two handed bowlers
« on: March 21, 2010, 04:46:12 AM »
i was just watching the pba telecast and there was a segment with jason belmonte and he said that there aren't too many two handers at the highest level, claiming there were 4 of them. All i can think of is belmonte, osku palermaa and cassidy schaub. Who is the other one?

Probably Brian Valenta from Lockport, Illinois.  Brian is a former member of Junior Team USA, a collegiate all-american when he bowled at Lindenwood University.  And he's bowled very well before at the US Open finishing in the top 10 one year as an amateur.  Recently he's been doing a fair share of PBA regional events, and he was PDW's doubles partner last year in the member/non member doubles.  

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxQSTQ_CdlY  Brian is the first one bowling in this video.  

There is one thing he can probably do better than all the other two handed bowlers before mentioned.  He can play the extreme Maxium Bob Angles better than them, and he can launch the left gutter cap very well and score when it's deemed necessary.

I disagree on the ability to play in.  Belmo and Osku can really get left...Osku can play some ridiculous loft and get it to strike when he needs it.
