Fero Williams
« on: March 23, 2014, 12:14:23 PM »
I read up about this guy,and his stats are amazing.My question is,is he the real deal or just a product of soft house conditions . If he is that good why is he not making money on the tour.I also read somewhere that his sport average is around 186.If thats true it makes me feel good cuz mine is a paltry 175.So those of you who might know him feel free to weigh in...This is no way a shot at him or his stats so i hope its not taken that way....thanks

You don't fake your way onto Team USA. 

The number of honor scores he has is a product of soft house conditions.

is a joke they probably cater the shot to him if he was so good he would be making money all over the world bowling and at least in the national pba tourneys but he doesnt so we all know what that means. just another typical house bowler

Lol, gotta love the anonymity of the internet.

A simple google search showed he bowls in the US Open yearly, and has bowled in the Masters a few times as well.  Though he certainly hasn't won a PBA even (not many people do), he has made the casher's round multiple times.

What have you done?

Ha, ha, ha! Too funny my friend. I know him and bowl with him in league. Trust me when I say this...."He's the real deal". Yes, his honor scores come because he bowls on a lot of soft THS shots, but the difference is this...whereas I might be able to shoot 256 on a shot like that, this dude shoots 299, 300, back to back, like it is a walk in the park. No one caters to him. He's just GOOD! He makes plenty of money also, by the way. But please b sure and let us know when you post an honor score of note.   ;) ::)

I can name plenty of guys that make more money NOT bowling on the national tour.  There's actually more money on the amateur level these days if you live in the right area.  Honestly to make good money on the "tour" you have to be in the top 10 in the world, that's quite a challenge in my opinion.  And idk what Fero does for a living, but maybe he has a really good job where it doesn't make sense to lose money on "tour"

storm making it rain hit it right on the nose I was told by couple tour guys back in the 80's and early 90's with the job I had and the benefits it didn't make any sense to try the tour full time.

Fero has been the real deal for about 18 years now.  Anyone with half a clue that doesn't live in a town with a population of 2000 that has only bowled in two centers in their life knows this.

JOEC1619 and LUV2BOWL12xs THIS POST IS HILARIOUS TO ME BUT YOUR OPINION IS YOUR OPINION. WHEN EITHER ONE OF YOU HAVE DONE AT LEAST A 1/4 WHAT I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED THEN BY ALL MEANS PLEASE LET'S ME KNOW. ANYONE IS STRONG BEHIND A KEYBOARD AND TO SAY I'M JUST A HOUSE BOWLER BECAUSE I DON'T BOWL ON TOUR IS IGNORANCE AT IT'S BEST. I DIDN'T GO ON TOUR BECAUSE IT WOULD'VE BEEN A BAD BUSINESS DECISION SO I DECIDED TO CHASE THE AMATEUR MONEY. IF YOU THINK GOING OVERSEES IS DO GREAT THEN I CAN SELL YOU BEACH FRONT PROPERTY IN NEBRASKA. MY HONOR SCORES IS NOT WHAT DEFINES MY GAME IS MY TOURNEY WINNINGS ON SPORT PATTERNS THAT YOU DON'T HEAR ABOUT WHICH DEFINES MY GAME. I'VE WON MAJOR TOURNEYS AND SWEEPERS AND HAVE FINISHED 2ND IN USA AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP. SO NEXT TIME EITHER ONE OF YOU CALL ME OUT TO BE A HOUSE BOWLER POST YOUR RESUME ON HERE AND SHOW US WHAT YOU DONE.

Mr. Williams definitely hit this one on the head.  In speaking to some of the guys that I know that have been on the tour, they have all shared a common theme. If you are not part of the top 5 in the world, don't quit your day job.  The money that you think is there does not exist on the PBA tour.

I have not had the privilege to Mr. Williams bowl in person, but I have been able to read about him and see some things on you-tube.  If I lived in the same area he did, I would definitely love to be a student of his.

Is that really Fero or a troll?  If it's Fero, it's freaking awesome . . heard about that guy for a LONG time.  And yeah the amateur money is a lot better.  If you bowl too many PBA events there are a lot of amateur events you're prohibited from participating in also.
