In the same time since he has gone on this record run...another fellow has thrown 900 in NJ. It was in the American Bowler. Let's hope nobody on this site finds out about it!

There has never been any allegations he didn't do it except ONE post here...that has never responded back when questioned. Why is he thought of as a fraud...because what he did was hard for many of us to conceive of!
The first one was not approved ONLY because league did not have paperwork in.
The other 900 I saw was listed in print in this months American Bowler put out to sanctioned bowlers by the USBC.

I mean, come on, I have been in a lot of bowling centers and seen a whole lot of good bowlers in my day. Actually, I've seen a lot of great local bowlers as well. A lot of them were at or better than a 211 average. I bowl with one guy on Thursday who, on any given week, is as good as he wants to be. Point is, a lot of people are good.
But, this kid, at 211, is NOT 852, 900, 900, 900, 900 good. Realistically and objectively, take a look at those numbers. And now think about a 211 average. Good, but not that good.
I'm almost as sick of hearing about this kid as I am of the Steelers this week.

Again...no one has ever said he didn't do it ...except one person! Who has not answered questions about the allegations he made on this site!
255 in league...on a walled shot is still...255 in league.. incredible.
Supernoodle...so there are no 900s in your book that deserve your respect cause they've all been shot in league on top hats except Norm Duke had one over 2 sessions on the pro tour!
You are good!

PS I've watched the brief video shot of this guy and 240+ on a league condition certainly looked like the type of powerful style he had. My hat is off to him a future fellow alumnus of my Mother from Carthage high, NY!!

If these scores were legit, it would have to be the easiest house shot (with the most incredible carry) in the world... (to just edge out the place in IL were Nagy averages like 258, throws 45 800's and the lady throws like 28 300's all in one season). Where are the other big scores in this house? The kid is a fraud... parents are frauds.. they are probably trying to get him a free ride to college or something... open your eyes!!!

What ball was he throwing in any of his 900's?
If this was a legitimate score i'm sure that ball company would be putting his picture/bio all over their website.
Wouldn't you agree.

Post by: LuckyLefty on February 03, 2006, 07:29:53 PM
Lefty in the zone is just stating facts for you about his scoring. Again...in league with other bowlers this past weekend he shot 852!
Why is the bad thing that he was 17!
I saw Ben Crenshaw in the US open in 1971 at Merion golf course. He was incredible the day I saw him! He had just turned 18 and his girlfriend and future wife looked every bit as good as Tiger Woods new wife!
He played with Gene Littler a fantastic pro golfer...a young prodigy himself as a youth and a previous winner of the US open and a tied for 1st in a Masters which he lost in a playoff. He also went on to a fantastic senior career.
That day I saw him young Crenshaw outhit every drive Mr. Littler hit by about 40 yards frequently flying the ball past the end of Mr. Littler's drive. He carved up this tight tricky US open course by controlling his ball like no one else we saw that day...carving shots left or right at command and exhibiting non of the crookedness he evidenced as a pro. He floated majestic soft pitches and chips several times and made about 3 or 4 40 footers during the round.
As he approached the last hole we left him and we heard he double bogied and missed tieing the course record because of this bad hole! We were convinced we had just seen the next Bobby Jones. Little did we know that he would decide to take lessons from other coaches than Harvey Penick and become incredibly crooked as a pro! Still the winner of two Masters and almost a PGA.
When I next saw him as a pro he was in the process of winning the Phoenix open by showing golfers how to win tournaments by playing golf in a style called Army golf! Left right left right left right! I don't remember him on the fairway! He was never as good as the day I say him a day or so after his 18th birthday!
REgards,
Luckylefty
PS if he had asked me I could have told him how his swing had changed but alas he didn't...as I had paid $10 to get in! It is a good thing I didn't get to tell him.... Watching a guy hit every fairway and putt like that could get boring! Luckily at that time I hit like Greg Norman and Unfortunately I putt like Ben Crenshaws great grandmother!

No on e in the history of the game has shot 2 900. Only 7 aknowledgedd ones are known. But he now claimes to shoot 4 in a two month span, I would call him a liar at any age.
I believe he made have shot one but I find it suspecious that the USBC denied the first one when they have let the tchnicallity go by in the past on other scores.
So they have fabricated another to get him his score and get around the violations of the first one.
I've seen the video... he is nothing special... I've seen a hundred around here who throw it as well or better.
Giv e him the score, let the game to he11, and let lucky be delusional.

