If Darren were a country singer, he could be Darren Twang.
Now I wanna see that(I'm a metalhead٫ I don't like a lot of country music٫ but if Darren made country music٫ I'd so listen to it)
He certainly doesn't look like a country singer.
@@stupendous1068 To you he may not but I see it, not trying to be an asshole btw
@@julianthebowler He needs a cowboy hat.
@@stupendous1068 Exactly, then he’ll be the cowboy bowler
The fact that hes even somewhat accurate bowling that way is insane

I wouldn't say that - the only difference is the way the wrist flicks and what fingers do the lifting. I've back-up bowled my entire life, my wrist just refuses to turn the 'right' way. Just means I look like a lefty until you watch my hand.
@@lauralyn8785 Also, your wrist is normally strongest through a supinated position, with force going through the pinky and ring fingers as that's the major flexors in the forearm connect.
not hard at all

There are people with way weirder styles that are great at it. Tim Cagle II, Jim Cripps (aka the Backwards Bowler). If you practice enough you can be good at just about anything.
3:06 That rev rate is insane💯
Damn that is such a violent back up ball soo smooth and dialed in
He definitely has got some talent.... I think the lights and cameras impacted him enough to throw him off his game. Plus, rolling against Darren has quite a bit of intimidation factor mixed with excitement from meeting a celebrity pro athlete.
Gee shot 300 at the Military Tournament the other day! He's also leading in points!
He's got better ball roll as a backup bowler than I do as an actual lefty 😂
Vegas knows what's up with Lil Gee and his fam! All great bowlers!
Started doing this on my own when I was a kid (mostly to pick up the ten pin). Had no idea anyone else did it for a long time and just now learned that there’s an actual term for it.
Pretty sure I bowled with Gee and his family at State in Vegas a few years back. Saw him bowl a 300 if it's the same guy lol was mesmerized by the back up ball!

