On today's edition of PRODIGY BOWLERS TOUR, we began the day with ten young bowlers and winnowed the field down to eight in a two-game qualifier. Those eight players were paired up -- four scratch bowlers and four handicap bowlers -- into four doubles teams, each one comprised of a scratch player and a handicap player, for a Best Ball Doubles competition.
In Best Ball, both partners receive an opportunity to strike in the frame (unless the first one strikes). If neither one strikes, they choose which spare to shoot, and the one who left it sits down as his partner shoots the spare.
We've done Best Ball on PRODIGY before, but never with a combination of scratch and handicap players.

Does that include the one that you spoiled in the previous video
I've never seen a 2,4,7,8,10 either! Ever! Wow!
Great episode, as usual! I like seeing new faces. I was very impressed with Christopher and the amount hook he got with his ball. It seemed to be a control shot.
I usually end up rooting for the home team, and like to see the Bowlero Roswell kids win. This is *NOT* a spoiler. It's a statement of fact, and nothing should be inferred from its content.
Great episode, and a great format.
I love this format. The first time I ever saw it was on a "CBS Sports Spectacular" broadcast back in the mid 1960s where the team of Dick Weber and Bob Strampe bowled against the team of Glenn ("Mr. 900") Allison and Carmen Salvino The voices you hear on the broadcast are the legendary baseball announcer Pee Wee Reese and bowling legend Billy Welu. czcams.com/video/QhAOrJ4K9_0/video.html
Then, as I mentioned in the opening of today's show, this same Best Ball Doubles format was used on a 1960s/'70s TV series called "Celebrity Bowling," which was hosted by Jed Allen. Mr. Allen just recently passed away, so RIP, Jed Allen. He was one of very few Hollywood figures who was enough of a bowling enthusiast to put bowling front and center in the entertainment world. Here's one episode of Celebrity Bowling. There are many more on CZcams. czcams.com/video/S5CnUSvuo8w/video.html
lol, coach randy...its you cant see me, not you owe me, it's a wwe shirt for john cena
Whatever. If it has anything at all to do with wrestling, you can be sure that I don't know about it.
Nice video keep up the good work. 👍
I’ve said this once and I’ll say it again, Hunter is just too good to be in the littles league! He has some real skill and should probably be bumped up to the scratch league! Love the vids randy!
Huey - Hunter has requested that he move up to our Roswell Varsity league this Fall. He’d be about a year ahead of schedule in doing so, but it would not be unprecedented. Christian did the same thing.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour hi
Jessies one handed 10 pin shot is better than my 10 pin shooting lol
‘‘Twas Anthony’s fever pitch. It always is lol
Fantastic production again as usual. I've never seen this best ball format before but it's highly entertaining. Lots of intricacies involved with it and it's interesting to see the strategies the kids develop to proceed with the best course of action. Hopefully there's more of these in the future.
We’ve done this a time or two before. I like this format, too.

Randy I was also thinking of a 300
Thanks for an excellent episode! Christopher appears to have a very strong "lane presence" (for lack of a better term). That is pretty rare for someone that young.
He's definitely got a little swagger to him.
A longer approach might help generate more ball speed and tame that hook a little bit.
Yeah, this was the first time I'd ever seen him bowl. He isn't in our program. He bowls over at Cherokee Lanes in Canton.
I'm sure you've mentioned it to him, but Christian would probably do well to get the ball closer to his ankle at release, like Tristin
I've included it in a Coach's Clicker on this show before. And I've talked to him about it about a hundred times. We were at the bowl again today, and not only did I mention it, but the guy in the pro shop, who is a highly skilled player himself, mentioned it, too. He also echoed something else that I've been preaching to Christian for years about his hoisting the ball to the top of the swing (rather than just letting his arm swing from the shoulder socket, not "lifting it" to the top of the swing) and just letting it drop from the top. I keep hoping that if Christian hears this stuff from enough people he trusts, he might actually believe that the fat, old guy actually knows what he's talking about. ............. Nahhh....that ain't gonna happen.
@@ProdigyBowlersTour true, and just saying, I meant Tristin could work on that too, not that Christian should strive to do what Tristin does, in case there was any confusion
When lights went out in the Georgia.
