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

Haha I just looked up his averages and achievements, they might as well print that guy a copy of the awards sheet with all his information already on it every year, just fill in date, score, and ball . .

I love to read these threads because according to the masses there is no such thing as a good bowler.  I look at guys with lots of honor scores and high averages and say okay, this is a good bowler.  On this site it seems if you haven't won at least 3 PBA titles, you're not a good bowler.  Heck you could win one title on the PBA tour, but if you heard the guy didn't split boards every shot (because we know no one ever misses their mark) he's a hack too.  If you have 45-300 games, it's because you're a hack and only bowl on house shots.  It's almost as if people think because you bowl on a house shot league that you're guaranteed to shoot honor scores just by showing up.

Anyone that bowls should know no matter how soft a condition you're on, it's still not a given that you're going to shoot honor scores (not saying Fero only bowls honor scores on soft conditions as I don't know anything about him) which is why so many people don't ever shoot a 300 or 800.

I sometimes don't know why I even bother with this game anymore.

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.

Newbie, for your first post, you would have had more credibility if you lowered your voice and used lower case letters where appropriate.

So he lead the U.S. Open a couple years back at some point and qualified very high.  He was a team USA member and you question if he is good.  WOW!  This guy is very good.  He is a big time power guy.  Yes he takes advantage of house conditions but who doesn't.  O did I mention he LEAD a US OPEN at one point.  Not sure the last time a hack has lead at the open but I would venture to say maybe never!

luv2bowl,
     So let me see if I have this correct:
 
You an anonymous name on an internet bowling sight, who says he has honor scores and tournament wins, but doesn't offer up any way to prove that, think you have the right to complain about Mr. Williams whose score and accomplishments are 100% verifiable? You criticize him for being a "house hack" cause he isn't on the Pro Tour, which is now, unfortunately, not something one can make a living at doing full time for all but a very select few because he chooses to stay an amatuer where he can make more money while still hold down a full time job to support himself and his family (if he has one) and provide them with health insurance?
 
Please oh great bowler, please inform us your tournament wins? Please tell us where you placed/cashed in the last few US Opens and USBC Masters? Please tell us how many years you were on Team USA? Please tell us the number of honor scores you shot on non-THS conditions? Please tell us your last few highest verifiable league averages?? I, for one, want to know about such a great bowler like you who is putting down Mr. Williams.
 
And to King60ft....I somehow doubt Fero Williams speaks like that. He used to work the broadcasts from the USBC Open that were webcast out. He is a very well spoken individual. If, indeed, you are Mr. Williams, I would say the following: 1) There is no need to respond these individuals in this way. They are definately not worth it. 2) You should be very proud of your accomplishments and you should let them speak for themselves. 3) Congratulations on all you have accomplished so far and I wish you nothing but success in your continued bowling career.

The average joe bowler can beat anybody on a houseshot at any given time.. Make the conditions tougher, then see who the better bowler is. I shot 300 at Nationals this year, which is nice to add to the resume, but its not even a small percentage of the things he has done.
 
As a friend of his, that really is him. He's called King of 60 Feet for a reason, that's no self-proclaimed name either.

First of all King i was not knocking you at all.i was simply asking the forum a question.i dont know you and i have never seen you bowl in person.sorry if you take offence.When you see stats like yours its fair to assume that you bowl on a walled up shot.So again i apologize if i offended anyone.

Wow you called out the wrong person, I've crossed Fero a few times and been around him at a few tournaments, extremely humble person and phenomenal bowler. I just can't wrap my head around someone question a former TEAM USA MEMBER that has lead at the US OPEN, what more do you need to prove. Keep on doing your thing Fero, you are one of the good people out there and have no need to acknowledge a lame internet tough guy.

This whole topic is the perfect example of why bowling has the reputation and lack of respect that it has.  A person with multiple honor scores (at least by his signature), so obviously a "bowler", comes on and questions the ability of a person that finished as the runner-up at the US Amateur, was on Team USA, has led PBA events, has led at the US Open, won the Bowlers Journal, Hoinke, medals at The Tournament of the Americas and is close to the lead in career 300's and 800's. 

Would someone that played golf question if a guy that was runner-up at the US Amateur and played on the Walker Cup team was a good golfer or if somebody that made it into the bracket at the US Open was a good tennis player?
