None - that's why they are on TV and I'm a house hack.

I want to say Pete Weber but I'm probably closer to Steve Jaros....without his talent.  

If I had to pick one.

 There goes my opinions.  I would probably have to say form wise a little like Ryan Shafer with the straigter leg at the line and release.  NoseofRI can maybe agree or not. But unfortunatly I am probably half as accurate.

I don't think he is exempt anymore, but Jason Hurd. Big guy, 7 steps, the whole thing.

Good question.  Here's a video of me bowling.  I'm not really sure who I would say I'm closest to as far as style goes...  What do you guys think?

(FYI, my swing is a touch different now than this video: a little less acceleration up at the bottom of the swing, and just a little less axis tilt)

I'd probably have to disagree from what I remember.  Your approach was much slower tempo than Shafer along with having a higher backswing.  That's unless of course you've completely changed from coming back from your hiatus.

I would say I am like a left handed Norm Duke with far less talent.
  Or the closest lefty would have to be Scroggins.

I don't know who my style can represent, don't really care to know. I just do my own thing and not worry about it.