Would you have enough "littles" to feature in your future video?
irishpogi - Well, we’ll see. If we set out to do a Littles Only event, I hope we attract a few. The thinking behind this one goes something like this: It began as a way to accommodate the wishes of a mother in San Francisco who wanted to bring her 7-year-old son to Atlanta to bowl PRODIGY. She didn't realize at the time that our season would be over by the time her planned travel date came. But it got me to thinking, she wanted to bring him in July 20th, which is the final weekend of Junior Gold. I figured most junior bowlers U12 and older would be in Detroit (or would hope they're still in Detroit) for JG. But that the little kids too young to be competitive in Junior Gold and their parents might find it a perfect weekend to come bowl PRODIGY, since all the older ones would be gone.
Will it work? Who knows. But I'm putting the word out there, and I guess we'll see. I've wanted to do a Littles Only PRODIGY episode for two years and it just hasn't happened. But I've never thrown the promotional weight behind it that I could. So I guess we'll find out.
Christian throws a great ball
i love to bowl with u guys someday in prodigy bowlers tour iam a big fan of everyone that on it
Come see us sometime. Maybe June 29th when we have our final event of the season, where both you AND your parents can bowl.
Randy, did I hear rightly in the broadcast that you're going to host a tournament with scholarship prize money? If so, some fans might like to contribute to the prize fund. Is there a way to do so?
There is not. The money comes from the two leagues' prize funds. We use part of it to fund awards (trophies, plaques for team achievements and individual achievements like high game, high series, high average, etc.) and the rest goes too the scholarship money paid out in the season-ending tournament. (A little bit goes to the pizza party at the end, too.)
I LOVE YOU
It says u can’t c me
Andrew Bell bowling it's alright
How many revs on Christopher's ball?
David Talkington I don't even know myself
Prob like 70rpm lol
Looks like nicks got some competition with Jesse
Never had Kellogg's pep! Cardboard or caviar?..not that I like caviar either!😛
Isn't that something? Can't believe I found that ad. If I'd ever seen it, I must have been really young. I don't even remember the cereal.
Hey kids
Quite like Dylan’s game
You owe me is a new take on a John Cena shirt and I feel like that could be a good gimmick as Cena gets older. Did he retire? Anyone know?
He's doing movies right now. A break if you will. He still shows up for events.
Wow Christian was little when he first started
Apex Gaming was only about 2.5 yrs ago
We were all little when we first started.
Black widow pink :)
"Overperform", "Sandbag": To-may-to, To-mah-to
What pink ball was Garrett throwing
alexaviermunoz _ he was throwing the pink widow to my knowledge
The black widow ball
SPOILER!! I like pizza
Like these videos! But I will say...to Jesse...damn, kid...if you have to be somewhere else So bad, then DON'T BOWL! You left an excited kid hanging! Leave Jesse OUT of future events! At lease the TV events. Oh, and I never realized I had "purist" in me so much as I did in this video. I am further convinced that bowling with 2 hands should be either a different league or class of roller, OR, stick to a rule where you MUST have one finger and a THUMB in a ball to be regulation!!!! Not to say it shouldn't be able to be done, but it should NOT be included with traditional bowling!!!! All of the sudden it's th cool thing to do. Yeah, I know...we want to get more people AND especially kids involved and interested in bowling. But...
Don't be so gruff. These are KIDS for crying out loud. Sometimes it's not them who have to be somewhere. Sometimes it's their parents. Just chill, dude. And leave the anti-two-handed stuff at the door. You won't find a very receptive audience with me. It's the wave of the future. You sound like the old fogeys who were complaining that Mark Roth was doing something illegal with the ball back when he first burst on the scene with his powerful delivery. The game evolves, just like all sports do. Either accept that evolution or be relegated to the dust bin of history. I may be too old and fat to bowl two-handed. But if I wasn't, it's the way I would want to bowl today. And you better face up to the fact that Belmonte has done more to make bowling cool again than any five Roy Buckleys ever did. (No offense Sphinx.) The simple truth is, after a long period of time when very few kids were getting interested in our sport, the two-handed style has made legions of young people want to bowl again. I'm all for it. Those who aren't just declare themselves to be relics of the past. Ain't nobody hearing it. Including me.