Another way of looking at this is that its like golfing and having an ace on a par 3 without anyone watching. Now does it count or doesnt it. You only know for yourself unless someone is around to see it happen.
But my point here is this, lefty or whoever you guys can put your .02 cents on this, but I would be more readily excepting of this kids accomplishment if I didnt keep hearing the yipping from him. Trying to defend himself, or have he dad handle all the press, or this or that. So that makes me really doubtful.
Post by: NOTHUMB on February 04, 2006, 09:24:00 AM
I said---congrats---but ridiculous.
It is ridiculous. It shouldnt happen once much less how many times it happened. Whether or not he actually shot the 900s by merit is another issue.
My issue is that it makes this sport into even more of a joke. I always say, you can only bowl as well as you can on your given set of conditions. Apparently he is doing his best. Its still a joke.
People attacked me when I criticized him---and now look, everybody is on the bandwagon. Gee, if you all would just face the truth---ITS A JOKE.

What happened to when prodigies came around and people admired them and tried to emulate them.
I've watched the tape and I have always wished I was a better walled condition bowler.
Bowled with a guy this week that went like 27X 26x to finish night and the 3 times he didn't strike were bad luck! He has a GREAT area release though He doesn't throw it as powerfully as this kid.
You know what I'm talking about ...the area release thumb out a long time before the fingers ball staying on the fingers forever! In bowling secrets of the pros
High Scoring Made Simple..by Bill Horvath (http://"http://www.bowlingsbookstore.com/catbkins.html?mgiToken=469E7616466B3C65D1#High%20Scoring%20Made%20Simple")
Bill explains the secret is this early release of the thumb which leads to tremenendous area. Having a great match of speed and revs also helps and strenght like this kid appears to have doesn't hurt much either.
Thsi kid has what Bowling Secrets above talks about...it will not surprise me if he throws ANOTHER 900 or two in the next two years(OF Course on a walled condition!)! And some might be in practice and some might be in prebowl.
If people had reacted like this when Roger Bannister broke 4:00 in the mile or Vasilev Alexeev broke 500 pounds in the Clean and Jerk these guys may have been burned at teh stake.... Instead the 4 minute mile was broken many times immediately after people believed it could be done. Instead the 500 pound clean and jerk was broken about 30 times in the next two years....Now people believed. But times have changed...Disdaining accomplishment is a national disease!
And so it is with this accomplishment....those that quote statistics in their heads about why it is improbable to throw the next strike...Won't. Those that don't think they can or are ahead of their average so maybe they should get back to normal...WILL! Those that say...."I've only been bowling for a year and I'm not even lefthanded...I can't win this tournament...WONT!
However, those that think.. "I can do this". "Isn't accomplishment FUN".
"Just because others can't doesn't mean I CAn't".
But like Robert Mushtare thinks...."I have this ability to throw strikes on this type of condition....and I'm just going to keep doing it....OVER AND OVER AND OVER....this is fun!" "I can see it and I can feel it"
I say it every day when I post...."Open the door(your mind) see what's possible...and walk right thru!"
He has shown you the possible...accept the gift.... walk thru the door and explore your OWN personal potential! This is the old style of encountering accomplishment...it is so much more fun than bitterness! And leads to greater accomplishment for you ...whereas bitterness leads to stagnation at your current level!

Someone who is making allegations of fraud!
This happened here before and then there were no more backup of the allegations!
Let's here em! Right here...not somewhere else!
The "No one has ever done it before ...does not mean anything"!
That is just a mindset...and not one that leads to success I might add!
Bring it here...let's hear the detailed fraud allegations. I have heard the statistics....If I was a person who believed in statistics...if Tiger woods was a person who believed in statistics...I would not have accomplished the several little crazy things I've accomplished in sports and neither would Tiger Woods have accomplished the almost weekly impossible things he seems to keep on doing! Neither would have Arnold Palmer...or Jack Nicklaus these guys if they believed in statistics would have reverted to their mean level of play everytime they were in contention...instead they skied when faced with the chance of accomplishment..everytime...no ....but many many times. These people of accomplishment...defy!! statistics!

PS As I told myself once...."The pins don't know you are not left handed...the pins don't know this is your one year anniversary of bowling lefthanded" "The other guys don't think like you do! and picture what you believe possible" "The pins know only physics!"
PPS and what I believe Robert Mushtare must think every throw..."The pins don't know I'm only 17!""" "The pins know only physics!"""
PPPS We have a guy on this site who I believe shot 33 or 34 strikes in a row this year to start a set....Jon Brandon...formerly Big Bully. I bet you if you asked him if he gets the chance again...I bet you he'll tell you "The first time...I believed I was lucky to get there....the next time....I'm expecting to finish it out!"""" "And then again!" I guarentee you that if you ask him he will tell you it was the mind and not the body that prevented him from goin all the way...and that he WILL do it THIS TIME!!

