Your opinion is fine, but there was no need for all this trash talk.

I figured it was since I hadnt seen that ball yet. It didnt look like it matched todays conditions too well....with his style anyways. I'd like to see it thrown by a high rev player to see how different it would react.

Well I'm a high rev player and thus far the ball has worked out well for me.  I still need to use it in practice this coming Tuesday to really give it a work out though.  The layout I picked for my test ball was drilled with our current higher oil pattern in mind: 4 x 3 pin below ring finger weight and weight hole on my midline.  I double drilled the thumb so that I didn't have to place the weight hole in my thumb quadrant.  Ball does just what I wanted...starts to pick up it's roll a good 5 feet before my other equipment and makes a really hard arc back to the pocket.  We'll see how it pans out on Tuesday and league on Thursday!

Well, apparently we have some Steve Jaros fans here. I was commenting on his style, not the man in particular. With that style, it would work well on PWBA conditions as you can see the conditions WERE much softer for the ladies and their throwing styles. I think his style is woman like and that is my opinion. Namby pamby is just a loose description. Be able to accept criticism of your favorites. I sure do (PDW fan here!)


Hmmmmmmmmmmm, unless I'm mistaken, the women were throwing on pure sport shots.  The men threw on sport shots for a few weeks a few years ago and it was a disaster.  Some poor lane surfaces were partly to blame, but scores were way down.  If anything, the men play on slightly softer conditions.

Ask any bowling expert and they will say the women bowled on soft conditions then. Ask Bill Hall, Salvino, Spigner, etc. and they will tell you the same thing. It may have been a "sport" condition, but how regulated was the condition? When the women did that couples bowling with the men, some cigarette or beer sponsored tournament I do not remember the name, the women's score were considerably down and the men were killing them. In the women's tours, with their conditions, the women have more area than the men because of their releases and the fact they don't have as much power and speed as the men. When you combine most men's styles and shots, the lane conditions influence on the reaction of their bowl is greatly magnified. I can tell that every person on here will not agree with anything I said, but it is nothing I came up with on my own, just Jaros' bowling style. The experts on the bowling community is where I have received my other comments. I commend Liz on her ability to adapt to the lane conditions as to where Jaros cannot. His style is bland.


Bland enough to win 3 titles last year

If his style is to blame then why has he been on the tour for 20+ years. Just because he is not a huge power player like PDW or people like does not mean he can't compete. I actually miss seeing people like him who do go down and in instead of throwing the big crank. It is easy for all of us to sit here and say he should have done this or that. I don't know if you have ever throwen on any of the PBA patterns at all. If you have you know just how difficult they are to compete on. I had the chance last summer to throw on them and am looking forward to doing it again this summer. Sixcranker you can have your thoughts about him. I would still count him as someone who could win any week.

How did he get to the finals if he didn't dominate for the week on this same pattern?

Jaros threw the ball like crap today and I am sure if you ask him, he woulk say the same thing.. He needs to change alot of stuff to play up there with the big boys out there now like TJ.. He has been out there 21 years but times have changed and he better to..

I don't think it would have mattered what ball or company he was using. His ball reaction was terrible..

He has an old classic style that works why change it. Ok go for PDW but if I am not mistaken he is also having problems this year. Hell I would love to have the solid form that Jaros has. Yeah I will agree with you Duke has the ablilty to change from down and in to being able to swing the ball. If you look at a lot of the players most of them have the A game they try to use on every condition. Sometimes it works sometimes it is to late to change to make a difference. Steve has bowled like this for years and it has worked for him. There are times when a down and in line with slower ball speed would work out the best sometimes yes the power bowler will do better. I am not one to complain about anyones form or style or anything if THEY are GOOD enough to be on the tour. I know that I will never be out there or will ever have the game they do.
