Posting as a general for discusion / opinions.
IDK but when I look at these standings over the years kinda looks likes the pre-50s bowlers had more game then us now with their primitive straight balls and on lacquer and shellac finishes.

A lot of records were set on shellac pre 1950. They lasted for many years. If those scores were a measure of skill it would make bowling the only activity where players didn't progress over the years.