LL, that's the whole point here. What this kid claims to have accomplished has NEVER been accomplished by ANYBODY in ANY SPORT! A rough equivalent to shooting a 900 would be winning a golf tournament and never shooting more than 62 in ANY round! Now do that 4 times in as many months. Jack, Arnie and Tiger haven't done that.

All outstanding performances...defy probablilities. Anymore they are often so far above the averages of probability that they defy description. And yet people do them...they soar above their average performance.
I've had these out of body hyper performances.. just a few...I expect them and when they start happening...I just let them and I don't interfere! It is one of the greatest thrills in life!
Superconsistent winners like Tiger Woods, and Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer in his day had a way of performing better under pressure than their averages! Defying probablilities...over and over and over!
As we all know the human body can do this. Statistics...probabilities say teh US olympic team of 1980 should not even have made the top 8 probably. Instead they had 3 improbable wins to win the gold medal.
I'm telling all...since there are no real valid claims of Mr. Mushtare cheating that I have heard of.... Revel in his accomplishment....drink it in...Picture it as your own....Picture you doing the same thing.
Picture continuing to throw strikes to number 43(1 more than Tony Rovitini)...Picture being nervous doing it! Picture them handing you a check for $40,000...picture gulping and sweating before that 36th shot...picture letting it flow and letting it happen and throwing that 36th strike...picture making your most difficult spare for $40,000 in the 10th shaking all the way!
Watch youself in that movie right before you go to bed.... Do it for 40 days and picture it again when you wake up!
Then when that hot day comes...step aside...let it happen become part of the movie you've already created watch yourself in the movie you've already creeated doing everything you've already expected...go neither forward or back in time....You've been waiting for this to happen remember!?
Now you just experienced what Jack Nicklaus did for a career what Arnold Palmer and now Tiger Woods have done for a decade....what the US hockey team of 1980 wants you to know! And even Luckylefty has tasted of this dizzying elixer called forget the probablilities and do everything your body is capable of about 4 times! UmmmmmmUmmmmm! I'll drink to that again!

But Mushtare is not the poster child for that philosophy. By claiming to shoot 4 900's, he has tarnished any belief he shot 1. Because of that, he's a fake until proven otherwise. What he claims to have done has not been done by ANYONE in ANY SPORT, EVER! Machines haven't even done it.
BTW, the 900 you referred to above was Darren Pomije from New Prague, MN. on 12/09/04 and he shot it in league with lots of witnesses. That's no problem. The ABC even validated the 900 on the next day. Compare that turnaround with what's going on with Mushtare.
Post by: LuckyLefty on February 06, 2006, 11:43:05 PM
I heard there were witnesses to the second 900.
Clearly witnesses to the 852.
Also....I'm frankly surprised it has not been done more...
BUT people tighten up... Saw one tonight.
Guy throwing perfectly...tightened up....chest looked tight...armswing different...gasping for breath.
Of course if all he did was visualize the shot right there of course he would be tight.
BUT if instead he had prepared for accomplishment...or winning by running vivid images in his mind before sleep...to stimulate dreams of the same thing.
Psychopsybernetics tell us that the brain cannot distinguish between vivid images created in and for the mind and real events....That the brain then like a computer replays these stored images and if they are of success it then believes they are just as true as if they had happened.
Some say one can't bowl under the stress of going for a championship unless you has gotten their before! One can't bowl for a 300 unless you've threatened several times!!!! Hogwash to all! Instead one can mentally create these detailed "movie" images in the brain....over and over and over off the lanes...before bed and in the morning before rising! Convincing the mind that it has experienced "THIS" before and previewing and creating a Database of coming through in these situations....Often dramatically above the performers "Average" or "Probability".
The body is now NOT SURPRISED and the typical gasping for air and stained look on the face does not have to become a part of trying to win!
Ready to set personal records? Ready to win? Have you mentally trained to set records when the hot days come? Have you mentally trained to win! Are you ready to accept your hot days!
Everyday I see examples of people...organizations getting in their own way!
Getting in the way of their accomplishment..."I can't do this...I've been bowling above average for 2 days??"!"!

I bet you his Dad would accept your $500 dollar offer at his home house per game.
If I were a betting man, I'd bet he'd come out on top in his home house over the long run. What do you guys think..? =:^D

Is is so hard to believe that the kid is trying to lie and/or cheat to get a scholarship to college? Sounds as if he's already trying...

