    loved the explanations what knowledge of options can do for your bowling success and how important it is to learn about the ball you use and its reactions and your own strengths and limitations as a bowler.

    Awesome, as always. Good info that gives me much to think about. I roll with the TNT, and my older brother will be getting the TNT Infused so we both will be throwing bombs down the lanes at our league nights!

    Very helpful. That lane is like my last week in league. Everything I do is for the Bowlero oil spill. Then sometimes its dry and I have nothing for it. The Infused is a possible buy for me.

    Darren, i have to say that I really do enjoy your video's. And you're spot on with the review of these balls. However, I would like to see you redo this review with a normal house shot so we (if not only me) see how the new Magic Gem and TNT Infused really reacts for the normal house bowler?
    Thank you.

    @daviddeiss7907 Před 8 měsíci

    love all the technical information, was wondering could you do a video explaining how to play the wet dry cliff when transition starts to happen, what balls to go to, how to play the wet vs how to play the dry. in league the first game is usually the best game but by the third game things definitely change especially if there are guys with a lot of revs and I kind of struggle to adjust to that changing environment. I have been basically staying with the same ball that I started league with and moving left plus start slow rolling it to get it to come back to the pocket but what happens is carry go's way down, lots of corner pins.

I have been working with a 3 ball arsenal (2 + 1 spare) for many years and finally decided to expand my "arsenal" to 6 balls. I will be working some overtime to pay for this endeavor.

      It's funny that you brought up the Summit. Luke Rosdahl just posted a Report Card video on the Summit. I have been asking around the other channels about it - Luis Napoles, Beef and Barnzy... They definitely still like it, I think there are so many releases, it will be a while before they come back around to it. Best way to get an answer is to catch them on a livestream.

      Im definitely no pro bowler, but I'd recommend something like a Brunswick Rhino, great ball. I bought one a while back and it lasted a few hundred games, still pretty good for considering I've been bowling a while now

    @billcain7821 Před 8 měsíci

    Excellent video and some very good information. Question: how do you think this TNT Infused will fit in during league night for someone who's a high-speed low rev. bowler? Take note I'm throwing the TNT right now and am looking for a ball that will compliment that once the lanes start transitioning and or have broken down. Right now, all I have is my TNT, my other two balls are from 1992 I have both the Emerald Piranha and the solid Blue Piranha, and those two balls don't work very well on these newer designed synthetic lanes, they're made for the first synthetic lanes when they came out and everyone transitioned from wood lanes (I think you may or may not remember those lanes they looked like they'd been whitewashed or something). Fortunately, I don't have to retire those two balls because it just so happens that on the Airforce base, I bowl league at here in AR are the old synthetic lanes and both those ball work extremely well on those lanes after all these years. Yes, I've tried using my TNT there and it will work but barely and it is a struggle. My TNT works very well at the lanes off base that I bowl league at and neither of those Piranhas work at all on those lanes. Keep up the good work, we'll be looking forward to your next video and you and your family have a good, safe and blessed rest of your evening and weekend.

    Im 14, And im a freshman on my high school bowling team. I want to go pro at some point and join the PBA tour. I have been taking bowling seriously for about 6 months now and have really gotten into the sport. I've joined league near where I live and want to keep growing throughout high school. My high game is 212 with the black widow 2.0 hybrid. My high average is about 160. Ever since I fell in love with the sport I've always had a dream to join the PBA tour when I get older. Once I get enough experience this year i'm going to join Junior gold with my friend so I can get into some more sport patterns whether their short or long patterns. I have the Black widow 2.0 hybrid, The roto grip DUO and a t-zone. When I get close to the start of the Junior gold season I would like to get the pitch black for sport patterns. I would also like to visit the Kegel training academy at some point soon so I can get the best training and feedback. Ill also consider joining your course Darren!

    😅It's funny that everyone hypes this ball up. I baught one. Ever since I got it drilled it has not been a good performer for me.
    I tried to give it a second chance tonight and bowled 6 games with it. I shoot a good 20 or 30 pins less than I do with my DV8 Brutal Collision.
    It's so hard for me to strike with the magic compared to the DV8 it's crazy.
    Im sure it works great for some people but for me it's a total flop. 😢
    The pro shop guy drilled it the pin up and right. Maybe its the way its drilled....