Got to watch the process of this video being made! so happy to meet Darren he’s a great guy even when he’s got the booked schedule
Wow! That's the most powerful spin I've ever seen on a backup ball!
D.Tang is one of my favorite bowlers that I learn alot from
Darren: don't hook at your spares kids
Bowlers that never developed, not being able to throw straight: watch this
aw man, he tilted himself when he missed that turkey and couldn't get the spare T_T
damn. he was DELETING those pins too.
but lovely turkey on your end. i love watchin you bowl. the smooth transition
from hand to lane with no loud ass sound is *chef kiss*
uh wtf just happened, 4:08 we said the same thing almost.....
that's scary AND trippy as hell
I just like him rocking the Creating The Difference patch.
Seeing this and seeing someone throw backup so perfectly is amazing bc i do backup ball
Saw Gee bowl when I was in Vegas to practice before I went to the Open Championship.
When he finds that line, those pins fly.
I'd really like a slow mo video of the action he puts on the ball from behind.... incredible video regardless!
Glad to see you using your right arm again :)
Its good to see right hand dtang back at it!
Fantastic video!
Darren looking good in those shoes!
2 fantastic bowlers!
Dude really felt good after those first 2 shots haha.
Oh shoot. Greg is awesome bowler and even better dude.
That guy is Fun to watch Bowl. Holy Crap!!!
The Mintz family are from NY. Bowled UBA. Cool people. Cool to see him doing this video. Mom and dad are good bowlers as well.
Darren is sooooooo natural in front of the camera. Great job !!!!
That's my boy G from Staten Island 💯💯💯
That’s wild!!! 💯💯💯
I bowled with him last weekend at Southpoint. Him and his family can flat out kill it.
If your ever in Eugene, Oregon, you might want to bowl with Glen Clark Jr. and Travis Warner at STRIKE CITY, HWY 99 North. Jeff True at FIRS BOWL, River Road near the Randy Pape Beltline.
i REAAAAAAAALLY love that green splash/tyedye ball or w/e the pattern is called...
i really really love it
Wow, such a fascinating style. I didn't know that was a thing.
I like that he throws motiv!
Awesome vid
He’s really not bad his mechanics are just so dynamic they are hard to repeat
It was fun to watch him bowl for sure… What kind of ball speeds did he have? It look like it was getting down there pretty fast lol. 🤪
Around 17 mph ..I have seen him first hand in league and it is definitely impressive…
Glad D tang humbled my guy
I love the black venom it's soooo good
best backup bowler no debating he was too smooth with it !!
Damn miss that boy Greg.... bowled league with him and his pops at jersey lanes...
dude said you're in trouble then missed pocket 4 times in a row, I love bowling lol
Would be cool to see him bowl with your close up off the hand camera
That paragraph joke has me dying 😂
Very interesting throw from gee in my opinion
The captions “he’s gonna blow me straight up” 💀
Hope to see you in vegas august 19-23
I love this video because I also use a backup
I really need a new bowling ball
You have the coolest bowl released I’ve ever seen bro
Let’s go Gee 💪
great strike shot when he hits target and the pocket but his misses are punished so hard
All based off his speed and revs
Shout out to my guy Lil Gee and the Mintz family…Hall of Fame Mother and Father and soon to be son… Much love my boy from da SwitchBlade
Yeah bring him back. He has an interesting style
been a back up bowler for 25 years. a pretty good one too.
Anytime I see someone praising backup balling, it makes me consider uploading myself. I’m a 2 hander and can throw a backup ball from the right gutter to the left gutter and strike with 500+ rpm’s consistently
I bet hes rolling that backup ball 485+ RPM. Thats some insane power he puts on it. Id be afraid my fingers wouldnt come out the ball clean and I'd snap my fingers😂
A right handed bowler bowling left is wild
Funny but I tried to get backup bowlers to bowl the lefties line when I was a tournament bowler back in the 80s and none of them would try it. 🙂
Gee Mintz 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Definitely would love the challenge. 🤝🏽💯😅😎
I like how Darren’s last strike was a Brooklyn - maybe he should have thrown a back up 😮
There’s a back up bowler in AZ who’s averaging 230
Backhanding everything is crazy
Being able to hook the ball either direction is a great skill. I’ve tried backing up (thumb in lefty) at my 7 pins and I just can’t do it accurately or consistently.
I wanted to see Gee shoot a 7 pin. Maybe he'd throw a normal hook
@@coopergates9680doubt it cause I never have
I did back up in bowling. it was fun to do
Speaking of urethane in league, on our Tuesday night The other team had three older men throwing urethane. 1 guy throwing a pitch black 7 mph up 10. Another guy throwing an old urethane rhino 9mph. And another guy who actaully throws it decent using a purple hammer...it was awful, the left lane was 5 boards tighter than the right lane 😂
Other great video Darren. Long time watcher and like presser . I wold love to challenge you and take your ZEN BALL GOOD. I bowl overseas balls thought. My Storm lock's series can handle most.. 😅
The fact he is bowling it right handed and spinning right is huge compared to bowling right & spinning left is huge!!!!!!!!!!
righty throwing a ball the curves right
Looking good, once i got to high school, the coaches said i should change my game from a backup, averaged 195 at the time, just shows if work hard enough at something you can excel at it, wonder if i had stuck with it i would've got better, can't complain though got a scholarship and i have the coaches to thank for that. idk about the green patch though on his jersey, we all know bill "the elitist" freitas would tell him he would be way better as a conventional bowler like how he criticized the wrong foot and the backwards bowler.
Bright lights always get the best of us.
A Right handed Lefty, that's a pretty rare sight
I’m the opposite Left handed righty (fractured hand age 10, everything switched to Left hand, but still write primarily with right)
Also I use index&middle digits no thumb either
@@aceassn716 That is a pretty interesting grip. Left Handed Righty reffers to how he gets the ball to spin the other way, how a Lefty would get it to while bowling right handed
I used to throw a small backup ball to pick up 10 pins but quit because I was afraid I was putting too much stress on my elbow. Throwing a backup ball with that many revs makes my elbow hurt by just watching.
Backup
Should bowl against a good wrong foot bowler
I throw the backup ball when you coming back to Philly 😮
That logo though.... Man Darren I want to do Pro v Am and I'm coming back to Vegas. I'll donate products for you to giveaway and a Storm Ball 😊
My Guy Lil Gee!!
Since you’re in Vegas, you should check out Pat Hunt. He is the best backup bowler I’ve ever seen. He averaged 230 in his prime
Pat Hunt is a beast! Best backup bowler in Vegas hands down!
Watching Gee bowl is like watching Tom Smallwood, but in fast forward
when u said best backup bowler I throught u were bowling against simson lol and doesn't he work for Ronald hickland I see it on his jersey! I he ge got lessons from Ronald hickland! and he good bowler beside promoting his product lol
Good game
Lil G!! Cool kid! Great bowler!
Very cool, I will be in Vegas end of January 2024 for tournament at south point! I will bowl a couple games with you if your available around that time?
Simo vs. Gee vs. Palermaa backup would be somethin' else. That Japanese lady, too
Omg how does he do that? Backward spin. Amazing!!!
He's a backup baller meaning he twists his wrist the opposite way its supposed to
There aren't many backup bowlers I've seen hit as consistently as him. That or I've seen too many people on their worst days with that throw. Backup ball always has a ridiculously violent pin reaction.
I used to bowl exactly like him but now I’m a right side bowler I only bowl invert when pins are in that right corner
Darren got new shoes?
Are those new shoes darren? If so what are they?
Next Pro V Am challenge should be that you have to bowl with the pinky finger and the ring finger
Wait I thought this was a very very common way of shooting I found my style and it’s this one after bowling for about 4 hours straight first and came out w this technique in my own before watching any CZcams vids but now I can at least improve it
That kid gone last for another 2 years max with that throw 😅😅
If your ever in Oregon let me know. I would love to loose to you by 100 😂
The endless tenth is activated on any fill ball strike (fyi)
Maybe do a give away to one person every state!?! That would be a fair way to get to your fans in every state !
@Darren I ask coming to Vegas for Thanksgiving this year do you want to challenge?
Storm Fate 👀🔥
That is some nasty work on that backup 🫢