You think Bobby Perfecto has ever seen the movie "Single White Female"?
Since if he stops short, you may be able to tell us what he had for breakfast, combined with the possibility that he's seen the movie.........well, if I were Bobby Perfecto, I'd be very scared!!!!!

Also 255 in his current league!
I have no affiliation with the kid except I know the small town he is from as my Mother is from there...smalltown type of down home people.
I've seen his video and I believe it! Others who have seen it have messaged me and said..."We agree with you...statistically probable or not...this looks like the type of style that kills house shots!" I'm also impressed by his calm demeanor and way of handlking himself in the few statements I saw him make in the newscast that I saw out here on teh web.

Maybe it's for the recognition? Maybe he thought he could step his game up a bit by everyone knowing him now (as everyone who bowls for sport knows him now) and he's now recognizable and everything. I'm sure there's someone out there who is going to believe it all or like what they see within him and offer him things they wouldn't have before, solely because of his "accomplishments."
A few years back, there was a student from UC Berkley trying out for American Idol. His name is William Hung. He has got to be one of the worst singers to ever try to make music vocally (and he wasn't exactly the best thing to look at, either). But look at him now. He gets recognized everywhere he goes, and he has his own record deal and an album out! He's now a multimillionaire for his *singing.* Record dealers knew he would be recognized, and they were right.
Maybe good ol' Robby and his family thought about this sort of thing, as well. I can assure you he will always be known, whether its through his great feats or infamous lies. But he will be known, which is, itself, an accomplishment for any average Joe.

Does that mean he has sets of under 375 every now and then??
Talk about being able to turn it on/off at any time!!!

Actually, reading is a strong point. I used to spell like you and butcher grammar like you, but then I got Hooked on Phonics. Whose, who's, you're, your, yore, there, they're, their, it's, its, yes...you can learn the correct uses, too!!!! It worked for me!! That is, of course, right after I expanded my lifestyle by getting the Little Rascal. Now I can be a little rascal on my Little Rascal!!
Now, off of the senseless joviality, and onto one of the matters at hand. There
seems to be a lot of "He said, she said", speculation and hearsay going on. "You didn't see this" and "He didn't see that" and "Just watch his video" (by the way, 211 is not a whole lot nowadays, even for a very talented teenager. You see, I kan reed!!!) are the latest mantras of these idol-worshipping zealots.
But, no one has seen this. Yes, there are affidavits. Has anyone seen those affidavits? Moreover, anyone other than the USBC?
LL and the other kao-tao'ing drones, do you recall if, in 1997, Jeremy Sonnenfeld (sp?), the first (I believe) recognized 900 series owner, went through this much guff? After all, he was the FIRST!! He was the gold standard!! He broke down that wall, that misguided perception of perfection never able to be attained. That was virtually 10 years ago!!! Before we were all so knowledgeable.........before we were all such professionals............before we had the latest hook-out-of-the-box equipment........before we were even worthy of carrying li'l 7-year-old Bobby Perfecto's bag into the center........and he never once had it questioned by the ABC!!!!!
So then, why now? Why all this doubt? Why all this second-guessing? With guys not even as 1/4 good as Bobby Perfecto tossing 9's, why is someone as good as Bobby Perfecto even being questioned by the sanctioning body? Hasn't this made you think at all? Maybe the USBC DID watch his video.................
I think I have to call Bravo Sierra on this one............

Hope everything is spelled right?
255 in his own league ...I believe 211 in a traveling league.
REgards,
Luckylefty
PS. There is no doubt that it defies MOST peoples imagination....but not his!
THE point!
PPS again for all....what would be your mindset if he had 4 897s?
OR four 879s??? or 1 900 and 3 879s?? Different?

I think his next goal is 18 hole-in-one in a raw XD using a the STORM plastic Golf ball >.>

Tom Doty in 1973 shot 10 under par for 4 holes!
Homero Blancas shot 55.
Shigeki Muryama shot 58 on a US open qualifying site course(not usually so easy)
AND there are stories on this website of some guy from the midwest with a score of 4X for 18???? I don't remember the details!
Some have conceived of this ...Pia Nilsson who coaches Annika Sorenstam has a website for golf called Vision 54(all things relating to birdieing every hole in a golf round).
Vision 54 (http://"http://www.coachingforthefuture.com/PRODUCT54/product54.html")
What a fascinating difference between a sport where the people are so positive that they seek virtual perfection versus ours which disdains it!
Example when Annika Sorenstam shot 59 on the ladies tour ...no one got into the relative difficulty or non difficulty of the course.
But the umbrage and personal insult above regarding multiple 900s being shot..
"Why the shot must have been..."
What a difference between the two sports!
