Picked this one up a couple months ago sliding the 6. I celebrated like I just won the Super Bowl 😂

3:07 bro actually got the 7-10 split on accident😂

"I almost shot 300" "What you shoot?" "279 I missed in the 3rd" 😂😂😂😂😂

The way i tackle them, i try to go about a board more right on the 4 pin, so it had time to ricochet off the 7 and get nore airborne before the ball smacks it again in the pit to shoot it right. I would say ive probably picked it up a dozen times now.

😂that was a blast to watch

I made that split just a couple of weeks ago .. made a 4 - 10 split last night too .. lucky me! .. and it was all just pure luck! .. actually, I have made quite a few of these kinds of splits this year, can't believe how lucky I have been as it certainly wasn't my skill that did it. Every one of these that I have made have been by just barely touching the 4 and skidding it into the 10 or 6-10, actually hooking it all the way from the 5 board on the right to the 4 pin. I have never gotten any of them by bouncing a pin off of the walls.

Need that “I’m sorry!” shirt stat!

My centers' curtains are as bouncy as lead, so the way that I made this once was skimming the very right side of the 4 pin, and it then grazed the 7 pin, went off the sidewall and took out the 6 and 10, like how Packy described at 4:45

I figured you guys would use the strategy from the 7-10 video. Shoot the 7 pin side on the left lanes and 10 pin side on the right lanes. Oh, and W.

Packy I would wanna see you do it as a Lefty ‼️I did it twice in league, hitting the 6-10 I was SO HYPE 🤣😂💪

McCune vs Anthony Neuer. can not go wrong. two strong players.

Be cool to see a 3-6-10 or 2-4-7 center chop challenge. Who hasn't had a few of those beauties?

I have picked up the big 4 and the 4,6,10 and the 6,7,10 and i dont throw fast. I catch the 6 on the right and send it straight over. It just takes a perfect shot with the right amount of hook. Brunswick Kingpin Rule has been extremely good to me on big 6,10 split variations.

Never made the Big Four, been bowling a long time. My buddies and I call it The Nixon Thanks for the entertainment.

I wanna see how many times Mitch could chop the 4 off the big 4... 4 in a row was impressive. 😂

I grew up knowing the Big 4 as double pinochle. Def bring in McCune to do this. Would love to see how many bedposts and greek churches he can make.

I’ve made it twice. One was just a max velocity shot sending the 6 off the back corner of the pit into the opposite gutter, and it rolled up & tapped the 7 back into the 4. The other time was with less velocity and enough revs to straighten out on the first few boards, and the 6 took out the front of the 7, took a good bounce off the side board & got the 4. I don’t think that type of shot works as well with more velocity, as you get less of a forward deflection that way, though it’s probably still possible…I love any excuse to chuck that ball down the lane as fast as possible.

i have made it once threw it as hard as i could at the 10 pin and slid the pin which didn't really slide it was smashed the left side and i have seen this made a few times, they all hooked it left and pin slid over to the right. my wife throws it about 9-11 mph it just about died but had enough rotation to send the pin across. it was a big shot too kept us in the game.

3:00 probably the only guy to ever get a 7-10 and leave a 4-6. LOL

Ive picked up the big four once, going at the 6-10. I liked Mitch’s logic. Still doesn’t compare to my best split conversion. 3-10, missing the 3 completely only to have the 10 jump back out and cover it

A tip told to me from Paul Moser (1976 U.S. Open champ) was to get the ball to roll as little as possible (Thumb and fingers come out at the same time). This makes the ball punch the pin which tends to make it go upward...still need to throw it hard though.

Great video. No let down here. Keep it up :)

Stu’s prediction is so insane!

we need a part 2

Packy when you going live? I have so many questions would love to ask

Sometimes also the bowling alley makes the difference. In some alleys the pins bounce out more than in others.

My boy called a goat for a tip. Chris cool af for that. Lol

The 7-10 Conversion was NOT DISAPPOINTING! But actually Pretty Cool!!

You two should do the various splits videos as a competition. Either reset each lane so you both get a go on it or pick a side of the pairs and only shoot half the center each.

Once on the 6 slide for me. Shot all the way cross lane with curve and barely touched it

I've only picked up the 7-10 and 4-6 once. But the Big 4 and Greek Church I've picked up dozens of times. Greek Church I aim for the 4-7 and clip the 4 in-between the 6-9 to clear the 10. The Big 4, I treat like a 6-7 split and just barely clip the 6 a little less to get the 4-7. I'm right handed

If this challenge is done again, put revs on the spare ball. Since you're a righty shooting at the 7-4 pins the rotation will cause a lifting force on the pin when it contacts the pins due to friction. That's why the 7-4 pins went up in the air while the 6-10 pins kept going down. I know you're flattening your hand, but there's still a little rotation that acts on the pins. The rotation also causes the 7-4 to hit off each other while the rotation causes the 6-10 to spread apart and, in turn, you lose the energy that could've been created from pins hitting together by shooting the 6-10.

I converted the big 4 by sliding the 6 into the 4-7. Almost comical that they fell.

would love to see McCune try your split challenges.

Back in my teenage years in house league, I made my big 4 like Walter. Except I was furious and was trying to “break” the 6,10. I started to turn around like Walter and turned back to see the 6 come out of the pit and cover the spare. I think I still have that ABC patch somewhere 😂😂
